Often, the little things that you say can build big results.  Try some of these!

Double up by encouraging double hostess parties.  “Who do you know who could bring their friends to your house for your first dating?”

Suggest helping customers by purchasing one gift at this demonstration: that is one less gift to shop for later.

After you have secured two bookings from the party, set a goal to secure two people to be order takers for the hostess.

Be sure to set a date for the party before giving the hostess credit.  Avoid saying, “I will call you to set a date.”

Use a seven-day challenge: seven paid orders in seven days for a half-price item or $7.

Ask customers and friends who would NEVER have a party to help collect orders.

Conduct your own mini fundraiser.

Have your day planner available when working on an event.  People may want to know about a specific date or time.

What little thing will you pass on?
