Set the trays of scent samples out on the table or floor with order forms and let people SMELL and then you SELL. Perfect way to take orders, collect money ahead of time and use that money to place the orders. No inventory needed with this option and you never have to use your own cash to place the order!
2. Catalog (Book) Parties - Loan your sample bag to a friend with about 20 catalogs and price list included and set up a Catalog Party where that person takes the bag, lets people smell and they take orders for you. You award free product to that person based on sales! See party guides in back office for incentive ideas.
3. Career Day Classroom Presentations - Take your sample bag into your child's classroom and give a presentation about what you do as an independent distributor with your own candle business. Message me for Classroom Education and Craft guide.
4. Classroom Craft - Make scent sachets for the kids to take home to mom for her car, lingerie drawer or purse. Use the sample bag to create excitement for all the scents you carry. Make a game out of it. The craft is a way to offer something of value to the kids and teacher. Message me for Classroom Education and Craft guide.
5. Table at Craft Fair or Booth - If you don't have a large inventory to take with you to a craft fair or booth at a farmer's market, expo, etc. then use your sample bag to take orders.
6. Expos - Take your sample bag, business cards and scent samples with you to an EXPO in your town. You don't always have to invest in a booth in order to take advantage of an EXPO. Walk around and look for those that are in your niche market. My niche market is MOMS so I look for those that have kids with them in strollers, etc. and I ask them if they'd like a small gift, hand them a scent sample and ask them to enter my contest on my website. The strong and wonderful scent of the bag usually opens up a lot of conversation. You may not even have to open it up!!
7. Walk and Talk Lifestyling - Pack presentation brochures, catalogs, business cards, scent samples and some votives into your bag. Keep the bag in your car and when you are out and about running errands and you talk to someone who is interested in candles or a home business, you have the bag to show as a great tool they can will have available, find their favorite scent and literature packed inside. Office on the GO!!
8. VIP Candle Party - This is a party for one person who is unable to get out and do their holiday shopping. Your sample bag is crucial for the success of this party!! Message me for VIP Holiday Guide.
9. Holiday Dinner Parties with Family - Take your Sample Bag with you to Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner when your family gets together. It's the perfect time to take some last minute orders for the holidays!
10. Girls Night IN! - Plan a night with your girlfriends to come over and eat fun foods, drink fun drinks and SMELL AND SELL. Throw the sample bag trays on the floor and enjoy a night of laughing and smelling great scents!
