To be honest, just by asking everyone. I always asked everyone if they wanted to host. Three or four of those are maybes but I put them in because they were pretty sure they'd do a party just not sure when so I added them in on a month they thought they might be able to do it. I wanted to make sure the host got credit and I will keep following up. The last party I did, there we no bookings. I didn't change the way I did anything. I think sometimes you're going to have more people willing to host and sometimes not. I don't feel I did anything special for the bookings except pray. I give Glory to God for any success I have. I've also had several friends in church that have been very gracious in hosting. Some doing so just to help me. Bookings is always a concern because they're what keep our business going. I think the most important part is to really explain how great are host benefits are. Some people have thought they'd have to pay shipping or tax on their free stuff. Even though the catalog explains some of it people just hear it better when you say it. Hope that helps! 
Thank you all!
God bless,
Amanda
