Helping Your Hostess - Problem Prevention

Helping Your Hostess - Problem Prevention

Here are some things to remember that will help ward off potential problems or distractions at the show:

No children at the show - babies are fine, but unless you can arrange for someone to watch the children in another room (still not the best option), it is best to not have Mom's attention divided, or the Consultant's (or anyone else's!), either.

Let this be a Mom's night out for fun with the ladies!

Avoiding Postponements or Cancellations

The most effective method for avoiding postponements or cancellations is to properly coach the hostess in advance. Let her know what you will be doing and what to expect, including her Hostess Incentives.

Share your enthusiasm and confidence with her, and if she is nervous, remind her that you will be doing the demonstration and answering questions.

If she has to postpone or cancel, be gracious! Obviously, if it isn't because of a tragedy that she is postponing or cancelling, ask her to commit to another date and time during the following week that will work for her. Ask her specifically if the first part of the week or the latter part will work. If you are too general, it may not happen.

Helping Your Hostess - How to Book

Helping Your Hostess

How to Book

This may be her first time as hostess, and not sure what all it involves, or what to do or say.

She is your teammate, so you want to give her all the help and support she needs!

Here is an example on what she might want to say to invite guests to their L'Bri show:

"Hi Sue, this is (hostess name). I'm going to have a L'Bri Pure n' Natural Skin Care Show here at the house in a couple weeks that I'm really excited about. Have you heard of L'Bri yet? We will learn all about natural skin care products and how to keep our skin young and healthy looking the natural way.

It will give us a chance to sit back, relax and enjoy some pampering. I would love for you to come! (Be enthusiastic!) It's at 7:00 Friday evening, May 2nd. Come as you are, bring a friend if you'd like, and enjoy a night out! Can I count on you to be there?"

If she says, "Sure, I'd love to!", then say, "Great! I will put you down. I look forward to seeing you!"

If she says "No, I can't make it" because she has another commitment or isn't interested, have your hostess say, "I can have my L'Bri Consultant send you some FREE samples to try. I know you will love these products once you experience them. How does that sound?"
