wow that looks awsome
 
That looks so awsome... I am really impressed.... I never thought about doing something like that before... I think I need to really try that...
 
I tried one of these last season I think it was and got $175 for a qualfied show! Not bad for just sending out a mass email!
 
Would you recommend sending them out in a mass email or snail mail as well???
 
I just did email, but I suppose if you had people with out email you could send via mail? Could get pricey if you have alot on that list though??

I did not plan an everyone getting a gift when it comes to the Freebies. I would ramdomly pick numbers prior to the time and tag those with prizes. I haven't figured out the quiz completely. That's tonight's project (my husband is out of town all week). I pulled this from a previous thread call "Special Sale". It didn't include all the details, so I knew I would have to make some of it up myself. Feel free to use any part of these and have fun with it!

Because I wanted to do this 'show' quickly, I didn't snail mail anyone. I am making lots of calls this week to past customers though. And hopefully I will get a little response from the flyers that I am going to post about town this week.
 
This is a great idea! I think I will plan one for April, when I can purchase products at a discount! AWESOME IDEA!!
 
This sounds really good and I too would like to try it. I want to continue to boost my sales each month anyway that I can. I would lalso like to know about your quiz questions. Did you put a limit on the half price item? I would be afraid that someone would call at nine and want the 7 piece executive cookware. Keep me posted on this Tammy and thank you for sharing. Millie
 
The 1/2 price items are a fear of mine too. Any ideas on that?? Our snail mail is pretty fast here, so I am sending them out tomorrow for "Terrific Tuesday". Maybe I can get enough orders to close out before the 15th to count for the HWC freebies.
 
For the half price items, you could put "Up to $50 off" ...or something along those lines.
 
On my flyer, I did put that the maximum product value is 50.00 for the half price item. Millie
 
Thanks for sharing! I run these about 2 times a year and have a good turnout! Last year I had a $300 show I believe!
 
Is there a quiz available tonight for the sale that is taking place tomorrow. Millie
 
I'm going to give this a whirl on Monday...I want my HWC items and I have $75 in orders that I'm sitting on. I'm hoping that with a few phone orders and a little incentive, I'll get it up to $450 so I can submit 3 shows!
 
OK I am pretty new to this website... I am also new to this famous friday phone sales... Can someone please enlighten me on this?? I would really appreciate this........
 
HI! I am new to Chef Success. I don't have Microsoft Word and would love to view this document. I noticed most files are in Microsoft Word. Do you know how I could open them up without Microsoft word?

Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Thanks, Jeni

What word processing program do you own?
 
How did it turn out?
 
Inquiring minds want to know!
 
Mine went pretty well. With a little finagling, I managed to eke out $450 to get my apron! I got a good response from a lot of people that didn't order, too, so I intend on doing this again in the future...
