ON THE SHOW. SAMPLE: “When
you say the magic words, in addition to taking home your prize today,
you receive a 3x9 pillar of your choice FREE with your shopping
spree!”
ORDER FORM VARIATION
I encourage guests to use the order
form as their wish list by saying this:
"One more convenience with PL is
being able to place my orders online, so no one but you and me need to
see the order forms! So please write the name of every item you like as
you browse thru the catalog, and when it's time to shop we'll only put
the prices next to the items you purchase tonight! This way you have a
wish lost all ready lined up and I can contact you when your favorites
go on special!" I also encourage them to write gift ideas and who
would like it so when I make a customer service call I can say "so
do you want to order the lighthouse for Jane this month,,,?"
Instead of using actual dps,'s I use
the ORDER FORM as the DPS!
I ask them to write their email addy in the box in the center of the
form, and to put a * in the box as well if they want to be on my email
list.
As I add up each order I use the questions in the center of the form to
get the info I want: starting with "I would like a PL
presentation..." I ask, "so when would you like to reserve
your own shopping spree?" With the 3rd question I ask "so what
did you think of the demo tonight? Do you think my job looks like
fun?" I stay very conversational and if I don't get the feeling
that this is someone to sponsor, I fish for a referral- "So do you know someone
who could use an extra $100 a night? I am always looking to expand my
team!" on the "I attended the show question I simply ask
if they enjoyed the demo and learned something new about candles.
