Always with a special gift for those who show up first.
It only makes sense, right?
Reward those who are true members of your tribe. What comes along with that is you may find a few others who show up early because they see it as a chance to become a true tribe member.
However, there’s a more important reason you have special gifts for the first 10, 20, 30 people.
Have you realized or – I’m sure this is more likely – been guilty of waiting 30 minutes after the start time of an event to show up? Our reasoning is we don’t want it to feel awkward if we’re the only ones there or if no one else shows up for 30 minutes, especially if we don’t feel like true tribe members.
You have a successful event by awarding those who show up early with gifts because now everyone (the non-true tribe members) will know they don’t need to wait 30 minutes to show up; they know there will be at least 10, 20, 30 people who get there first for the prize.
