  • Thanks LeopardLady! I'm excited but nervous. I had a friend agree to do a party today, so that is six I have agreed (including one myself) so far, so hopefully some more will book from those. I emailed a few people that I am in contact with on facebook so maybe one of them will be interested too. And another friend has promised to spread the word at baby-yoga so fingers crossed for some more bookings! Oh and I've asked my mum to mention it to her work colleagues.....hmmmm who else can I try.......my dad is a taxi driver so I'm not sure he's any use to me!!! I go to a few toddler groups, so maybe they will have some potential party hosts too.....

    Please let me know how your school fete goes, that sounds like fun. xxxxx
  • .......my dad is a taxi driver so I'm not sure he's any use to me!!!

    Use him to get his mates to buy things for their partners. May go down to the office on a set day. Offer advice and to wrap it. Ive heard a few people have had success with this approach.

    Yee-ha! Had my biggest party to date tonight - sales of over £421!!! Whoo-hoo! I put it down to much improved hostess coaching - made all the difference :)
    Keza the buzz is fab isn't it and this company feels so right, believe me I've tried a few :)
    Have fun everyone!

    Hi guys,
    I don't know if any of you are doing this already but I offered all my guests last night free gift wrapping to anyone who bought a collection from the sales, ie, body butter, body scrub and shower gel - gift wrapping to include pink ribbon, pink bow and free bath lily :) It went down really well and one lady ordered 3 sets for her upcoming sisters birthdays :)
    I also offered to gift wrap any men's products in time for Father's day minus the pink bow and bath lily,lol - will use green ribbon and maybe green bow instead :) - this also went down really well - customers appreciate the personal touch :)
    Hope that's of use to someone :)
    Have fun,
    Jenny x x :)
