Host a Trunk Show

 
Interested in hosting a trunk show?

Shawn Warren donates a percentage of sales from your event to your favorite charity. 

 

What we do:

  • Design the invitation for the event.
  • Send the invitation to you for comments and approval.
  • Send the invitation to your guest list. If you prefer, you can forward our invite directly your guests.
  • Manage all RSVP's and advise you of attendance about a week before the event.
  • Bring everything that is needed to the show with us including table clothes and mirrors.
  • Send you a case of wine for the event.
  • Set up everything and help with clean up after.
  • Give you an accounting of the event the following day along with the amount raised for your charity of choice.

What we need:

  • The name of your favorite charity. A check for a percentage of sales will be sent to you within two weeks of the show date to donate.
  • Your guest list
  • A good size long or round table with overhead or natural lighting

Helpful hints: 

  • Joint hosting is the most effective way of ensuring a great turnout. Access to multiple guest lists is important since people are busy and not everyone you invite is likely to attend.
  • Joint hosting also works well to encourage friends to bring other friends. Women have more fun trying on jewelry together.
  • Full time mothers prefer show times after their morning workout and before school pick-up time - usually 11am to 4pm.
  • Working women & couples prefer the cocktail hour -- usually 5pm to 8pm.
  • Wednesdays & Thursdays tend to be the best show days and evenings. Friday nights can also be great, especially if you hope to attract men.
  • Guests do not eat a lot at these events so there is no need to have an excessive amount of food.
