Earn FREE books by hosting an Usborne Books Online e-Show!
An e-Show is an online Usborne Book party. You can earn FREE BOOKS as the "hostess" of your e-Show, and it's all done electronically -no house to clean, no snacks to prepare! Just follow these easy steps:
Set up your e-Show.
Just fill out the online form and submit!
You can even schedule an online chat with your friends if you'd like, to talk about the books (this is optional - if you don't want a chat, just leave those fields blank.)
When you
submit the e-Show set up form, you will be given a special URL address link, through which your friends can access the e-Show.
Sending Your Invitations
Once your e-Show is set up, you can email your e-Show invitations. Invite everyone you know - the beauty of an e-Show is that even out-of-state friends and family can "attend!"You can do your invitations one of two ways: email an invitation with the special link to each person, OR type in your guests' email addresses when you set up the e-Show, and the website will send e-Vites for you.
At the bottom of this page, I've included a sample email invitation that I like to use. Modify and personalize as you wish!
Your guests will have 10 days to order from the e-Show - Usborne will ship the orders directly to your guests by the next business day.
Reminder Emails
About three days before the close of your e-Show, I suggest that you send out reminder emails to your friends so that they will remember to visit the e-Show. In these busy times, people often plan on visting but then forget! That second email will remind them to visit and shop the e-Show through your special link.
After the e-Show: FREE Usborne Books!
When the e-Show closes, you will be sent an email with a total of all the orders that people placed through the e-Show. Your merchandise allowance for free books is calculated from that total (scroll down to see the chart below).That closing email will also provide you with a special link to a webpage, where you can "claim" your free Usborne Books. You will have three days to select the books; when you go to that webpage, it will ask you to provide the email address and password that you provided when you first set up your e-Show. You will then be directed to the selection process to spend your free book allowance.
If you have any questions about an Usborne Books online e-Show, I would be happy to assist you. Please email me at cherylbooks@aol.com.
