Make the phone your friend!Hi,

Flyers are great, but the BEST way to get business is to get on the phone to any and all contacts you can! This will help you get more shows on your calendar, and I hope to see you at Conference!

Emily,
Do you need to do 4 shows a month so you can afford Conference?? You should join the Conference Club at the PC website. They will hold money from your commission toward conference. It is a great way to save.

As Maria said, you need to get on the phone. Please will be flattered that you called, not offended. Think of yourself...how often do you see things in magazines or on fliers and not call. Probably not often. If you were to get a call from the magazine or person on the flier, you would probably order.

CALL CALL CALL! Tell them you were thinking about them and the new spring products.

Post your goal of going to conference where you will see it every day. Tell your friends and family as well as guests at shows.

See you at conference!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What strategies can I use to increase my show bookings for the National Conference?

To increase your show bookings, focus on building relationships with your customers and potential hosts. Utilize social media to promote your shows, offer incentives for bookings, and create engaging content that highlights the benefits of hosting a show. Additionally, consider reaching out to past hosts and customers for referrals and to gauge their interest in hosting again.

How can I leverage social media to boost my show bookings?

Social media is a powerful tool for promoting your shows. Share enticing posts about your upcoming events, including photos of products and testimonials from past hosts. Use stories and live videos to engage your audience in real-time. Consider running contests or giveaways that encourage sharing and tagging friends to increase visibility and attract new hosts.

What types of incentives can I offer to encourage bookings?

Offering incentives can be a great way to encourage bookings. Consider providing discounts on products, free gifts for hosts, or special promotions for guests who book a show. You might also offer exclusive recipes or cooking tips that are only available to those who host a show, making it more appealing for them to participate.

How can I follow up with potential hosts effectively?

Effective follow-up is key to securing bookings. After your initial conversation, send a personalized message thanking them for their interest and providing additional information about hosting. Schedule a follow-up call or message a few days later to answer any questions they might have. Be genuine and enthusiastic about the opportunity to work with them.

What role does networking play in increasing show bookings?

Networking is essential for increasing show bookings. Attend local events, join community groups, and connect with other direct sellers to expand your reach. Building a strong network can lead to referrals and new opportunities. Don’t forget to engage with your existing customers; they can be your best advocates and help spread the word about your shows.
