Hi ladies,
I play this game at EVERY party and always double book. It is called Spend, Save or Gamble (you can call it chance if you dont like the word Gamble)
okay what you need is a cane basket big enough to hold approx 12-15 little gifts, then you need to get about 12-15 little gifts, some little stickers, approx 15 5c coins and 1 X 10c coin. You also need some of your recruiting info. ( you will need to put stickers on the bottom of half of your gifts and place them in the basket so the guests dont see the stickers) Fake $100 notes (these go inside recruiting brochure)
Now to play the game: At the Biginning of your party (or the end wherever you like) hand out 1 5c coin to all but 1 person give them the 10c. now tell them, how many parties can you go to that actually pays you to shop??? lol
Okay, now tell them that this is for a game we will play later (if you do it at the biginning, if play at the end then play game now.) please keep your coin in a safe place.
When you choose to play the game this is how it works.
Okay ladies, we are going to play a game called Spend, Save or Gamble... you must know right now that if you choose to gamble and get a gift with a sticker on the bottom them you have won a party with me. Does everybody UNDERSTAND the rules of the game??
okay, go to the first lady and ask if she would like to spend, save or gamble. If she chooses to save her 5c then hand her recruiting info and say "well seeing as though you would like to save that 5c, maybe in 5 yrs time when it has turned into 20c i will see you again, if you need to save more than that, then here take this $100 and if you would like to make this real to save, give me a call"
If she chooses to spend her 5c, then tell her "this will be the deposit on your order tonight and if you would like to spend more, then here take this $100 and when you need to make this to be able to spend this then give me a call"
If she chooses to Gamble with her 5c, then she can choose a gift from the basket to take home with her but if she gets one with a sticker she must book a party with you tonight then hand her your planner and say " heres my planner/diary please have a look what dates i have available and i will book your party in soon". (if she doesnt get a sticker, then tell her that she can still keep her gift and that if she wants to book a party to see you afterwards) this is also showing you that he is willing to book a party as she is choosing to gamble and get a gift. so you can still get a booking out of her as she has shown interest in maybe winning a party.
You then do this to every person in the room.
let me know how this works for you.
