12 Keys to Success for New Home
Party Plan Consultants
Are you a new consultant with a home
party plan company? If so, there are a few things you should know
to help get you started with your new home party plan business.
There are many things that will affect
your success with a home party plan type of business, the faster
you get started the faster you will make money & be successful at
your new home business.
Below you will find some great tips &
ideas on how to move your business forward & to do so quickly!
#1. Once your consultant business
opportunity kit arrives to your home, go through it thoroughly. I
recommend that you open up your catalog and start reading it cover
to cover to familiarize yourself with all of the products. One way
to do this is to take 3x5" index cards and make up a set of
Product Flash Cards. On the front side of each card put the
product name & a picture of it (if available) and on the backside
list the product features, item number, price and any other
product facts.
Once you make up your Product Flash
Cards, use them! Just like in grade school, flash cards can help
you memorize and learn your products quickly.
#2. Read through your Consultant
Business Manual. As you are reading through it, have on hand 2
different colored highlighter markers. Take one and highlight
areas that are important and the other color highlight areas that
you need more information on. Then make a list of your questions
and contact your recruiter/sponsor or your Upline Manager to get
all of your questions answered. I recommend to all party plan
consultants to read their consultant business manuals at least
twice cover to cover. Its also nice to go back to it frequently to
use as a reference point.
#3. Make a detailed list of everyone
you know! Friends, Family, Co-workers, Neighbors, Teachers,
Community Leaders etc. This will be your BASE Customer List. I
recommend you contact everyone on your list via phone, in-person,
email or postal mail to offer them a catalog and your business
card. Print out flyers about your Hostess Plan and Current Hostess
Specials and print out flyers about any consumer specials that
your company is offering. Include those flyers with every catalog
you hand out. For extra incentive, you could include a discount
coupon that they can use on their first purchase from you.
#4. Hold your First Party with you
being the Host or do a Mystery Hostess Party, you will want to do
this within 3 weeks of joining your home party plan company.
Invite everyone you know! This will give you practice on doing a
home party show and expose your new business & products to your
family & friends from your Contact Customer List above. The more
you practice & the more parties you do, the more comfortable you
will be doing it plus the more money you will earn!
#5. Attend any meetings or events that
are sponsored by your party plan company. They offer training,
motivation, idea sharing & friendship. These days we all lead very
busy lives but if you don't attend them, you are really selling
yourself short on this valuable resource to get yourself started
with your new home business.
#6. Attend local commerce & business
events in your local community. You can build up business contacts
& business references by attending these events. You need to
network with as many people as possible and get your business out
there to be seen. Your business will not promote itself, its your
job to promote & advertise your new business.
#7. If you would like to Network
online with other business owners, I highly recommend Ryze. its
FREE to join and there are many FREE groups you can sign up to.
http://www.ryze.com/
#8. Set aside time a few times a week
to work on your business. Just like any job or business, you need
to set a schedule for "work related time." The more you work on
your business the more it will grow & flourish. I use a large wall
calendar in my home office and a daily planner and I schedule in
blocks of time to work on my business. Every week I sit down and
plan my week along with goals that I want to accomplish for that
week. Draft up a plan and stick to it.
#9. Start a Referral Program. Reward
your party hosts & customers who refer others to you. They are
more apt to give you referrals if there is something in it for
them. This could be a free small product or a discount on their
personal order. Think about your referral program right away and
get promoting it!
#10. Attitude! Be excited about your
new business & the products that you offer! The more you are
enthused about your new business & products, the more enthused
your party hosts & customers will be too!
#11. Share your Business Opportunity
with everyone you know & come into contact with. Don't assume that
they know and would not be interested!
#12. Increase your sales by letting
people know how your products can benefit them and fit into their
lives! The more you talk about your business & products the more
customers will want to purchase them! To do this, ask questions
about your customers likes & dislikes. You can make up a customer
survey to find out these types of answers and offer your customer
a one time discount for filling out your Preferred Customer
Survey. Use this survey to recommend products to your customer or
to alert them to future sales on the products that you customer
loves.
