I have been thinking about doing something for customer's birthday month specials. For the last month or so I have been having customers write their birthday month on the back of the drawing slip, but I haven't decided what to do with this bit of information.
Should I give a discount (10 or 15% off)? Free Shipping? Do you do anything? Do you have any suggestions?
 
I haven't, but it sounds like a great idea to me! Maybe offer a "free show" where you bring the recipe ingredients?
 
I use birthdayalarm.com. People can sign up there. (They provide a link for you to share.) I receive an email a week before the birthday and again the day before the birthday. The day before or day of the birthday I send an email wishing them a happy birthday and offering 15% off anything they order for the next month.

Do you do this for hosts only or any guest who signs up? Do you have much of a response?
 
thats a good idea :] I might add this to my show
 
Anyone who visits my website has the opportunity to sign up. People love it, though I rarely have more than 1 person every couple of months who takes advantage of the discount.
