August $1K Mystery Host Show: Boost Bookings and Increase Sales!

[jessicafawn]

Hello Everyone... I'm putting together a mystery host show for August to try and have a nice big end to the Spring/Summer season and thought I'd post a flyer I modified (original from chefkrisb) with different benefits for more bookings or bigger sales...

I hope it goes well... I have 5 signed up so far.

ummm.........one question...........who gets the bamboo bowl?



Cindi.

No Shipping charges? You are going to eat the 4.00 for every order?

Jessica I love it. But can you convert it to word?

 

[chefkugler]

Yes, do you have this in Word???
Thanks

 

[ktcn_2lz]

Or maybe someone else has the ability to convert this to word for us. It is very nicely done.

 

[jessicafawn]

I have it in word too... I hope no one has problems with the text boxes because I use a mac... I'll post it now... As far as the bamboo bowl, I'm going to raffle it off for those that get more then $150 in orders or get bookings... For the shipping... it's only free for the 10 hosts that sign up to participate... not for those buying from them... I should reword that so they understand.

I've updated both with the bamboo bowl raffle info & the S&H info...

 

[jessicafawn]

So I have 4 people signed up so far... as long as I have more signed up with orders by the 22nd I should be good... otherwise I'll have to change the rewards... anyone have any ideas on how to split the rewards without having 10 participants... ? I know many cheffers here have had mystery host shows with split rewards... your input would be greatly appreciated.

 

[nicki25]

you might not have to split the rewards down. I did my mystery host show during July and I only had 6 people participate but the show ended at $1750. Maybe those that you have scheduled will get more in orders and you will still end up with $1000.

Nice flyers!

You need to correct "price" (1/2 price items)

 

[momoftwins]

I want to do that but trying to include it in my August newsletter

 

[lisagoins]

Just a thought--instead of putting it in your August newsletter, you might want to try a separate email--I tried it in March in my newsletter, and only had one response. THis time, I did a separate email, and I've got all 10 hosts signed up--three within 5 minutes of sending the message. I think the first time, it just got buried in the newletter and nobody paid any attention.

 

[momoftwins]

yeah I think that happened to me one time too - the only problem is I want to get them both out today - I may send the newsletter now and the mystery host tomorrow.

Has anyone done this with September's Specials?

 

[jessicafawn]

I haven't done it with September's specials but I can if you'd like... I don't plan on doing a mystery show but I don't mind changing the image and text for you...

 

[Humble Beginnings]

Thank you Jessica. I had some time on my hands, kids on vacation with their dad, so I tweaked the one I had saved. Found here of course, Cyndi from Canada did one a while back. I'll post in case anyone else may be interested. Hoping it works, how did your's go?

 

[jessicafawn]

Oh I like that one so much better... I've got to save that one. Thanks for posting.

 

[jessicafawn]

For those that have done a mystery host show, how do you give the hosts the 10% for the year... do you just enter their discount code for their future orders??? I don't know if HO checks the name against the actual host...

 

[Humble Beginnings]

I had a host order from a recent show. When I enter her name and pulled from my contacts in automatically uploaded her host# and gave her the discount. Real simple in P3.

 

[jessicafawn]

How does it know who participated in a mystery host show when you're splitting all the host benefits? Unless I do them all as co-hosts but will it allow me to do up to 10 of them? Hmmmm, I guess I'll just have to try. WML.

 

[Humble Beginnings]

Oh I misunderstood I thought you meant how to do you give past host participating in the mystery host their 10% off what they buy. I don't think the 10% applies when you do the mystery host unless you do it for them personally when they order throughout the year.

 

[jessicafawn]

I had my Mystery Host Reveal today and had just under 1K for the show with 7 participants... I made a lot of food, which was a lot of work but everyone enjoyed themselves and they want me to do it again. I think I'll do it twice a year... when the new cattys come out. Thanks for all of your support and I hope everyone has a great experience with the Mystery Host Show.

I am so excited I tried the Mystery Host Show this month!!! Right now I have 9 out of my 10 participating hosts orders and the guest sales are over $1600!! I am calling them tomorrow to tell each of them which host benefit they won and then they have until Saturday to decide what they each want!! I've gotten lots of requests to do this again!!! YAY!!

 

[Pamulia]

Thanks for posting. I am "borrowing" your flyer.
