Hi Ladies
I am a new consultant (signed up last week :-) I have 3 parties booked and I have a few questions. (My upline does not do parties, I am doing them to help my team meet fundraising goals).
1. I would love sample scripts from anyone that has held parties....my audience will consist of athletic types (triathlon) and their friends...I am thinking of promoting skin care, sun products, nutrition....
2. I am donating 20% of proceeds to the person fundraising for the charity (hostess). Should I still give a hostess gift or is the donation towards their fundraising goal enough?
3. How do I address anyone who wants to open a wholesale account or if someone is interested in the biz side? I do not want to take away from the charity or offend the hostess. I have the chance to do a LOT of parties through this charity so if one hostess is upset it can have a negative impact on future parties (or lack thereof).
I really have enjoyed reading this forum, and I appreciate any help/advice you can offer.

Because you are only giving 20% to the charity, you should have no
problem rewarding the hostess AND offering wholesale. I generally
give 50% to the charity if I am not offering hostess rewards.
