I had a show on Tuesday, and had the guests fill out the Guest Care Cards, where I ask for an email address on the bottom if they want to be added to my newsletter, and none of the guests gave me an email address!!
This is what I have on my Care Card:
"Would you like to join my Preferred Customer list and receive recipes/info by email?
Please write your email address below:
______________________________________________
Monthly newsletter (recipes/specials/tips) •
Weekly recipe •
I’ll NEVER share your email address with others nor will I send you jokes/forwards/etc"
I wanted to start sending out Joy's "Weekly Dish", so I thought I'd give the option of the monthly/weekly newsletter.
The only email address I got from the entire show (7 guests) was from one
website order...
Am I not presenting this in the right way? Maybe I should offer to send them the show recipe AND the monthly newsletter if they give me their email address??
In any case, because I don't do a huge amount of phone follow-up with guests who haven't shown any interest in booking a show (I try to do an out-of-box call), I feel I lose them as a customer if I don't get them on my newsletter list...
Any advice?
