Thank you, Bobbi. I think I figured it out. I really appreciate your input. I want to do this to finish up January. I'm so nervous about doing the prizes correctly based on the January hostess special. Would really appreciate opinions on the following set up. Of course, I will include the disclaimer that these must be adjusted if we don't reach the $1,000

GRAND PRIZE - $200 in FREE Product, plus a 10% discount for one year
Second Place - $80 in FREE Product, plus a 10% discount for one year
Three people will each win $50 in FREE Product, plus a FREE set of Microwave Grips
Four People will win 50% off ANY ONE product of their choice (including cookware sets, or any other product in the catalog!)
One will win 60% off their choice of the Salad & Berry Spinner OR the Manual Food Processor OR the Digital Food Scale OR the Food Chopper.PLUS - each volunteer will receive FREE the "Make It Fresh, Make It Healthy" cookbook AND 30% off your individual order!
 
I think it sounds good! But definitely add the disclaimer. Let us know how it goes.
 
I sent out this email last night after seeing it here. I already have 6 volunteer hosts. A couple of them said "I will try" and then one "doesn't do shows" so I am not sure how helpful they are going to be. I am going to try to push them and give good host coaching. I guess I am just sick of hearing people's excuses. ITS FREE PEOPLE!!!
 
Thanks Deb. I do have the disclaimer on it. Getting ready to send it out now! Fingers crossed this goes as well as the others on here. You guys are awesome on here for encouragement and inspiration!
 
looks good, I am doing this now :)
 
This is what I just emailed out... Hoping it will work!!! 2014 is starting off with a BANG! and January is nearly over! I have some HUGE goals this year with my Pampered Chef business, one of which is to earn a free trip for my family to Walt Disney World with the Pampered Chef. So - I need your help! (and you will be well rewarded for helping me out!) I am asking for 10 volunteers to participate in my $1000 Mystery Host Catalog Show! Everyone will get a free thank you gift as well as earn one of these FABULOUS prizes.GRAND PRIZE - $200 in FREE Product, plus a 10% discount for one year
Second Place - $80 in FREE Product
Third Place - Three people will each win $50 in FREE Product
Four People will win 50% off ANY ONE product of their choice (including cookware sets, or any other product in the catalog!)
One will win 60% off their choice of the Salad & Berry Spinner OR the Manual Food Processor OR the Digital Food Scale OR the Food Chopper. PLUS - each volunteer will receive FREE "Seasons Best" recipe book AND 30% off your individual order (once you have collected $100 in orders)!!! Here is the scoop - I need 10 people willing to collect just $100 in orders (10 x $100 = $1000!) - you can do this by passing around a catalog at work, or in your neighborhood, at kid’s sports events, family gatherings, etc. and I can also provide an announcement you can email to friends and family. Each person qualifies for the drawing by collecting at least $100 in orders and each one qualified will win one of the 10 prizes. Once I receive all the orders and tally them, I will then a blind drawing for the Show Host benefits.Gather $150 in orders and you will receive an extra chance in the 1st - 3rd place drawing (an additional chance will be given for each $50 in sales over $100). Schedule a party for someone (or book your own party!) and you will also receive an extra chance.Respond by _noon, Jan 21st , and receive a FREE Cookbook. I need to hear soon, so that I can get your Show Information to you ASAP! I need all orders turned in by Noon, January 31st. (any turned in later will not be able to be counted as part of the show - sorry!) All orders will be shipped to me, and I will sort, pack, and label your orders for you & deliver them to you. (I will be in the Imlay City area on February 28th). First 10 To Respond will fill the open spots!Come On! Be Part of the FUN! (And I will greatly appreciate your assistance!) The fine print:The Mystery Host event works only when at least 10 people collect $100 in orders from third parties, before tax and shipping. If you are interested in participating, please make sure you can commit to inviting others to order, following up, and collecting orders with payment. If anyone drops out for any reason or doesn’t meet the $100 qualifier and the show total does not reach $1000 the host rewards will be adjusted to the level reached according to the total dollar amount of the orders turned in. Orders from customers placed out of area/state will be subject to extra shipping and handling charges to be shipped directly to them. Thank you!

Plus, it could just be 3 or 4 orders! By the way, something I thought of...I would suggest trying to get your hosts to give you their wish list early...or at the same time you get the orders. Mainly if you are trying to get things in for JANUARY. This way you already have what they won't and don't have to wait too long on them to decide! We know THEY don't care about our timelines. ;)Keep us posted on your results! Even if you don't get the full 10 hosts, reading through this thread, several only got 6-8 host, but had huge success. And if you get it in as a January show- the hosts are big winners! Even if a show only got to $650, they still get larger benefits!

You may want to edit this to state the trip is to Disneyland (california), not Disney World (florida).
 
I was not expecting to get much from this mystery host party, BUT, I was wrong. I can barely get any friends/family to come to my home parties, so I doubted anyone would do this. But I did what I told my hosts to do, I emailed and face-booked, then I texted. I got 5 people to do this. Some just got a couple orders, some got a few hundred dollar orders. The guest total equaled #1300!!! The prizes were even bigger than expected. I got to my $1500 total and my free for all product. Will definitely do this again in July, especially since I will be in Africa the last 2 weeks.
 
That is awesome!! Great job!
 
Since so many people seemed to have great success with this in the past, and even recently, I'm resurrecting it once again. :DJUNE is our Free-For-All month, and it's DOUBLE REWARDS month. So that seems to me to be a perfect combination for doing this! More free product can be rewarded to your hosts who participate, and we can earn free products as well! Plus- with summer schedules, it might be easier to get some folks to do this, versus hosting a show? But use them as follow-ups later to get a real show on the calendar in the future? Anyway...just bringing back a good idea. :) It's old, but still applicable!
