Below are some different flyers with Hostess instructions on "How
to Host a Successful Book Party" each Flyer is different. Feel free to edit each of them or combine them to suit your specific
needs .
They can also be edited for
other types of parties, not just book parties. Make-over parties are usually a hit and Mani/Pedi Parties can also
be a lot of fun.
Here are some ideas for coaching your hostesses (or yourself) through
a party.
1- Have your hostess pick out the things she wants for free. Then calculate
it up to figure out how much she needs to be sold to get
what she wants for free. This gives the hostess a goal to work towards.
2- Make sure the hostess has a list to of all her friends and family. It
is easier to remember who to invite when you have a list.
3- Set a party date and a date through which you will continue
to take orders from people that want to add onto their orders or from people that want to order but weren't able to make the
party.
4- Remind your hostesses to ask everyone if they would be interested in
hosting their own party and she can still qualify for more rewards
for getting bookings, either in home or catalog parties.
5- Call the hostess at least twice after the party before you place your
order to check for additional orders and to answer any questions. You
may be able to encourage her at this point if things are not going
as well as planned.
6- If the catalog/home party is local, instead of having the hostess deliver
the products you can make all deliveries. This you gives
you a chance to meet each customer and can introduce yourself
to them, possibly picking up new recruits & customes.
7 - You don't have to have some one to book a party. You can just host one your
self.
Invite all your customers and have them bring a friend. You can play
games, sample new products, discuss makeup & skincare needs.
When your customers bring their friends & family members it opens doors to
potential new customers & recruits.
What ever you do just make sure that you always do a door prize and always offer
refreshments.
Also, keep in mind that only about 1/3 to 1/2 of the people you invite
will show up. But you never know who will bring friends with them.
