Maximizing Party Profits: Tips for Hosting a Successful Raffle Event

[Myjenny]

Hello everyone! My name is Jennifer and I am fairly new to PC (just completed my 30 days) and have a host that wants to have party in May for a business boost or public relations for people (offices) that buy her medical supplies. So instead of earning the free and discounted products herself she wants to raffle it off to her guests. She was asking how that would work and to be honest I am really not to sure on what to do. I asked about how many people there would be and she said about 10, so then I told her that she should get as many outside orders from family and friends to boost up the 'pot'. This is actually a friend who is doing this, so I would really like to make this work for her.

I have been reading alot on here and you all have such great advice, so I knew I had to come on here and ask what would you do in this situation.

Thanks for your help!!

You could probably do it like a Mystery Host show. So your friend would not be the host, whoever won would go under the host name!

I agree with you though,I would really have her talk about the 10 bringing friends, and even getting outside orders, and have your friend get lots of outside orders.

This could be fun!

Yeah the mystery host sounds like the best option. I am going to maybe talk to her about the possibility of the offices 'competing' for the highest number of sales per office and the winning office gets to stock their break room with the free and discounted items. Does this sound hokey?

What are everyones thoughts on this idea?? :thumbup: or :thumbdown:
