Hi All!


I have been dabbling in selling Arbonne for a while now and am ready to kick start my business. I am planning on doing a grand openingin March, but am curious as to which days seem to be best for this type of thing. Have any of you found better days? or times?


Thanks!

I think it depends on the schedules of your attendees. There is not going to be a perfect time that everyone can make it but I would make a list of the folks you want to invite & see what the most likely time would be that the majority could make it. You could also have 2 different times for your Grand Opening, perhaps 1 on a weekend& another during the week in the afternoon or whatever best fits your guest list. When I had a storefront, we had several guest lists and staggered the invitations to suit our intended guests.

I think if you are inviting people that work full-time, it is always best to do it right after work (before they go home & don't want to get back out!).


If you are inviting stay at home (or work from home) moms, then maybe an early brunch-type of event.

Thanks for the ideas. Most everyone (including myself) are working from outside the home. (My goal is to be a WAHM, that's my why!) smileys/smiley2.gifTwo events is a great idea. I was thinking of having one at my home and asking my MIL and SIL to have a combined party (at my house if they would like) and invite their friends.
