Anyone doing their own Power Cooking Show?

[pamperedbecky]

Has anyone done their own workshop-type show with a Power Cooking theme? I've had good luck when I host my own shows when I offer it as an educational workshop (stoneware, cutlery, cookware) so at the last minute I've decided to try to squeeze one in before double points ends. Although I let people know they don't have to purchase anything (come just to learn and eat!), most of the time I get good sales. I'm going to mostly invite through my customer connection website and their Power Cooking invite/email. I'm going to hand out invites throughout the neighborhood too. But I'm planning it for next Tuesday night!! I hope that's enough time to make it worthwhile. What do you guys think? If you've done the Power Cooking theme as your own show, do you have any tips? I'm planning on handing out recipes that night and probably do lots of raffles.

I want to make it a Mystery Host party, but after I tell them there's no need to purchase anything, I don't want to turn around and make it seem that I'm fishing for sales. Does that make sense??:confused:

I'm doing a Mega Show next Tuesday.... haven't decided what recipes I'm doing though. Maybe you could ask each person who is coming to bring 3-5 friends with them and turn each in as a hosted show. ???

I think you have plenty of time to offer it. What do you have to lose? GO FOR IT!!!!

Well, I'm doing it and have started handing out invites for my power cooking workshop on Tuesday! Unfortunately with the horrendous weather today, I only got them in about 1/3rd of the mailboxes in my 90 or so home subdivision. I'm also going to send out the evite tonight. I've had one say yes they're coming so far. I just hope it doesn't snow that day!!!!
