Hello.
What are you selling?
There are a number of good booking party games. My favorite is the envelope game.
You prepare 1 env. for every guest. I some envs., I put simple things like no Shipping, no tax, $2.00 off, $5.00, etc. I tell my guest that they have the opportunity to buy an envelope for only $1. Inside, they are guaranteed to double that in savings. I tell them that there are 20% of the envelopes with larger gifts ($10 off, or $20 off, or a small prize), but there are also 20% of the envelopes with "You will book a party".
I tell my guests to seriously consider buying an envelope, because it they choose a booking env., but should respect the hostess and book a party off of her.
It works quite well. Those who get an env. that says "you book", I schedule them in that night. That way, you are not waiting for them to schedule. As well, not only are the ones who win "you book" interested in booking a party right, obviously they've considered it if they were ready to buy an env., so you can mention to those as well the great benefits of hosting when they place their order.
I hope that this game helps you.
