Greetings! :-)

Need your help on how to secure daytime shows through the week. I have a potential recruit who is interested but WILL NOT drive at night and will do some Saturday/Sunday shows, but is more interested in how to do this during the week/during the day.

Anyone tapped into that market? If so, please post how you were able find/develop leads for this very specific time slot.

Thanks in advance!

i would love to do that too trying to advert weekday brunch when kids are at school. no bites yet
 
I have seen posts from those who are successful doing Express Lunch shows at local businesses, etc. Maybe she should start there and see how things go for her. If she's willing to do some Saturday/Sunday shows, but only wants to do a couple of Saturdays per month or whatnot, she can have multiple shows at one place at one time.. each host would get the orders from their respective guests to count towards their show sales.. (megashow)..
 
What about the play groups?She should target play groups or like a consultant mentioned on a CD I heard yesterday that she was successful with targeting parents at Burger King or McDonalds. The ones with the playlands, around lunch time.

Hope this helps!
 
Andrea has a good point! Mom's groups are always looking for new things to do, and they love pre-nap shows. I actually just booked a pre-nap show at 11am, but it is on a Saturday. Good luck with this and I would love to see if it works out!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some effective strategies for booking daytime shows during the week?

To effectively book daytime shows, consider reaching out to stay-at-home parents, retirees, or individuals with flexible work schedules. Utilize social media to promote your shows, and offer incentives for hosting during the week, such as exclusive discounts or free products. Networking with local community groups or organizations can also help you find potential hosts.

How can I approach potential hosts about booking a daytime show?

When approaching potential hosts, emphasize the benefits of hosting a daytime show, such as a more relaxed atmosphere and the opportunity to invite friends who may not be available in the evenings. Be enthusiastic and share your own experiences of hosting daytime shows to illustrate how enjoyable and successful they can be.

What types of themes or topics work best for daytime shows?

Daytime shows can benefit from themes that cater to specific audiences, such as quick and easy meals for busy parents, healthy cooking for fitness enthusiasts, or baking sessions for retirees. Tailoring your presentation to the interests of your audience can make the show more appealing and increase attendance.

How can I promote my daytime shows to increase attendance?

Promote your daytime shows through local community boards, social media platforms, and email newsletters. Create engaging posts that highlight the fun and educational aspects of the show, and encourage hosts to invite their friends. Consider offering a small giveaway or incentive for attendees to boost interest and attendance.

What should I do if I struggle to find hosts for daytime shows?

If you're struggling to find hosts, consider expanding your network by attending local events or joining community groups. Additionally, reach out to past hosts and ask if they know anyone who might be interested. Offering flexible hosting options, such as virtual shows, can also help attract more hosts who may be hesitant about in-person gatherings.
