Hosting an Usborne Book Show Online

FIRST - set up an eShow.  An eShow is your online Usborne Book Party! When you set up an eShow online, you are given a special URL address to your very own eShow Online Catalog that your friends can shop from.  You will have 10 days for your guests to order at your online Usborne Book Party eShow before it closes.  All eShow orders are shipped directly to customers on the next business day - with normal web site shipping charges.

WOW! Just think...

An Usborne Books eShow is a great way to earn free Usborne books - like with a conventional Usborne book party - but because it is online it also means... no cleaning - no cooking - no sorting - no hassle! :)


SECOND
- send out your invitations to your online Usborne Book Party!  You can either do this via email or type in your friend's email addresses when setting up your online Usborne Book Party and the web site will do it for you. You can even schedule an online chat with your friends to really make it like an online Usborne Book Party!! 
 

THIRD - send out reminders to your friends so they will remember to visit your special URL for your online Usborne Book eShow to purchase Usborne books so that you can qualify for the free books. The orders are totaled up for all the people that placed an order at your eShow and your allowance for free Usborne books is calculated from that total. The allowance is based on the chart below.
 

FOURTH - claim your books! After your online Usborne Book eShow is closed, you will receive an email providing you with the link to a page to claim your free Usborne books and you will have three days to select the books. You will be asked for your email address and the password that you provided when you initially set up your online Usborne Book eShow. Then you will be directed into the shopping process to spend your allowance. 


Sample eShow Invitation
The following is a sample invitation the web site will generate and email to the list of friends you provide. 
Or, email it to yourself so you can edit it and sent from your email account. __________________________________________
