Sponsoring When You're Not at a Party

Wear For Every Home Logo Apparel and carry a For Every Home Tote Bag with a catalog(s) sticking out.

Stay in touch with your customers by giving them a thank you phone call for attending Susie's party. I don't know about you, but I have NEVER received this type of call, and I've been a guest of lots of home parties. This is a great opportunity for you to share any and all services that you offer! Plus, it's just darn good customer service!!

Utilize For Every Home's marketing materials. Enclose a Sponsoring Tri-Fold in your customers' bag when you deliver their order to them.

Use the products in your own home. Create attractive displays of the products here and there. When people express an interest, it opens up a great opportunity for the discussion of For Every Home.

Give For Every Home products as gifts.

Remember to share what's in it for THEM by joining your team. The reasons why you joined are great for YOU, but not necessarily for her. Remember to be thoughtful and respectful of HER feelings. Ask lots of questions about her family, lifestyle, etc. and be sure to listen!! This will help you discuss how our opportunity will benefit HER! By focusing on her needs and goals, she is more likely to join your team!

Be sure to follow-up!!! If someone requests more information or expresses an interest, follow-up with them. This isn't being pushy at all. Some people may mention our opportunity in a round-about way such as, "How many parties do you do in a month?" or "How much money can you make doing this?" Offer to meet with them and answer their questions over a cup of coffee.

Smile and love what you do! "Enthusiasm is contagious" my Bittersweet Sales Director always said.
