7 Tips to Get More Bookings For Your Next Direct Sales Party

Jumpstart your new home business….

If you’ve just recently signed up with a direct sales company or looking for a few more ideas to increase your number of bookings try a these seven tips… 

1.  Exchange shows with other direct sellers in your area.  Chances are you know other people who have direct sales businesses.  If your goal is to book another party, ask them to do it and then tell them that you would book a party through them in return.

2.  Leave a catalog or two in the teacher’s lounge where your child goes to school (check with the school first to make sure that it’s okay).  Teachers are always on the lookout for bargains, fundraisers and various items that will benefit their children. If you sell educational toys or items, you may be able to obtain more than one booking. 

3.  Leave brochures or catalogs in the waiting room at your doctor’s or dentist’s office on your next visit.  Don’t forget to also leave a copy with the receptionist or ask if you can leave one in their lounge room.

4.  Check with your local Chamber of Commerce to see if there are welcome packages for new people moving into the area.   Ask them if you could leave a stack of brochures or business cards to be placed in welcome packages for these new citizens.

5.  Send catalogs or opportunity literature to people or businesses chosen randomly from the telephone book.  Make sure to keep a record of everyone that you have sent this information.  If you choose to send more in the future, you will want to send the information to different people that have not yet received your information. (Just a word of caution…shipping can be costly, so make sure that you have an updated telephone book)

6.  At your home parites, begin by mentioning to the guests that the hostess will be receiving free gifts for having the party.  Let them know what the hostess is working toward and exactly what she needs to receive that item.  Don’t be afraid to boldly ask them to book a party to help the hostess reach that goal.

7.  Make the suggestion that by booking a second show in the future, the hostess will be guaranteed an opportunity to see and try new products as they are released.  This is particularly effective if your hostess last held a show in the spring. Hosting a party closer to the holidays would help her save money on her own holiday shopping.

These are only a few ideas to get started.  Now, take a few minutes to think of more ideas you could do to get bookings.  If all else fails, ask family if they will host a party for you.
