Thank YouTHANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! Thanks so much for posting all those flyers! I greatly appreciate. I'm trying to get more bookings and I really think that these will help!
 
The fliers are not being sent to each person individually, but posted here on the board. All you have to do is scroll through each page and find them.
 
Thanks Ginger!Thanks you so much for the ideas ladies. I am really excited and would like to try a theme show one day. Ginger thanks for the attachments, they are so helpful. Also I e-mailed you today and I hope I sent it to the right address. It was an e-mail address for you I saw on one of your attachments. Let me know if you didn't get an e-mail from me and let me know the right e-mail so I can try again. Thanks so much! :)

hi i would like a copy of these if you care, just getting started , and need some help.

thanks,

Hello, I would also like a copy. Thank you!
 
Everyone is asking for copies of the theme show fliers to be sent directly to them. I am not sure who you are asking. I have posted a bunch on this thread. All you have to do is go back through the pages and open them. If you are having problems, try right clicking and choose save instead of open. Save it to a folder and then try opening it there.
 
Please email me a copy also! My email address is [email protected] . thank you in advance!

Theme Show FileHi Kim,

I'd be thrilled if you'd share that file with me. I just put together a Theme Show Binder quickly last night, I'm not overly pleased with it, but it's a start. Anything that anyone is willing to share would be great!

As time goes on and I get more in my collection I'll pass on the favour.

Thanks,
Steph

I have a file that my director sent to me awhile ago. It has several invitations on it plus some notes to help with some of the different theme shows. I don't mind sending it to anyone interested. I will warn you that it takes my computer about 30 minutes to upload/download this file. It does have several repeats on it, but there are a lot of flyers. I use the black recruiting binder off of supplies and I have recruiting information, then the specials and special flyers, then the celebrations info, hosting information, and then a copy of all the invitations of each theme show. I use this at shows and at booths. I tell everyone this is not exclusive, but what I have or others have thought of. I let them know if they want any specific show that I don't have in there, we can a PC show using any theme. Anyone interested please contact me and I will e-mail the file to you. I would try to attach it, but I am still figuring this forum out, plus it is a big file.

Theme Show FilePreviously I had posted that I had a file to share. I have been having trouble for months now when sending the file. I was hoping that some of you who did get the theme show file with me would share it with others. I am sorry for the inconvenience to everyone, but my computer has a mind of its own. I think the file is too big for it to handle. Again my apologies. :(
 
Theme Show.....I am doing 2 theme shows in June...the first on June 1, is a Margarita Party. I type out labels, and do the invitations for all of my hosts' guests. I will put something like, "Join Mary Smith at her home at 222 E. Nowhere St., Nowhere, NJ 08999 at 6:57 pm on June 1, 2005 for a Margarita Party! Wear your best Hawaiian shirt, and hat, and be sure to RSVP to Mary at 555-5555 by May 27. Bring a friend and a smile!!"

Then, our menu is going to be Margaritas using the Quick Stir Pitcher, and 2 recipes from the Seasons Best Spring/Summer 2005...The Mexican Dip, The Guacamole Dip and Salsa (made from PC dips), and the Lime Chips....they are delicious...and SO EASY to make!!!

Also, because it is the beginning of summer, I am offering the kids a challenge....any person who fills out a flyer with his/her child's name & info. on it, and buys a quick stir pitcher is in for a challenge. In the Philadelphia area, we had a little girl named Alex Scott die from pediatric cancer at the age of 8....she found out she had it at the age of 1. Anyhow, she started something called, "Alex's Lemonade Stand." So far, her stands have raised over 1.5 million dollars!!!!

So, the child who turns in the most money to me by the end of the summer, wins a gift card to either Toys R Us, or Build A Bear, and every mom that lets her child do this.....
The mom with the "winning" child gets a free....I buy all of the ingredients for the Kitchen Show on me....
Every other mom who participates, gets a show, and I will bring a dessert.

Happy Memorial Day weekend everybody!!! Michele

how to use the theme invitesOn the "The Show's the Thing" Cd that we can purchase through the supply order one of the ladies talked about the theme show binder that she uses. She says that she makes one color copy for the hostess and one flyer and then askes the hostess to make as many copies as she needs. That way you aren't spending a ton of money making copies for everyone. Also you can print it so that all the info is typed in and from that one copy she can make 15 or 50 cpoies of it. Otherwise I can see it as being a waste because you can never tell how many people someone is going to invite.

Just a thought for you on how to do it. Remember everyone runs their business differently and this may work for some but not others.

Thanks so much for sharing all those files.
 
I love the themed ideas :) I think they are so much more fun! If any of you were able to receive the file from Kim, I would love a copy. Any other flyers or invites would be welcome too :) I just signed up, and am having my first show this month. I am new to the area, so want to start off the best I can.
Thanks you all for all the help and ideas :D

Also, if you happen to have what Kim Runkle was passing on, that would be great! I talk with her and she said her computer just wasn't working right to send it out anymore for somereason. If you have it could you please send it to me. Thanks.

Any ideas would be great and very appreciated.

Dr. Phil ShowHi Ginger,
You have wonderful ideas!!! Can you direct me to where I need to go to find the actual directions on how to conduct a Dr. Phil Stressed out show? I have looked around in themes and old files but can't seem to locate it...new to the list and not quite sure of my way around yet. Thanks!

It's a show where you ask your guests to bring their "problem" tool. You do a regular demo, but focus on helping each guest replace their "problem" tool. You offer 20% a replacement for their problem tool so they are not so STRESSED about having it in the kitchen.
