Shake Parties
Shake parties are lots of FUN! They are also seriously
effective! More and more distributors around South Africa are
sharing their success sales using this marketing method. You
just cannot ignore the snow-ball effect your sales will
have.
The best way to start is to make a list of everyone you can
think of.
Call them, be very enthusiastic, and tell them you have gone
into business. As a part of your “on the job training”, you
could hold at least 7 parties in your first four weeks.
Say, “would there be any reason you couldn’t ask some of your
friends and neighbours in so I can share the product with them
and complete my initial 7 party requirements?”
Have your calendar in front of you and have an X beside each
time for the next three weeks you can hold a party. Give her
choices of times and decide on a definite date. Share with her,
but don’t tell her too much. Keep her curiosity about your
product high. Keep on booking until you have called everyone
you can think of. The more bookings to begin with, the
better!
Also, self host a couple of parties. You invite your close
friends and neighbours over to your house. Call them and
explain you have to do some, “on the job training,” and on that
(date) and (time) you will be holding a party at your house.
From this type of party, book future parties.
After the initial parties, go back to the hostess to thank her
and to offer her an incentive to continue hosting parties for
you. Explain the Business Opportunity and then add that if she
would like to just start with parties, you will offer her say,
a 10% commission on all products sold at her parties. She’ll
actually line up bookings for you once she understands how they
will benefit her. She may even decide to become a distributor
herself once she starts earning a substantial income.
Outline for shake parties
Before the guests show up:
1. Set up one of everything for display.
2. Mix Thermojetics STRONG – prepare lemon +
sugar or the new flavours are great.
3. Or make a Thermo punch – mix with some
fruit juice, chopped fruit & some mint leaves &
ice.
4. Spray room with a man’s fragrance (women
LOVE this).
5. Always sit in a relaxed circle, not cinema
style.
6. Be sure you have a few testimonials /
pictures (stories) to pass around.
7. You, the presenter, should ideally sit –
not stand.
8. Have product on hand to sell on the
spot.
9. Crush Lipobond tablets and practise the
Lipobond demonstrations (see example in no. 7 below)
As guests arrive:
1. Hand each guest a cup of Thermo tea /
punch and tell them there is lemon/sugar if they need it.
2. When all guests are seated – have hostess
introduce you and tell your story.
3. Tell brief company history. Be
enthusiastic, informal but INFORMATIVE.
4. Ask how many guests are there to lose
weight, gain weight or maintain good health.
5. Have your hostess in the kitchen now
mixing 2-3 flavours of shakes (mix 1 in low fat milk, 1 in
juice and 1 in yoghurt to show the variety.)
6. Tell about products & explain how to
lose, maintain and gain weight on these products.
7. Serve small cups of the shake, giving each
one’s mix preference. Ask them how they taste?
8. Ask them if they feel any different from
the thermo tea?
9. Do the Lipobond demonstration. (Take a
clear glass, ill with tepid water, add a teaspoon of oil, take
the crushed Lipobond tablet and sprinkle over oil. WATCH IT
GRAB THE OIL AND SINK TO THE BOTTOM!
10. Keep the chatter going so people in the
room do not have a chance for any negative thoughts!
Good luck, have fun and enjoy it!
