Becky, you have to tell us how you did before you leave for vacation! Also, just to warn you they are shipping really fast, I don't remember exactly how long you will be gone for but the orders will come quickly after you submit them.
 
One of my hosts called earlier to tell me she has a booking. Another lady she works with wants to do a book party this month to get the mandoline on sale:thumbup:
 
UGGG....Mine was supposed to end yesterday. Only got 2 to turn in their orders so far. Called the others and they are like "can you give me a few more days.."
I would close, but am only at $300 sales!!

I'm having a hard time getting hosts to give me their orders!

I ended up with only 7 turning their orders in - it's weird, because I know (or at least they told me) that the other 2 had orders to turn in. I guess if they do it now, I can do a mini mystery host show for them....

But I have 3 hosts who are "Having a hard time deciding...."......
 
You're leaving today, right Becky? Hope you have time to update us, but if not we'll be excited to hear your results when you get home!
Have a wonderful vacation:)

LOL - just coming on to update - because we are getting ready to leave right now!

I had a couple hosts I didn't hear back from.....crazy - because I am almost certain they had orders....maybe life just got too busy. I can't hold it open, because I won't be back until July.....soooo, with what I have turned in, I will be closing my Mystery Host Show at:

$1218.40!

I am thrilled! Everyone who participated wants to do it again - so I will be doing one in November too.


Now - gotta finish getting ready to leave - DH wants to be pulling out in one hour!:eek:
 
Great Job Becky!!
 
Congrats Becky - that is awesome!
 
WOO HOO BECKY!!! Congrats on the great show! That's awesome!

Now, I didn't get anymore interest....gotta get on the phone! If it happens that there's not enough time, I'll just close in July. Not the end of the world. Will do it again at the beginning of the next sell-a-thon! :)
 
I have 8 who just ordered the $100 themselves I'm encouraging them to collect orders
 
Wow Becky! Great job!! I am definitely going to use this as I was thinking of doing it anyway! I only had 1 show on the books for this month and really want to at least make level 1 of sell a thon!

I need to get a June newsletter out but may just only do this instead!! I don't think people will respond to it as well if it is in the newsletter!
 
Man, I just missed your post Becky! Fantastic show! Glad to hear it worked so well for you, even with 8 people....or was it just 6 that turned in orders?

My first host turned in her orders to me yesterday; she got $138 in sales. Plus, she got a booking, & that lady is working on this month too:thumbup:

Wow! Awesome!!!
 
Woohoo!! That is awesome. I need to get on the phone with some of my old hosts and get something like this going. Wow. What a great success! :)
 
Okay, so mine didn't work out so great...only had one interested party. So, I decided to put it off to the fall for the fall sell-a-thon. Now, my goal is to have my July and August fully booked by the end of this month...wish me luck! :)
 
Well mine was a bust, so to speak.
Will be closing out at around $600
Better than nothing I guess, just not what I expected or needed. Now I doubt I get to the Level one sell a thon. I will be $300 shy.
 
Maybe better luck this fall for you gals!

Over the weekend, I got a 9th participant. Another host is bringing me her orders today, & I talked to another one who has about 200 in orders...
 
Good job, Lacy! I'm hoping for a better fall one. I think I'll be better prepared the next time! :)
 
Thanks! I've got my fingers crossed that I'll be over 1K!
 
This is my 3rd one in 4 months - so I knew it would be great - but I also knew it would give me a few hundred extra in sales. My other 2 were VERY successful ($2,600 and $1,500). I ran my first one with my Open House and my second one with HWC. This time I handed out 'invitations' for my Mystery Host Show and got a a few people respond - but most people just ordered little things.

I ALWAYS break up the Host Benefits so that EVERYONE gets something. People LOVE getting things for free! And will EASILY collect extra orders to get FREE product/GC.....

September, December, March, and June are GREAT months to do a Mystery Host :)
 
Glad to hear you've had good success with it Jenna!
I've had several online orders today; so far turned in I have around 340 in sales.
 
Becky,

I hope you don't mind, but I used your version almost word for word. I received $1058 in guest sales. So my sell-a-thon month will end over $3000. I am so excited. Thank you for starting this post!
 
That's great Wendy!

I'm so super-excited about mine too....so far I'm at 938:sing: And, I still have 5 hosts to turn in the rest of their orders!!! Wo-hoo:thumbup:
 
Wendy and Lacy...you guys ROCK! That's awesome! Here's hoping for $2K for ya, Lacy!! :D
 
Good job EVERYONE! WOO HOO!!!! :)

Thanks! Now, that would rock:thumbup:I forgot to mention; one of my hosts that turned in her orders yesterday ordered 430 herself! (stuff for her camper, including a cookware set!)
 
I am getting ready to send out my email for a July sale. Hopefully it will go as well as the ones on here!!
 
Nicki - if your Show isn't going as planned by the middle of the month - then you might need to call people to followup. I have found tons of people ARE interested - they just haven't had the time yet ---- remember people get busy :) - especially THIS time of year!
 
Closing mine today with guest sales of $711.25
Not bad considering 4 dropped out at the last minute when I called to get their orders.:D
 
I should do this next month! It's a little too late this month but with me having two vacations in July, there isn't much time to hold shows.
