Make Your Home Party a Success!
Home parties can be a lot of fun and a great way to earn extra money.
Following a simple guideline can help you have a successful home party
that runs smoothly and everyone enjoys. The following guideline will
give you a basic idea of how to do this and can easily be adjusted to
fit your own tastes.
Before the Guests arrive…
Be sure to arrive at your hostess's home about an hour or so before the
start of your party to review any last minute details. Set up
refreshment table. Re-arrange furniture if needed. Set up your display.
Do a quick review of the guest list. Review any before-party sales.
Don't forget to lay out the catalogs, brochures and business cards!
Greeting the Guests…
Have the hostess warmly greet each guest as they arrive. Have her
introduce you and engage in some general chit-chat. Ask them about
themselves, what do they do, how do they know the hostess, do they have
any children? Remember to smile!
The Ice Breaker…
Games are a perfect ice breaker. Play a game or two to make the guests
feel welcome and comfortable. Make your games fun and with as much
interaction with the guests as possible. Another good ice breaker is to
thank your hostess for holding the party and giving her a gift. If you
offer gifts to guests who bring friends; now's the time do hand them
out.
The Presentation…
Start showing guests the items that you've brought for display and give
a brief description that you've prepared before-hand on each one. Guests
love hands-on viewing. After each description, hand the merchandise to
the guests to get a better look and pass around. At the end of your
presentation, discuss the opportunity for guests to become hostesses
themselves and briefly discuss the rewards. Be sure at some point to
open the floor to the guests for any questions, comments and/or
concerns. At this time the hostesses should be doing any last minute
preparations of the refreshments.
Finishing up Guest Orders…
Be prepared to help guests fill in their order forms and answer any
questions about sales tax and shipping costs. It might not be a bad idea
to bring along a calculator for quicker or more accurate order totals.
Also be prepared to accept checks and let it be known who you'd prefer
the checks to be written. Make sure you thank each guest who purchases
and give them a copy of the completed order form.
Ending the Show…
Make sure you once again thank the hostess for having the show. Be sure
to thank each guest for coming as they leave whether they made a
purchase or not. Don't forget to have all the needed information to
contact guests after the party concerning their orders or potentially
hosting a party themselves. And don't forget to have fun!
