Home Party Sales
Home party sales are the fastest and easiest way to grow your direct sales business. In fact, I can’t think of a better way for a new or experienced direct sales consultant to start making sales quickly. What I like most about home party sales is that it is easy and fun to do. And you can get more done in less time, because you can share your products or services with multiple prospects at the same time.What Type of Products Sell Well Tons of different products are sold at party plans. Some of the most common products include vacuums, food, cookware, weight loss products, clothing, books, purses, and more. You name it and you will probably find it at an in-home party. I’ve also heard of people selling lingerie, tools, spices, gels, hair products and anything else you can think of. I think you can succeed selling any product, as long as you are passionate about what you sell. Getting Started If you are just getting started, I recommend you get some coaching from your sponsor. I’d recommend that you tag along with your sponsor to one of their presentations, so you can see how things are done. If you haven’t joined a direct sales company yet, try to find one with products you are passionate about. Additionally, make sure you have a game-plan, before you get to the house. Know which products you want to focus on and have some inventory. The easiest way to get started is to contact your friends and family and book parties with some of them. If you call enough people, you will find someone willing to host an in-home party. Read through your company catalog or brochure to find out if they have any helpful tools to assist you with your party. Chances are, they have a PowerPoint Presentation or a flip chart for you to use. They might also have some sample products you can order to use for your demonstration. Tips for Success What are the best tips I can give you? The first thing you need to do is schedule parties. Once you do that, you need to coach the host or hostess on how to properly invite people and set up her home. At the event, you need to show up and start on time. You should also have an agenda and stick to it. During the event, encourage two-way conversation. Ask questions and find ways to get your prospects involved with your demonstration. Another helpful tip is to make sure you have plenty of inventory, so when prospects place their orders, they don’t have to wait a week or two to get their products. My final advice is to book lots of parties. The easiest way to do this is to book parties with the most excited guests at each party. Give them incentives to host a party, such as free products or a cash bonus. Final Thoughts In conclusion, home party sales are a simple and effective way to grow your direct sales business. If you are just getting started, you should talk with an experienced upline, or your sponsor, to develop a game-plan for you to follow. Once you know what to do, you should get busy scheduling home parties. You will be pleasantly surprised with your results.
