What are direct sales party plans? And what do you need to know about them? If you are currently involved in a direct sales company or MLM Business, you should utilize direct sales party plans to grow your business. Why should you do this? Listed below, you will find my top five reasons to use the party plan to grow your MLM or direct sales business.

1) Educate Your Customers: My favorite reason to use direct sales party plans is to educate my customers. When you have party plans, you have your customers' undivided attention for one to three hours. You can let the prospects touch the products and demo the products. You can also discuss the features and benefits of the products. In my experience, I've found that the best way to sell something is to educate your customer. This is frequently referred to as reverse selling.

2) Find New Customers: Customers are the lifeblood of any business. When you conduct party plans, you typically find 5-10 new customers at each event. If you provide great customer service, many of these customers will become re-peat customers. This gives you immediate and future profits. And several of your happy customers will normally agree to host a party plan at their house.

3) Work Smart: Rather than trying to sell your products one-on-one, it's much wiser to sell your products in a group setting. Instead of selling one product at a time, you can sell the same product to 5-10 people. This lets you work smart and product more profit in your business, in the same amount of time.

4) Generate More Sales: When you use the party plan, you generate more sales volume in your business. This gives you immediate profits and a larger bonus check. And if you can teach your downline distributors how to conduct their own party plans, you will make even more money.

5) Have Fun: Party Plans are fun. They are a great way to meet new people, generate more sales, socialize, make money and have fun. If you've never done a party plan (or attended one) you don't know what you are missing.

During my time in Amway, I sometimes used the party plan to demo different Amway products to my downline distributors. I found this to be a very beneficial way to educate my downline about the different features and benefits of the products. Typically, this led to increased product sales and larger bonus checks.

You can use the party plan for retail customers or with your current downline distributors. Either way, you will educate your customer about what the products have to offer.

If you are just getting started and don't know what to do, I recommend you call your upline distributor or sponsor and have them help you. Keep calling different people until you find someone who knows what they are doing, and is willing to help you. And if that doesn't work, search the internet to find out how to conduct a party plan on your own.
