Soon, you’ll be consistently improving your business on a daily basis! BOOKING AND SALES d15 Minutes Follow up with customers who have said things like, “I’d like to book with you in a few months” or “Please send me the latest catalog when it comes out. Do your Big MAC calls or follow-up calls with customers by using your Customer Connection Card. Keep an on-going Who Do You Know list for potential bookings. Periodically contact individuals on that list. Call customers about refills on new products. HOSTESS COACHING d15 Minutes Call each of your Hostesses and coach them on how to have a successful party.

Manage your inventory, order product, add contact information to product packaging. Check and process Personal Website orders. Update your expense information and file receipts and paperwork. 6 MARKETING YOUR BUSINESS YOUR COMMERCIAL By developing and practicing an effective commercial, you will be able to answer the question, “What do you do?” or “What is Pure Romance?” with confidence while telling friends, family members or complete strangers what you do and how it can benefit them. The Formula: 1. Your Name. 2. A brief description of Pure Romance. “We are an in-home party plan specializing in romance enhancement products such as lotions, lubricants, and bedroom accessories.” This gives others a point of reference. 3. What you sell. Explain in a tasteful, yet simple way that Pure Romance sells lotions, lingerie and bedroom accessories. 4. Your Offer. This is where you need to spend the majority of the conversation. You will want to explain why somebody would want to learn more about Pure Romance—what’s in it for them? Example #1: Hi, my name is Heather and I am a Pure Romance Consultant. Pure Romance is an in-home party plan that specializes in romance enhancement. We sell an exclusive line of lotions, lubricants, and bedroom accessories. And just for hosting a party, you could earn up to $100 in free product the night of your party! Example #2: Hi, my name is Leanne and I am a Pure Romance Consultant. Pure Romance is an in-home party plan company that sells an amazing line of lotions, lingerie, and bedroom accessories. Hosting a party is a great way to see and learn about our products, while having a fun girls night in! I love to spoil my Hostesses! You can earn anywhere from $50-$100 in free product just for hosting a party! Important Points Talk about the amount of product a Hostess receives and the other benefits of holding a party in a way that people can immediately understand. You should develop a commercial that you are comfortable with. Practice saying it so that it rolls off your tongue naturally. When you have your basic commercial committed to memory, turning an ordinary conversation into a Pure Romance conversation will be easy and natural. 7 FINDING BUSINESS—WHO DO YOU KNOW LIST PRE-HOMEWORK If you didn’t have an opportunity to fill out the Who Do You Know List prior to attending PRU LIVE, fill in the blanks below to get you started!

When creating your list, don’t rule people out by prejudging if they will be interested in Pure Romance. This exercise is meant to help you identify all the people you know.

One person will be the Consultant, another will be the potential Hostess, and the third will moderate the conversation. Each person should rotate for each scenario. Making a Call: Hello, may I speak with______? Hi, this is __________ with Pure Romance. Have I reached you at a good time? Great! I am excited to share some awesome news with you. I am currently booking parties for my Pure Romance business! Are you familiar with Pure Romance?

You’ve seen how much fun a Pure Romance party can be—how much MORE fun would you have if you knew you were going to walk away with free product at the end of the night? I have set a personal goal to schedule 6 parties in the next 30 days. Would you like to be one of the first Hostesses to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity and receive extra FREE product? Using the Customer Connection Card: Hi _______. Thank you so much for taking the time to fill out the Customer Connection Card during the party. Your feedback helps me create the best experience for you! Just to refresh what we went over during the party, the number scale means: 1-3: Not very interested 4-6: Interested, but would like some more information 7-9: Interested, when can we schedule a party or an opportunity meeting? 10: Sign me up (for a party or as a new Consultant)! Now that we have had a chance to review your order, let’s take a minute to review your Customer Connection Card. You have indicated a “6” as your level of interest in booking a party. Are there additional questions I can answer for you? I’d be happy to review my available party dates and send you home with a Hostess Packet. 9 I’d like to get at least a tentative date on the calendar for you, so let’s take a minute and fill out the inside page of the Customer Connection Card with: Your Party is Set for Your Party Planning Call As a Hostess, You’ll Receive You can utilize the back page of the Customer Connection Card to fill out your wish list, and we can start working to help you earn some of these great products together!

