I just got my list from one of my February hosts - 8 people! In my host coaching call, I stressed the importance of overinviting. I'm going to call her back and see if we can brainstorm more people. I'll tell her that only 1/3 to 1/4 of the guests invited are able to attend, so let's see if we can brainstorm a few more people so that her party will be as successful as possible and we can get her as much free, 1/2 priced, and reduced product as she wants (and then some!) . Also, should I tell her that 3 of her 8 are invited to another party earlier in the month? (one of those ladies has already placed an outside order through my website for that party) This is my third low invite list of my 7 parties. My SIL invited 17 people, many of those I knew wouldn't be able to come. We had 4 + host at that part - but it wasn't bad though! My commissionable sales were $602.25. My second person invited 18...and now 8. :cry:
Before it sounds all bad, my other shows have invited 35 and 33! :love: Those shows are going to be so much fun too! The host of one show wants a chocolate bliss show w/ choc martinis - and she's a riot, so I know we're going to have fun. The other show is one of the parents of my former students - and she invited several mothers of my old students, other parents from the school, and others. I love these parents, so I know that one is going to be fun too! I left on a great note and got along wonderfully with these parents, so it's all good. And since I'm not teaching this year, there is no conflit of interest.
Maybe you guys can offer me some advice. What am I doing wrong to get these low invite numbers? I'm host coaching by the book, trying to build excitement, and still... And I know the host with the 8 invites is excited about her show too. Help!
