What is a Mystery Host?!?

Tastefully Simple has some wonderful host rewards for those who choose to host a taste-testing or catalog party.  Besides the usual FREE PRODUCT you can earn on the sales of your party, they have now also started an extra monthly host reward to go along with it!


My Open House is going to have a "Mystery Host".  You may wonder what that means...so I am going to tell you!  Every guest who chooses to order product(s) through my Open House will get their name put into a drawing for every $15.00 that they spend in retail product.  In other words, if you spend $30.00, your name will be put into the drawing two times, $45.00 will put your name in three times, etc...


Once the Open House is over, I will have my husband, Jeremy, draw the name of the winner!  If your name is chosen, I will contact you to see if you would like to accept the role as the "Mystery Host".  By choosing to be the "Mystery Host", you will be able to select the FREE PRODUCT that is earned from the Open House.  **The only cost to you would be the Shipping Charge for the FREE PRODUCT.**


Since I know I have many friends, family members, and clients that are not in the Brainerd Lakes Area to attend my Open House personally, I am opening up this opportunity to anyone who chooses to order products, even if you place an order with me before the event, or place an order on-line.


To place an order on-line, and ensure that you are included in the "Mystery Host" drawing, follow these directions:

Please follow this link to my Tastefully Simple site:  www.tastefullysimple.com/web/ndoyle  

From here you can select “Shop our Products”, Browse Recipes, etc.  It is important that you select Mystery Host as the host, so that your name will be put into the drawing.  You can do this several ways:

1. From the “Shop our Products” page – Searching for a Host or Party?, or
2. From the Shopping Cart – on the lower, right hand side of the page – Find Host/Event?

 

Use the following criteria for your Hostess/Event search:

1. First Name:  Mystery
2. Last Name:  Host
3. State:  Minnesota
4. Date:  09/17/2011

 

Once your shopping cart is full of all of the great Tastefully Simple products, and you have selected Mystery Host as your host, proceed to checkout.  It is all handled directly through the site and products are shipped directly to you without the hassle of waiting for the Open House to “close”.  Orders are usually received in 3 – 5 business days!

I look forward to finding out who will receive the title of "Mystery Host" for my Open House!  Since I already have taken orders for this event, this could be a great opportunity for some lucky winner to receive a lot of FREE yummy Tastefully Simple product!  

And did you know...that you can order from the New Fall/Winter Catalog starting on September 1st?  Did you know...that you can still order from the Spring/Summer Catalog until September 19th?  Did you know...that Tastefully Simple has so much cool stuff going on right now that I will save the rest for another post?

As the Open House date approaches--September 17th between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.--I thought I would provide some information on different topics pertaining to Tastefully Simple.  The first topic seems pretty obvious to me...Facts About Tastefully Simple.
