Hi Ladies!

I have a hostess that is going all out for her Spa Party. She is having pedicures and massages after I do my spa! She also wants to offer a gift to all the guests who are coming. She asked if I could put something together for about $5.

ANY SUGGESTIONS???

You could give each guestone mini or a small tube of the Regeneration Extreme Repair Hand Creme? Which ever you choose wrap a cute ribbon around it.

How about a small size Etreme Repair Hand Therapy? Retail is $4.50. (Or the Hand & Nail small cream is $5.00). You could put it in an organza bag to make it look nice. Maybe also put in a pretty emory board or a sample lip color.

If she's willing to go up a little bit, you could offer the Express mini set for $8. What a cute SET...and travel bag included. You get more for the $ than ext repair mini. Of course, you'd be breaking even on it. Hmm...maybe you don't wanna do that??

Is the lady who's doing pedicures, going to use any of our products on the ladies? She's not bringing her own products is she? Is the massage or pedicure lady charging for their time? My concern is that the guests will come with a budget, which they'll have to split 3 ways. Will it be worth your time??

Thanks for the ideas ladies!

the hostess is paying for the massages and the pedi's. That was my concern too!

oh good. You won't have to worry about their budgets then. Wow, this is really nice of this hostess. She must like spas alot. A recruit lead, perhaps?

If she is paying for the gifts I would definately go with product versus minis that way you will make a little on each one! DO the small ER Hand Creme and throw in a SOH sample card! Or made a couple smaples of your own to include.

I would also say something during your spa to the ladies along the lines of " You are going to be pampered later by such and such professionals, but I would like to first teach you how you can recreate this experience (or pamper yourself) at home"

also can you get the pedicure and massage people to use some of your products...even if the hostess is paying for it it would be better to have your stuff out there rather than other products

You could say in your spa portion that the person doing the pedicures and the person doing the massages will be using some of your products that you would normally demonstrate during your portion.
Also, those people my turn into recruits for you too...they can see how they can incorporate your products into their business. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!!!

THANK YOU! You ladies always offer the best advice and words of encouragement. I will let you know how it goes. The spa isn't until the end of the month so look for my update!

Maybe buy the Express Spa kit and then offer one of each item in it to each lady. That will add variety. One would get the mini eye pads, one green tea, one HS Hand treatment, etc... It's $8 for the whole thing, but it's cheaper if you break it down. Maybe add a foot thingie that they can rub on their feet at the dollar store. That's two item for $5.

i like Ronjess21's idea. then just wrap them up pretty, maybe just in those cello party gift bags and add some ribbon. if you have money to spare, maybe add a small wrapped piece of chocolatesmileys/smiley1.gif

You could do the save your sole line as a gift-since that is on the Pedicure end-maybe break up the SYS and put the ER and a SYS item in a bag with chocolate or candy?

SYS mini is also a good idea. Just be sure to include non foot stuff because that's a back door way to have people try other products since they will only be focusing on feet products in your spa. :)
