One of the first things I tell new designers on our team is that hosting their own Launch Party is key to starting off your new business successful. Your kit should arrive in about 3-5 Business Days after you enroll as a designer. Once it arrives look through the whole kit. It sure is a LOT of fun!
Why I suggest hosting your own Jewelry Bar®:
Steps to a successful launch Jewelry Bar®:
1) Relax! Have fun! You know mostly everyone attending. They are your friends and family. They want to see you succeed.
2) Ask your Mentor is she is available to attend for moral support. This is also a great way to watch her in action. If she cannot attend see if she will be available by phone for questions in case you have any.
3) Send out Invitations, Evites, or text messages for your Launch Party about 10 -12 days in advance. Literally invite everyone you know –remember only 1 out of every 4 people invited will be able to show up –so over invite!
4) Create a FaceBook event for your launch Jewelry Bar®
5) Follow-up with phone calls, text messages, Facebook and email reminders are a MUST!! You would be surprised how many people will forget. Life is busy. Plan to contact everyone 2-3 days before your event as a GENTLE reminder. Some people will ask you to contact them the day before or even the day of the event. Put those reminders in your phone or on your paper planner.
6) Take a look at your Calendar for the next two - three months. Mark the dates that you are busy with your family, doctor appointments, etc. You want to make sure you are first marking the important dates to you before you put the dates you can book Jewelry Bars®. Choose the dates that you can do Jewelry Bars® on. You can even do the chain and three dangles gift to get them booking their Jewelry Bar® with you. How the Chain and Three Dangles work: You wear a chain you love, put three exclusive Origami Owl® Dangles on the chain, Tell your guests that the first three people to book their Jewelry Bars® will get a chain to get the dangle of their choice for {FREE} at their Jewelry Bar®.
7) Keep your food and beverages simple. You want your guests to focus on your introduction of your new business and the Jewelry.
8) Set up your Jewelry Bar® Display-- Create a few different lockets for them to see. Have all of your designer business kit out. They will want to see and touch the product.
9) Set up a check out area with your buy, host or join flyers, talking about each aspect of the business; a calculator (I use my iPad. Message me to find out what apps I recommend), a money collection bag or lock box (I use a divided wallet I bought), and your calendar. Ask for referrals –who do your friends and family knows that would just love Origami Owl®?? Remember to have a sheet to collect their information for Catalog, Online or in home Jewelry Bars®, and your newsletter. Your guests will probably have questions about what the difference between each party. Be sure you write down their dates in your planner with the time, location, the Hostesses name and phone number. Provide a Hostess Packet to them.
10) Have drawing slips our for your guests. Do a free drawing for something like a free charm or dangle
Have Fun! If you have any questions please reach to your mentor to answer them. If I am your mentor I would love to answer any questions you have.
