So how do you do an online party? Its really quite simple When you are networking you will come across sites that are holding expos check them out to see if they are free to join or cost a small fee, see how many visitors they expect to come to the expo, will you be solely responsible for the advertising of the event or will it be a joint venture. ONE quick note here even if the company is doing a mass amount of advertising it is best if you also do your own advertising for your own event. When you start an online party you will need to know a few things ahead of time. #1 Where its going to be located #2 what type of games you will be playing, everyone loves games for a list of games to play for both online and offline parties and chats look at page 59 in the Step by Step Marketing Guide. #3 What type of prizes you will be giving away #4 Who will you be inviting, where you network, family and friends etc #5 Start advertising your party a full 2 weeks in advance, ask for people who are interested emails so you can send them reminders! I can't tell you how many times I wanted to go to an online party and just plain forgot the day and time. An update about a couple days before and the day of will help your attendance! #6 Be prepared to talk about not only your products but your business opportunities if its offered. Ok its the day of the party what do you do? #1 Send out an email reminder, post on networks and groups you are a member of #2 Party starts introduce yourself and tell them a little about your company and ask everyone in the chat room to introduce themselves. #3 Ask if anyone is looking for a specific item or what their needs are for that day #4 Tell them about your specials, if you do a drawing for attendees do it now #5 Have them look at your website direct them to the areas you want them go to #6 Play a game #7 Announce the winner of the game #8 Ask several times during the party if anyone has any questions #9 Tell everyone when you will be closing the party. #10 Thank everyone for coming Now you can adjust the party to what makes you feel comfortable.
