I am planning to do a mystery host show this month, since I am having trouble getting bookings, and I need to jump start my sales. I am wondering how long you usually have your mystery host shows last (those of you who have done them)?

Thanks,
Trina

anyone????
 
We just talked about this the other day and Barb Duke said 2 weeks is optimum. Otherwise the excitement will wear off. And don't let it go till the end of the month. Give yourself enough time to sort the orders and get everything entered in. Good luck!

Thanks for responding! I was thinking to do it for one week...I have a three day weekend and so I have time to be more available to coach...is one week too little? I agree that doing it over the course of a month would be way too long!
 


Hi Trina,Mystery host shows are a great way to boost your sales and get more bookings. In my experience, I usually have my mystery host shows last for about 2-3 hours. This gives enough time for guests to arrive, mingle, and place their orders. It also allows for some time to play games and do product demonstrations. However, the length of the show ultimately depends on your personal preference and the number of guests you have. I would recommend planning for at least 2 hours and adjusting accordingly based on the size of your group. Good luck with your mystery host show! Best,
