Had a lady at a show last night who was at one of my previous shows. She doesn't cook (she buys stuff for her hubby) so has no real desire to host a show to get free products HOWEVER when I handed out my theme show binder last night she got all excited about the prospect of having a "Murder Mystery" with her curling club, so is going to book a show with me in March!

Basically the host benefits didn't push the right buttons for her, but my theme show binder, with great "evenings in with your pals" did!

If you don't have one I'd highly recommend you GET ONE! :)
 
I have one too!I just recently put together a show binder with all colorful flyers and cannot wait to see if I get people excited about doing a theme show!? Hope it works like yours did!
 
The Murder Myster sounds fun. What do you do for that type of show?

there was one posted here a while ago (search for murder mystery files) but it only had four characters, and they really all had motive to kill so it could be whoever you chose it to be.

I'm currently writing one with about 9 characters (that way there is a minimum to have) and there are actually clues that you have to listen for to figure out who dunnit.

I'll probably have it done in the next week. Would love to email it to some of you to get your thoughts actually. Who's willing to proof read it?

Oh, and it incorporates the menu item into the plot, along with the guests/suspects actually explaining things like:
Host benefits
Ways to pay
Products
Fundraising
The Opportunity
and each guest says how they now the host, so it gives people ideas of who to invite to their OWN party.

I'm very excited!!!
 
That is too cool. I would love to see it too. Maybe you can post it here when you get done.
 
Count me in. I have some friends that can be a little morbid, so they'd love this idea.

Theme Show BinderI am in the process of redoing all of my Pampered Chef files, not by choice ... I had done an update for my virus protection, when I restarted my computer, it asked for my "Recover CD" ... long story short, I have a brand new computer.:( :( :( My last backup was not a successful one, so I am having to re-create almost everything I had!

If you would mind sharing your theme show ideas, I would appreciate you emailing me privately! Can I include my email or will you get it from the consultant list?

Thanks so much for any help you can give me:)
