A friend of mine post-poned her Cooking Show with me because 2 of her co-workers hosted shows within 10 weeks of each other by collecting upto $10 a week for 10 weeks. So each guest - 10 of them had $100 to spend.

I'm thinking about using this idea for my Mom's Groups and hosting a Club Show 1x every 8 weeks with a minimum of 6 to 11 people with 1 person being drawn as the Host for the show.

I think the smart thing to do would be to have everyone create a Wish List add tax and shipping and divide that by 8 to get a minimum weekly savings amount. I think if I set up a savings account, and put in what money each club member saved in P3, and gave receipts with updated balances that I could successfully have 4 $500 - $1000 cooking shows a year.

Thoughts?
 
I see some potential...I am going to have to put some thought into it before I can really say much though! Thanks for the idea!
 
There was a thread on here a few months back that has a whole bunch of discussion and ideas for this. You may could search and find it.

Thanks! I had no idea! I'll definitely check!
 
LayawayI think that doing a sort of layaway is a great idea. After all it doesn't seem so bad to spend $100 or more when you only give $20 a week. I have used this idea to sell cookware to some ladies and my hostess waited until all payments were made to have this count for her show. It was a good $1,000 show for me.

Here are some flyers I typically use, you can change them to suit your needs. And you can change the amount from $200, $150 to $100 and you can change the number of payments made. This is just to give you an idea.