TEXT MESSAGING SCRIPTS Text messaging shouldn’t be your only form of contact, as it doesn’t give you much space for writing. However, it can be an excellent medium to use for quick updates or news you want to share!

For all my past customers who have attended a Pure Romance party, tell me what your favorite thing about the party was! The first person who answers gets 15% off your next order! Internet Marketing Etiquette Marketing on the Internet is a wonderful way to reach a large population of potential customers, but there are a few things you should keep in mind! Remember to keep it appropriate! People have different comfort levels when it comes to sexually related content and how it is shared on their personal pages. Assume that everyone can see your posts, so keep them PG-13! You are posting to a public site, so always remember that this information can be accessible to just about anyone. Do not post information about customers or photos without permission. Make sure you get approval for everything! Know your audience! Make sure the messaging is appropriate for the group you are targeting! Consider posting “teasers” that require people to message you for additional information about products or other sexual health related information! Watch your posting frequency! Make sure that it is balanced between business, personal and current events. Don’t bombard your customers and friends with information. It should be relevant, timely and fun! 13 SOCIAL NETWORKING FACEBOOK GROUPS AND FAN PAGES Making connections on Facebook should not be limited to just your friends. Through both Facebook Pages and Facebook Groups, you can stay more connected with everything that matters in your life— including your personal Pure Romance business. To forge these ties on Facebook, it’s important to understand the difference between Facebook Pages and Facebook Groups. Facebook Pages Like a friend’s profile, Facebook Pages enable public figures, businesses, organizations, or other entities to create an authentic and public presence on Facebook. Unlike your profile, Facebook Pages are visible to everyone on the Internet by default. You, and every person on Facebook, can connect with these Pages by becoming a fan and then receive their updates in your News Feed where you can interact with them. Creating a Facebook Page for your Pure Romance business is a great way to separate business from pleasure, keeping your posts appropriate to your customers. You can promote your business, Hostess incentives, and product specials all from your business page. Customers can “like” your page to stay updated on what you have to offer. You can even ask them to join during the party! Facebook Groups While Pages were designed to be the official profiles for entities, such as celebrities, brands or businesses, Facebook Groups are the place for small group communication and for people to share their common interests and express their opinion. Groups allow people to come together around a common cause, issue, or activity to organize, express objectives, discuss issues, post photos, and share related content. They are perfect for your VIP Customers, Potential Consultants, or even your Team Members! When you create a group, you can decide whether to make it publicly available for anyone to join, require administrator approval for members to join or keep it private and by invitation only. As with Pages, new posts by a Group are included in the news feeds of its members, and members can interact and share with other members of the Group. Together, Pages and Groups bring even more ways for you to stay connected using Facebook. 14 SETTING PARTY EXPECTATIONS One of the key aspects of making any party a success is setting expectations for each party. Determining your party goals up front will give you something concrete to work toward as you are building your business—one party at a time. Each party will act as a step on the ladder of your business’ success. Determining what you want to accomplish at every party will help you reach your goals and achieve your Why. Your goals for a successful party should be specific and measurable, giving you something to work toward at every party! You may be wondering where to start… not to worry! We’ve given you guidelines that have helped Consultants at all levels of the business to have the kind of success they deserve at every party! Retail Sales Goal: $600 or More Party Average Do you know how much you need to sell at each party in order to meet your financial goals? Going into the party planning process with concrete goals in mind will increase your chances of meeting them! You should be working to have a consistent party average of close to $600 per party. As a new Consultant, you might find your average is slightly lower—and that is OK! Work to build your average to a standard $600 per party. Experienced Consultants may find that their party average is closer to $800. Either way, what would happen if you set a goal of $1,000 per party? Chances are, you will increase your party average to above your normal $600 per party just by setting your sights a bit higher! Take control of your party average—all you need is to harness the power of setting expectations for both you and your Hostess! Attendance Goal: 10-15 