I heard of a flyer that could be posted in a grocery store (or the like) that had a recipe on it with one ingredient missing....and the intention is to get the reader interested enough to call you for the missing ingredient thereby giving you the opportunity to book a show.

Does this ring a bell in anyone's mind? If so, could you provide the details?

Thanks, in advance!

Maria....that idea came from the Lemonade Lady at conference. I don't remember what I have in my notes, but here are my notes from Christie Northrup at Conference.
