Lately I've been hearing about how some consultants are having huge success with using wish lists instead of order forms at first in their shows. What do you do? If you use a wish list, or wait to give out the order forms, what words are you using with your guests? How are you explaining things to them and what system do you use for during the presentation and at check out?What I usually do is give them everything in a lap board at the beginning of the show. They browse and shop as I do the demo. I usually have at least one guest who can only stay for part of the show, so this lets them fill it out sooner. Then when I'm done w/ the demo, those in a hurry usually come to me right away. Then the others trickle in with their forms.I'm thinking of giving them the alphabetical list of our products and telling them to use it as their wish list and that when they are ready to order, come to me and I'll give them their order form and we'll fill it out together so I can help them make their final decisions. (viewing me as their personal shopper assistant or whatever)I'm just wondering how best to go about this, what really I should be saying. What the pros and cons would be.I also thought that for tonight's show I could ask who still has Christmas shopping to do. Then they can focus on getting as much of that accomplished as they'd like to at this party (with my help w/ giving them gift ideas) and a little for themselves, but save the bulk of what they have on their own wishlist for when they have their own party. I really need January bookings, so I thought this might be a way "in", KWIM?