Women at Every Party The number of women you have at each party plays a huge role in increasing the Retail average of your parties. Encouraging your Hostess to over-invite is a great way to ensure you have at least 10 guests present at every party. Remember, over-inviting protects you in the event that some of her guests don’t show up. It’s a good idea to invite up to 30% more guests than the Hostess hopes to have in attendance to account for any guests that may cancel. However, what if you simply told your Hostess, “Most of my Hostesses have at least 10 guests at every party.” Do you think she would work to meet your expectations? Absolutely! That way, you can easily help her over-invite to ensure she has at least 10 women at her party. A win-win for both of you! Outside Orders Goals: Collect 5 Outside Orders Collecting Outsider Orders should be a staple for you with every party. They’re a surefire way to increase your party average. Set a goal to collect five Outside Orders with each party you hold. The average order is about $50 per person! Can you imagine what you could you do with an extra $250 in Retail sales from every party? That’s the kind of impact Outside Orders can have on your business! All you need to do is know what you are working toward and show your Hostesses how collecting Outside Orders will benefit them! Later in this section, you will learn how you can make collecting Outside Orders easy for every Hostess! Party Booking Goal: Book 3 New Parties at Every Party Booking new parties at your parties is what keeps momentum behind your business. However, setting specific party booking goals will help you build on that momentum, propelling your business to new heights! How many parties should you be booking at every party? The answer is simple—three! One party to replace the party you are currently holding, one party to help you grow your business, and one party to use as a Launch Party for a new team member. It really is that easy! Whatever your financial 15 goals are for your Pure Romance business, working to book three parties at every party will set you up for definite success. Potential New Consultant Goal: Schedule 1 Follow-Up Call Per Party Growing and expanding your team is what will drive you to achieve Ultimate Wealth with your Pure Romance business. In the short term, it means an immediate Sponsor Bonus and a potential increase in your Buying Discount! Sharing the opportunity with other women should be second nature at each of your parties. You should make a point to ask everyone if they are interested in learning more about Pure Romance and set at least one follow-up call per party. If you are regularly setting up time to talk to women you’ve met at your parties, you will ensure that you’re consistently expanding your business! Making it Work Never underestimate the power of setting expectations for yourself, your business and even your Hostesses. By coaching to these aspects with every single party you hold, the odds are that much higher that you’ll hit your target! It’s important to remember that any goals you set for yourself, while playing an important part in the success of your business, should be flexible and adaptable based on the needs of each Hostess. What happens if your goals for the number of guests at the parties you hold are 10-15 people and your Hostess only wants to invite 8 of her closest friends? Do you turn down her party? Of course not! You can always adjust as needed. Having the initial goal gives you something concrete to work toward for every party! Each party is its own, individual experience—that’s an important part of what makes being a Pure Romance Consultant so great! While setting goals to achieve your Why is important, the most important goal you can set for your parties is to leave each Hostess happy with the experience she had with you and passing the good word along to all her friends! 16 HOSTESS COACHING HOSTESS PACKET Once a Hostess has set a definite booking date, you need to give her a Hostess Packet. Your Hostess will count on you to provide tips and suggestions that will give you both a successful party. When you’ve provided her with a Hostess Packet, you’ll also need to coach her on how to use the materials you’ve included. HOSTESS PACKET TIPS To achieve a professional look, Pure Romance recommends using the approved and official Hostess paperwork. You can download these materials on the Consultant Online Office to get you started! You can include a variety of games to help increase attendance or party sales the night of the party. Check out Consultant Online Office or your Pure Romance University LIVE workbook to see if there is a game that is right for you! Make sure to read through the entire Hostess Packet document, customizing the materials accordingly by adding your contact information or details about your special offers. Each time you customize and print a document, you should print and keep a master copy in a file for easy reference when printing more copies. By using labels or a self-inking stamp, you can add your name and contact information to all materials you pass out. You can purchase a self-inking stamp or computer labels at most office supply stores. We recommend printing all your Hostess Packet paperwork in color.

