Wish List
Firstly work out exactly what it is
that you wish to earn for free or at a discount. Make yourself a
'Wish List' of everything that takes your fancy, even if you think
that you could never afford it all if you were to buy it at the full
retail price. Remember, the Hostess Rewards are there to help you
earn it at a discounted price or even receive it complimentary from
the company.
Invites
It is really important to send out your
invites as early as you can so your friends don't make other
arrangements. When choosing your party date don't try and find a
date to suit everyone as this is often impossible. Pick a date with
your consultant that suits the both of you and then if any of your
guests can't make it they can still order or they may want to book
their own party, which of course will benefit you with extra
discounted items. You can, of course, book another party date, which
will earn you the extra Hostess Reward, and will also give your
friends who missed out the opportunity to come. Plus you will earn
the Hostess Rewards all over again! It can be tempting to send out a
general invitation via Facebook instead of posting the invites. By
all means create an 'Events' page for your party but it does help to
send out the invites in the mail. In a world of emails and text
messages it is nice to receive something in the mail, particularly
something other than a bill, and it does make people feel special to
receive individual invitations rather than just a group email.
Food
Don't go overboard when it comes to
preparing food. You will find that your guests won't eat much anyway
and people won't be tempted to book themselves if it looks like
hosting a party takes a lot of effort. Simple snacks are best and
either tea and coffee or a glass of bubbles is fine. Food can also
be a distraction from the products and can also make the party longer
than necessary, which doesn't help your bookings.
Numbers
Always over invite as it is inevitable
that some people won't be able to come. The general rule is invite
25 people to get a party of 10. If you are struggling with numbers
then ask your guests to bring a friend or family member along. Ask
your consultant to help you with this who can possibly offer some
sort of raffle prize for those guests who invite along someone new.
You might also prefer a more intimate gathering and your consultant
is likely to be happy to do a personal fitting for you and a couple
of friends.
Outside orders
Anyone who can't come can always place
an order so don't forget to show them the catalogue or direct them to
the company website. These sales will all count towards your total,
which increases your amount of Hostess Rewards.
Bookings
As well as getting bookings on the day
anyone who can't make it might like to host their own party so always
suggest this to them. If you are enthusiastic about the product and
genuinely want to share it with your friends there is no reason you
shouldn't share the product, plus you are giving your friend the
opportunity to get their own lingerie wardrobe sorted out for free!
The Business
A good consultant will always talk
about the Business Opportunity at your party. This might be
something you want to consider for yourself or you might have a
friend looking for a change, extra income or something to get them
out of the house and have some time away from the kids. If you have
a business lead for your consultant it is likely they will reward you
for it.
Relax
On the evening or day of your party don't forget to relax! If you have kept things simple and given your guests a quick reminder call, then you can be happy knowing that your party will run smoothly and you can look at enjoying yourself and earning some great bras and underwear for free!
