Cute Ideas for Booking Shows & Arranging Show Order

[feather18]

Hey what are your cute ideas for getting booking? i want to do something cute for my upcoming shows. I liked the basket idea, with incentive to book.. but what else do you use?

Also, how do you arrange your show order? Has any of you done the Power cooking show? I thought that idea was soo good, and want to try it, but i dont know yet. I want the show to be shorter, but good. ideas?
thanks ahead of time!:love:

I try not to offer to much extra incentive for bookings...I used to but it never really led to more shows, or higher performing shows. I make some exceptions but they are pretty rare now.

With our new catalog just out, the "booking boost" that I offer is for the host and their friends to be "some of the first to see the awesome new products!" I also mention the fantastic cookware host bonus this month and the 2 stoneware pieces in October. I focus on the fact that this IS the time of the year where folks are makign lists for entertaining needs, gift purchases, baking plans, etc. so most people welcome an invite to a show! I am just super enthusiastic about the new catalog and the bookings are floowing from that.

You'll probably get lots of other ideas though so good luck and happy booking!

You could try the Halloween treat bag and maybe put a coupon in it for a free show.

You could also offer an incentive to your host where they would get the Small Bar Pan with 1 booking, then upgrade to the Medium Bar Pan with 2 bookings, or upgrade to the Large Bar Pan with 3 bookings. You could also do this with the Round Stones.

Hi there! I love coming up with creative and cute ideas for getting bookings. One idea I have is to create a "booking tree" where you draw a tree on a poster board and add leaves with the names of people who have booked a show. You can also add incentives to this, such as a free gift for the person who books the most shows or a discount on their own show. Another idea is to send out cute invitations to potential guests, with a special offer for anyone who books a show at the event.

As for show order, I like to start with a fun icebreaker game to get everyone in a good mood, then move on to demonstrating a few quick and easy recipes. After that, I like to do a hands-on activity where guests can try making a dish themselves. Finally, I end with a special offer for anyone who books a show that day.

I have not personally done the Power cooking show, but I have heard great things about it. It's a great way to showcase the versatility of our products and get guests excited about hosting their own show. If you decide to try it, let me know how it goes! And remember, the most important thing is to have fun and make sure your guests are enjoying themselves. Good luck with your upcoming shows!
