How Can I Increase Bookings for my Business this Mother's Day?

[ChltNCRenee]

Hello all... I just started signed with PC a lil under a month ago and am getting ready to close my first show this week

I did get one booking form that show and I am very excited. I am trying to think "outside, inside and around the box" to come up with ways to increase bookings so I can reach those incentives in June and July

Here is my dilema
At my church we usually give out a rose or some kind of flower to all the mothers on Mother's Day.

I am trying to come up with something I can attach to all these flowers to help get some bookings this June and July.

Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas?
Should I give something away? How do I word this?

Anyone do something like this before?

I really have learned alot from all of you and your support is priceless
Thanks
Renee

I give away a lot of truffles... They are pretty easy once you get the hang of them. And I can bag them in the little clear bags from the craft store and make them look really special. I have made lots of different kinda over the years, one of the most popular being Oreo . You take a package of Oreo cookies (or any kind) chop them with your food chopper then mix them with an 8 oz block of cream cheese. Use the small scoop to make balls and coat them in chocolate. (1 bag chips, about 2-3 tbl crisco, 1 minute in the microwave) Then I use white chocolate chips, a little bit of crisco and a ziploc bag to drizzle the tops. They come out looking really nice. People offen are surprised that I made them myself. If you need one that can sit out longer you can use quick fudge. 1 bag chips and 1 tub frosting, micro for one minute, stir and let cool until set and scoop into balls and coat

Sorry for the long post, I hope that helps!

Hi Renee, congratulations on your first show and getting a booking from it! That's a great start. I think your idea of attaching something to the Mother's Day flowers is a great way to potentially get more bookings. Here are a few ideas:1. Offer a special discount or incentive for anyone who books a show with you on Mother's Day. This could be something like a free product or a percentage off their order.2. Attach a small card or tag to the flowers with a catchy phrase like "Treat yourself to a fun girls' night in! Book a party with me and get pampered with free products and discounts."3. Consider giving away a small gift or sample to each mother who receives a flower. This could be something related to your products or a small token of appreciation.4. Use social media to promote your Mother's Day bookings. Create a post or graphic that showcases your Mother's Day special and encourage your friends and followers to share it with their friends and family.5. Don't be afraid to directly ask for bookings. You could say something like, "As a thank you for all the mothers out there, I'm offering a special discount for anyone who books a party with me on Mother's Day. Who do you know that would love a fun night in with friends and free products?"I hope these ideas help and good luck with your bookings! Keep thinking outside the box and I'm sure you'll reach your incentives in no time.
