Hello all,
HUGE thank you to the people that have recently signed up with Mystery Home Shopping Experience, advertising is being worked out as we speak.
I also wanted to advise that Mystery Home Shopping now has a couple of extra features to help get your name out their to the wider audience.
Firstly if you are already on our register. You are now entitled to be in our "Featured Business" section of our site www.mysteryhomeshopping.com.au Your feature will run for 2 weeks. You can include pics and an article on your business. This is to help showcase your business when people are visiting our site. Our traffic has increased and in turn as people look around the site, they will see a story all about you!!
Please note this is a FREE service to anyone already on the register and anyone that signs up from here on. To anyone not on the register you can request a spot for a small fee but preference will be given to our members.
We do currently have a small waiting list. So if you are interested in being part of this please email me at mysteryhomeshopping@mail.com asap to secure your spot.
At present our Featured Business is Snapshot Occassions. So to get an idea of the type of ad please check that out.
Secondly we now have a Business Banner page. We make the banners and provide a direct link to your website or if you dont have a website we can provide other contact details for you. We make the banner and send it to you for your approval before going live with it and of course its yours to keep and do with what you like.
For registered members the charge for a banner ad on our site is $20 for a month or $50 for a year.
For non members the charge is $35 for a month or $75 for a year.
To view our current listings log on to our site and look under Business Banners

Does mhse take out a percentage of what you make at your parties?
Snazza replied:
Hi Lauren
No MHSE most definately does not take out any percentage of what you make from your parties.
We are a service that is meant to be an extra helping hand in reaching that larger audience for you. You only pay for your initial booking fee. After that there are no other payments involved and all other advertising and costs are worn by us.
The only mention of MHSE at your party is we request when you arrive at a customers house that you say something like "Hi there Im Lauren and I am your Mystery Home Shopping Experience and i represent (your company name) and from there on you run your party as you would normally. Any bookings received from that party are yours and you dont need to notify us of sales or bookings acheived through that booking.
Kind regards
Snazza

Thought so. I was telling 2 pp ladies about it yesterday and they were like they have to take a percentage and i was like no pretty sure they dont its just to help you out. But oh well I know one of the ladies was very interested about it and wants to know how it works for me.

Hi Lauren
I can totally understand people thinking that. As I guess there are alot of people out there to make money in whatever way they can. Not trying to sound a goodie two shoes here hehe but I honestly only ever started this service to try and help people. I have been out there looking for bookings myself and I know first hand how hard it can be. So this service was never a money making scheme it was done with the pure intention of opening people up to that wider audience
Some people have had bookings and some people havent. Its the nature of the beast. But I stay up working till the wee hours of the morning on perfecting this. Its something I had thought about for such a long time. I just really want to make a difference. Thats all.
One thing though is that those that do hold these parties love the experience. I was tickled pink today to see on my MHSE Facebook page that a lady who's testimonial is on our site had gone to the trouble of becoming a fan of our page and posting her comments about her party on there. Its moments like that that I dont need money cos money cant buy that feeling of achievement.
Heres the link to her comments and our page if you wanted to join...

Snazza - I think you a really onto something with MHSE. It may take some time to catch on but offering this concept is a unique and fun idea, in fact my husband told me yesterday that he thought it was a great idea - this coming from a man who does not shop!
I hope the word continues to get out. Do you have a E copy of a flyer or email promo that members such as I can perhaps email out to my contacts list - I have a couple of girlfriends who are mad on Party Plan purley for the fun of catching up with friends and shopping at home. I'd be happy to spread the news as utimately it will benefit us all!
