I've decided to give it a go! I've recruited 3 people recently which means I've lost some shows (I give them their own show as their first) and the residual bookings from that show. I've also been letting them work my booths for bookings & sales to help get their new businesses off the ground. My bookings have taken a hit! I have ONE show in December.
I thought about giving away a certain item for each day, but I don't want someone to say that the 4th is the ONLY day that they could do it, but that they already have ____ item. You know? So I've decided to give away FPV. This way they could CHOOSE what they wanted. And I really don't expect to have a participant for every day, but if I get 12 volunteers or more, I'll certainly take them!!!
I've done a calendar in my newsletter and here's what I'm offering for the first 12 days of December:
(Dec 1) On the 1st Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $25.00 in extra Free Product Value
(Dec 2) On the 2nd Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $24.00 in extra Free Product Value
(Dec 3) On the 3rd Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $23.00 in extra Free Product Value
(Dec 4) On the 4th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $22.00 in extra Free Product Value
(Dec 5) On the 5th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $21.00 in extra Free Product Value (Cooking shows get $25)
(Dec 6) On the 6th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $20.00 in extra Free Product Value (Cooking Shows get $25)
(Dec 7) On the 7th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $19.00 in extra Free Product Value
(Dec 8) On the 8th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $18.00 in extra Free Product Value
(Dec 9) On the 9th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $16.00 in extra Free Product Value
(Dec 10) On the 10th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $14.00 in extra Free Product Value

(Dec 12) On the 12th Day of Christmas if you host a Catalog Show with me you'll get $10.00 in extra Free Product Value (Cooking Shows get $20)
What ever day they CLOSE their December show will be the "host" date. I figured by starting high & going low, it would encourage them to book at the beginning of the event and not towards the end!
Have any of you ever tried the "12 Days of Christmas" and if so, please provide feedback.
