Encourage:
-Book and Look
We had alot of great training and tips that everyone shared during this segment. Thank you Ami Beery for sharing her "Book and Look" idea. There are many variations on this that will help boost your bookings at your parties. Ami had purchased 2 small holiday boxes at a local dollar store. In each box she puts a slip of paper that has a prize on it. When she talks about bookings she shares the boxes with her guests so that they will be enticed to book and then they can choose a box and see what prize that they will receive. Remember, they don't get the prize until their party is held. Other ways of doing the Book and Look is by using chinese restaurant boxes or using a Booking Tree (great for the holiday time now). You could use a small Christmas Tree and adorn it with small prizes like nail files or head bands. Or cut out dye cut templates of stockings and figures and write the prize on the cut out and place on your tree.
-Pop and Shop
Thank you Kerrin Laari for sharing her "Pop and Shop" idea for getting sales at vendor events. She puts small pieces of paper with a prize written on them and places them in blown up balloons. When someone places an order she will then have them choose a balloon to pop and see what prize they get. What a fun way to entice shoppers to make a purchase at the event. Plus it gets the attentions of onlookers who hear the "pop"!
-A Key to your Success
I shared a great idea given by Director, Sara Saleet on our weekly Director call. It is the "Magical Key Game". Items you will need to have for the party include: 1. Enough keys (or cut out paper keys) for all guests, 2. A Hostess treat and 3. A Guest treat. You will have to set the stage for the "Magical Key Game". Make sure you tell your customers that we now use the logo of a keyhole because Thirty-One can open so many doors of opportunity. We are going to play a fun game that will only touch on some fo the wondering things Thirty-One gifts has to offer. Make sure to always include the "Thank you Hostess" key and the "Magical" key. If you have a smaller crowd, make sure to include the keys that will help you with bookings and sponsoring. Take your collection of keys around and have the guest draw one from a zipper pouch( or better yet attach them to a product and as they are sharing the product features and ideas they can read the key as well). Make sure you keep out the hostess key and give it to her directly. Tell everyone that you are going to go around the room and when you get to them you would like for them to read the word on their key. When they read it, give a simple but accurate response. For instance, if their key says "$99, then you briefly share what that means or how it relates to Thirty-One. Obviously, that is regarding our New Consultant Kit. Whoever has the Magical Key will win the guest treat/prize. tell them how magical Thirty-One is and that they are just receiving a touch of Thirty-One opportunities.
Key Designs: You can design your key game however you would like. Here are some suggestions: Cut out an oversized key on poster board paper. Take a label with one of the words and stick tot he back and laminate. Cut out the keyhole and tie pretty seasonal ribbon through the hole. You can place a real key to your product and put a sticker on the back of the key. Hand out products to the guests. Have them read the key as you are talking about the product. They could also model the product.
Suggestions of words to put on keys:
Hostess, Dream Rewards, Director's Incentive Trip, $99, 31 Kid, Why?, 25% Commission, CER101 Training, National Conference, Bonus Checks, You are the KEY to my success (Hostess key), Magical Key (guest key who wins prize), etc.

- Did you Know??
I shared some things that you may or may not have known.
Did you know.......
....Having the Thirty-One logo embroidered on a product- When placing your order just type in Thirty-One in the name field and your product will come monogrammed in the Thirty-One font
....Active Status- To remain Active you only have to submit $200 every 3 consecutive months.
...Business Supply Orders- All orders with non-personalized items will ship faster than if they include personalized products. So I recommend you placing separate orders
....Commission Checks under $20- IF your commission check is under $20 for a single month, you will receive a credit to your Thirty-One account instead of a printed check.
....National Conference- It is being held July 8-7/10 in Columbus,OH at our brand new facility almost at completion
....Thermal Totes- They will now have pockets on all thermal totes (once the current non-pocket supply is depleted but anyone who orders one personalized will definitely get a pocket on it and all Happy Dot ones will have a pocket immediately)
...National Map- There is a new "clickable" map on www.thirtyonetoday.com. Printable version coming soon
....January 30th is our local new Bi-Monthly themed team meeting. Let me know if you would like to be connected to a Director in your state to attend their bi-monthly meetings.
....Leaders- There are 421 Florida Consultants, 2 Company wide Sr. Executive Directors, 14 Executive Directors, 29 Sr. Directors, 153 Directors and 631 Sr. Consultants
