How to Sell Your Products to Your Friends and Family
- Image via Wikipedia
I was looking through some photos on a friends Facebook page and she was showing pictures of her trip in Arizona (which happens to be the state I now live in). If you use Facebook, you will know that people can add comments to peoples status updates and their photos and photo albums. Some of these strings of conversation get pretty long.
The snippets of conversation turned into how dry Arizona is and how dry her skin is getting. All of a sudden there are women throwing out the names of these products they love and what has worked for them, myself included! Some were even posting links to the product for her to see.
Here are all these women… selling someone elses product for them and getting no commission. HUH?
Best Way to Get Party Bookings!
We’ve been asked once or Twice: “What is the best way to get Party Bookings”
Well, there is no short answer to that; however, I’d like to give you a quick tip that can get you Out THERE more!
Go out and get to a Networking Meeting. Find out if there is a “ladies luncheon” this week, perhaps through your local chamber of commerce. Get yourself a ticket and make the “intention” of meeting someone who YOU connect with!
Charlotte and I both love doing this! We love to meet new people! We both make it a point that if we Connect with someone, we go out for lunch….meet for coffee. Develop a Friendship with someone NEW!
The point here is not to “Bug them about your business”; in fact, I recommend that you don’t even bring up your business…..”they will ASK YOU!” At that point, tell them what you do….what YOU Love.
Again, and this is important…..do NOT tell them about your business! Just enjoy your lunch or coffee!!!
Trust me, I’ve had more business over the years just getting to know people in this way. Your new friend may or may not have a show with you, however they will feel more comfortable knowing that you are truly trying to make a personal connection and not a sales pitch!
What will happen is this:
- The next time you have an open house…your new friend will be more than happy to show up.
- When someone in your “new friends” circle of influence has a need…your new friend will “highly recommend” YOU as the great and wonderful person you are!
I’ve made so many wonderful connections and friendships (and yup extra money too) just by connecting at least once a week with someone new!
Good luck!
& Let us know how this works for YOU!

Larry Platt is a genius! He wrote a song that only has 3 basic lines yet it speaks volumes. This simple song with these 3 lines put a complete picture in every one’s head in America.

The difference between ATTRACTION MARKETING & sitting around on your ass waiting for the world to come to you!
WOW what a long title! I prefer things be short and sweet but some things require more words.
Attraction Marketing has always been practiced through out the centuries, it’s not a new idea it just has a newer name. I’m not sure if anyone assigned a name to the practice before. Most people in sales have heard of attraction marketing and some even know what it is.
How does attraction marketing work?
Get YOUR home party business going in 2010!
So it’s January of a new year and some of you in Home Party Businesses may be thinking “It’s the beginning of the year.. everyone has already spent all their money on the holidays and no one wants to have a party” or “People are all partied out and just want to rest”.
