That was my hardest part too! But now I have it down! I started with thanking the host for coming and giving her a Season's Best Cookbook. Then I introduce myself and tell my story. Then I ask for introductions including how they know the host and their favorite product. After we do introductions then I tell them that I have a few more products to talk about and then go into the other products.

Discuss with the host before hand if you will start on time or wait 5-10 mins for late arrivals. When you are set to start you can ask her to make an announcement or you can go arround and invite everyone to come sit... and you will be getting started in about 2 minutes. At times I just announce that "we are going to get started and first off I want to thank Suzy hostess for inviting me into her home..." The rest just rolls from there.
