Quit Asking and Start Offering
I know we are all familiar with this scenario. We have a show booked because we asked someone to do us a favor. She said yes because she is our aunt or best friend but she really didn't know why she was having this show or what the benefit to her was. We get there and 2 people have shown up and it's not even enough to qualify as a show! This can be a very frustrating situation. Both you and your hostess have spent precious hours for this show and neither one of you really benefited from the night.
So, how do we prevent this from happening? Simply put, quit asking and start offering! So many times we get caught up in our needs that we forget to think about the hostess. Instead of asking them to do us a favor, offer them the opportunity to earn free and discounted products from this fabulous company you just joined!
See which one of these sounds more appealing to you (taken from Build it Big):
Example 1: "Hi Susie, I've just joined Thirty-One and I'm really excited but I need people to book parties to help me get started. Would you have a party in the next three weeks for me?"
Example 2: "Hi Susie, I've just joined Thirty-One and I'm really excited. The products are great and I get to hold parties and give away free and discounted products. I would love to offer you the opportunity to earn some of these products by having a few of your friends and me over for a fun-filled evening. The dates I have available are Tuesday the third or Sunday the first. Which one is better for you?
If you were your hostess, which one would you say yes too? As consultants, we need to remember that we are offering people a service and a great opportunity.
You can use this same tactic to call people now about the new fall catalog that is releasing on August 1!

Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic however
I'd figured I'd ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog
article or vice-versa? My blog discusses a lot of the same subjects as yours
and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you're interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you! Wonderful blog by the way!

An intriguing discussion is worth comment. I believe that you should publish more about this topic, it may
not be a taboo subject but usually people do not speak about these subjects.
To the next! All the best!!

When I initially left a comment I seem to have clicked the
-Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each
time a comment is added I recieve four emails with the
exact same comment. There has to be a way you can
remove me from that service? Kudos!

You actually make it seem really easy together with
your presentation but I in finding this matter to be actually something which I think I might never understand.
It sort of feels too complicated and extremely large for me.
I am taking a look forward for your subsequent post, I will attempt to get the hang of it!
