Host a Fun Bunco Show: Tips for Beginners

[krzymomof4]

I was wondering if any of you could share how you do your bunco shows. I have only done one and at that time I didn't even know what bunco was. The hostess told me not to bring any food, not to demo anything and just set up a table of products and take orders. I sat there for 3 hours watching people I didn't know play a game that I didn't know anything about.
I have a lady who called me for a bunco show (not the same lady). I don't know where to begin since last time was such a mess.
Any suggestions?

One suggestion for a successful bunco show is to make sure you have a good understanding of the game and its rules. This will give you the opportunity to explain the game and answer any questions that may come up. You should also have some promotional items or prizes to give away throughout the night, to keep the game exciting for the players. Additionally, it's helpful to have a few sample products on hand for people to look at and try out, if applicable. Lastly, you should consider providing snacks and drinks, as this can help to create a more enjoyable atmosphere and encourage people to stay a bit longer.

As a frequent bunco hostess, I can share my tips for a successful bunco show. First and foremost, make sure you know the game and its rules. It's important to be able to explain it to others and join in if needed. Next, bring some snacks or treats to share with the group. While it's not necessary, it's a nice gesture and can help break the ice with the players. Instead of just setting up a table of products, try to incorporate them into the game. For example, you can give out prizes for the winners and use your products as the prizes. This will make the game more fun and engaging for everyone.Also, don't be afraid to interact with the players during the game breaks. Get to know them and their interests, and use that to your advantage when presenting your products. Finally, make sure to have order forms and catalogs readily available for those who are interested. And don't be discouraged if you don't make many sales at the event. Bunco is more about having fun and socializing, so focus on building relationships and the sales will come naturally. Good luck with your bunco show!
