Hi all I just thought of something to maybe find some leads outside my current circle which has been an upward struggle for me. I currently have a show booked for May 18th with a co worker where I will not know any other guests so I'm hoping to do well then. I had a show May 10th with someone I didn't know (lead from catolog show). That has been postponed till June. I don't want to wait for those shows to find more leads. I just need help on what I could offer for this idea I'm going to try.

Basically I'm sending an email to all my friends that have hosted or ordered from me already. I'm asking them to give me contact info for someone I don't know that may be interested in hosting or the oppurtunity or even an order. I'm just not sure what would be good incentives. I was thinking like gift certificates or something of that nature. Maybe a free product if a show is booked and they place an order on that show. Etc. etc. I just want more ideas and feedback from more seasoned consultants. Thanks

That sounds like a great idea!

Maybe offer them a 10 percent discount on their order, or an extra 10 percent if they're a past host ...

Or tell them their names will be put into a drawing when they respond by a certain date ... And the one you draw will win a free product on top of the discount, if you get enough responses.

I think I'm going to try this too ...

Hi there,I think your idea of reaching out to your friends for leads is a great idea. It's always good to expand your network and tap into potential new customers and hosts.As for incentives, I think gift certificates or free products are great ideas. You could also offer a discount on their next order or a special hostess gift if they refer someone who ends up hosting a show. Another idea could be to have a referral program where if someone refers a certain number of people who end up hosting or placing an order, they receive a bigger reward.You could also consider reaching out to local businesses or organizations and offering them a special discount for hosting a show or placing a large order. This could potentially open up a whole new pool of leads for you.Overall, I think it's important to get creative with your incentives and make them appealing to your potential leads. Good luck with your upcoming shows and I hope these ideas help you find more success!
