What to Offer Host to Meet or Beat High Show?

[MrsCsfive]

My host from my highest show last year just rebooked for April. I am giving her the host packet on Friday. I want to offer her something to "meet or beat"
her show last year. Has anyone ever done this before? and if so what have you offered? I want to make it very appealing for her to meet or beat that show. The total was 1,019.00 last year. TIA

I offer something BIG and all my Hosts know they have the opportunity to earn it. The last thing I gave away was a set of Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls. Before that, I gave away all of the NIB cranberry stoneware I had accumulated. Right now, the winner gets the Bamboo Cutting Board.

Do you purchase this on the hosts order, buy it on kit enhancement, or have it already?

The stones I earned and I didn't need extras (I had classics or vanillas in the sames sizes). If I have a host who doesn't want to purchase the Monthly Host bonus (and I have the money) I will sometimes purchase those. I think I got the bowls/cutting board by purchasing them as samples (with the intention of using them as incentives) when they were offered -- I had already earned them so they were seconds.

Offer what you have or can get cheap!If someone gets over $1,000 they will get the 30% off from their host order and you can include your gift to them under that:
Executive saute pan
New SA stands
SA pieces
Or ask them what they would like to earn FREE for beating their old sales!!
I have a host who always tries to beat her old sales. Because of sickness she only did $800 last time and she usually has a $1,000 show!! This April I am expecting big and I asked her what she wants to earn FREE. She said she wanted to earn the new executive cookware FREE or 1/2 price. I told her I would give her all the nylon utensils to keep her pans safe and to cook with each day.
That is only $26.75 with my 40% off in April. If she can beat her old $1300 I will still make a minimum of $286 in commission! She is also a good friend of mine and has always given me a minimum of 3 bookings per show!
Plus she has introduced me to a whole group of women that love PC and love to order products all year round!!

I am running a contest where if a host beats my highest show total, I am going to give them an Executive Family Skillet! (the total they have to beat is $1375)

I don't have an extra one on hand, so I will add it to the host's order as a consultant's gift. It is a lot of money, yes, but it is a real motivator! AND I get panorama points for it, LOL.

If my show total gets higher, say around 2K, I might even offer an Executive set!

I just started this promotion, so I'll let you know how it goes....

The hostess with the mostess challenge...I just started this for my 2006 hosts. If you have a $1000 show and the host with the highest show wins this holiday pk. (my sign on bonus package-(Bamboo carving board, meatlifters, and carving set) $139 value! End in November just in time for the Holiday feasts! I'm hoping this will get my hosts to stive high! If no one reaches $1k I will carry it over to the next season and add more to the jackpot! Hope it works!

Thanks so much for all the great ideas!!! I am even using one of these incentives for a May host who wants to get the 5 & 7 piece Executive Cookware.

I would use the cookware as an incentive...this way you can order it on the hosts order and get points for pan-o-rama.
