I know some people on here lately have talked about hosts canceling parties because of low attendance. I have been doing something a little different when I have 3 or less people in attendance. The guests still seem to have fun, we talk about alot of products and it's not just me standing up there talking the whole time. Now, this was before I started doing an interactive show but it might still give some people an idea to help them.
When the guests walk in, I have them grab three products: their favorite product, the product they would love to own and a product that they have no clue what it is.
I start the show with having them introduce themselves and tell me which of the three products is their favorite and have them sell it to the other guests. This really gets them talking. Then after we go around the room, I usually talk about stoneware, cookware, or something that I know they don't have in their hands. Then we go around again and I have them talk about the product they would love to own. This helps because if someone in the room as it, they will usually encourage the guest to buy it. Or they can get great tips from me on why they need to purchase it today. Then I usually talk about something else that hasn't been covered. Then we talk about the product that they don't know about and why they thought it was interesting. I usually ask the group if anyone knows what it is and if they don't I have the guess (one of the big ones is the citrus press!). After this is usually when I go into my hosting and recruiting talk.
I like doing this kind of show with a small crowd because it takes less time, gets the products in their hands and gets them talking about it. They usually seem to have a lot of fun! Just thought I would share!
