Unraveling the Mystery Host: A Step-by-Step Guide

[Candice]

I see all these threads and posts about Mystery Host and I've searched, but I still don't know WHAT or HOW to do this.

Can someone help me describe the process. Thanks

The concept is that you get several people to collect orders, usually 10, and the divide uaward the host benefits among the participants, usually in the form of a drawing. There are many variations on the actual execution, whether as a catalog show, or doing it as a part of an open house, and whether you divide up the benefits or give them to just one winner. But the basic idea is that no one knows who the "host" is until it's all said and done, and the "host" didn't actually do the hosting.
