I have taken a break for PC the past year, as I had some other commitments I needed to focus on, and I am just now getting back into it. I am sending out an email to announce my grand re-opening and wanted to offer some specials for people who purchased or booked shows. Any fun ideas?
 
I don't typically offer too much as far as specials go. Our host benefits are so good I don't think it needs supplemented. I might just list all the hosting benefits. If anything, maybe you could offer to buy the ingredients for their show if they book during your grand re-opening?
 
You could offer a free rub to the first 5 people who book and hold shows from you. I currently give all my hosts how have 6 outside orders their choice of a free cookbook from me--I have many $1000 shows.
 
I figure the outside orders more than pays for the cookbook, which I put on the host order and get her discount, and make commission on it.
 
Hi there! Welcome back to the world of PC! It's great to hear that you're getting back into it and revamping your business. As for some fun ideas for your grand re-opening, here are a few suggestions:1. Host a "Welcome Back" party for your past customers and hostesses. Offer a special discount or free gift for attending and make it a fun and celebratory event.2. Create a "Re-Opening Bundle" with some of your top-selling products at a discounted price. This can be a great way to entice customers to make a purchase and get excited about your return.3. Offer a "Book and Cook" special where customers can book a show with you during a specific time frame and receive a free gift or discount on their purchase.4. Create a referral program where your past customers and hostesses can refer friends and family to book a show with you and receive a reward for each successful booking.5. Have a limited-time flash sale on some of your popular products or offer a discount code for online purchases.Hope these ideas help and best of luck with your grand re-opening! Happy cooking!
