How to Earn FREE Wedding Invitations and Favors?

Brides let's face it. Times are hard and everyone is looking for ways to get the most for their money. So what are your wedding vendors doing to help you get what you want without loosing the high quality elegance you want for your wedding?

Well, I want to share with you an idea I am implementing to help Brides get exactly what they want on their big wedding day. One thing I am offering my customers is the ability to earn their products for Free. That's right, Free!

Most weddings have about 4-6 bridesmaids and groomsman’s. Typically they don't do much to help the bride in preparation for the wedding, but not with my plan. The wedding party plays a key role and helping the bride and groom get the items they need for their wedding. Here is how it works:

  1. Decide to host a catalog show or online show of our personalized candy bars.
  2. Ask each member of your wedding party if they will help you earn your wedding favors, invitation, etc for free.
  3. Have each of them pick a date they want the show to begin and end.
  4. You provide me the information.
  5. I will provide them with all things they need to have a successful show.
  6. For every sell made by your host(s), you will earn a % which can be applied toward your invitations, favors, etc.
  7. Once we close out all the shows, I will tell your total reward you have earned.
  8. You then apply toward your items.

So what do you think about this plan? Do you think brides would like this option?