HOSTESS PARTY PREP FORM QUESTIONS What was your main reason for booking a Pure Romance party? This question helps you uncover her WHY (free product, fun night out, etc) If it is free product, what is on her wish list? Give her suggestions for obtaining this, such as getting outside orders from anybody over the age of 18, men included. If it is for fun, what is her vision for a fun party? Who will you be inviting to your party? Friends, family, work friends? Tell me a little bit about your guests (age, relationship status, interests). This question helps to give you some insight into who will be attending. You can tailor the party to your guests to give them the party they want. Do you have any time constraints for the party? This may only apply to weekday parties or Hostesses with children, but it’s always nice to know. Would you be interested in holding a theme party? If you have something in mind, I would be glad to work with you or I’m happy to make some suggestions. Theme parties can add a new level to a party that the Hostess may really want. Fun facts about your Hostess! This is a great place to take notes of anything you want to remember about your Hostess. You can reference this information on future calls and at the party. 19 HOSTESS COACHING CALLS AND SCRIPTS HOSTESS COACHING TIPS The more time you invest in your Hostess prior to her party, the more successful it will be. Refer to your Hostess Party Prep Form to record the dates of each call as well as take notes so that you know exactly what your Hostess wants out of her party. Be sure to contact her at least three times prior to the party to make sure she has a full understanding of the event and her benefits as a Hostess. CALL #1 Within three days of mailing out your Hostess Packet you should make your first phone call. During this call confirm that the Hostess has received her Packet, answer any questions, and help build excitement for the party. Step 1: Warmly introduce yourself and ask if you have caught her at a good time. Step 2: Ask her to take out the packet you have mailed her so that you can review the materials and answer any questions. Step 3: Work through the Hostess Party Prep Form. Step 4: Help her create her guest list, encouraging her to invite twice as many guests, as she can generally expect about half to show up. Step 5: Review the Hostess and booking incentives, and encourage Outside Orders from those who can’t attend the party. Step 6: Ask her if she’d like to learn more about the business opportunities available. Step 7: Set a date for the next phone call. Step 8: Thank her! CALL #1 SCRIPT: Hello! May I please speak to [Hostess’ Name]? This is [Your Name] with Pure Romance. Is this a good time? Great! First off, I’m so excited about your upcoming party! It’s going to be a great night! I also wanted to make sure you received your Hostess packet in the mail. Great! Let’s take a couple minutes to go through everything in the packet. Do you have any questions? Answer each question before you proceed. I have just a couple questions for you, so I know exactly what you want from this party. Utilize the Hostess Party Prep Form and go through each question. Just as a reminder, as the Hostess you will receive 10% of the total party sales in FREE PRODUCT! (You can also talk about any booking specials or Hostess incentives here as well). So, the more people at your party, the more product you can earn! How are you coming on your guest list? One tip that I give to all of my Hostesses is to over-invite! Not everyone will be able to attend, but to ensure that you get at least 10 guests, go ahead and invite 20 people. You can also collect Outside Orders as well. These are orders placed by anyone that can’t attend your party. You can provide them with a catalog, order form, and envelope found in your Hostess packet and collect their order. Let them know that their order will be confidential, just as if they were at the party. Any Outside Orders you collect before your party will count towards the overall party total! How would you like to invite your guests to your party? There are a couple options and I’m happy to help in any way I can! If you want to use the invites in your Hostess Packet—all you need to do is fill them out, and I’d be happy to mail them out for you! Many of my Hostesses like to use electronic invites. If you use that method, what I would like to do is get your guest list and follow up with a mailed 20 invitation. You know how people like to get fun stuff in the mail, and I find that it can really help your party attendance. All right, so we will get working on the invitations and then you can start collecting any Outside Orders from people who can’t make it. I think we have a good start to planning a fantastic party! One more thing that I always ask my Hostess if they would be interested in learning more about the Pure Romance business opportunity. I think you would make a great Consultant and I’d be happy to provide you with some more information. I will follow up with you in a couple days. Is the phone the best way to reach you or do you prefer email? Phone, OK. How does Thursday or Friday work for you? What time works best for you; morning, afternoon, or evening? Ok, how about Thursday at 3 pm? Great! I will talk to you then. Have a great day! CALL #2 At least 7-10 days prior to the party, place your second call to the Hostess. During this call you should find out how many guests she’s expecting, answer any questions, and express your enthusiasm and excitement for her party. Step 1: Ask her how things are going and if she has any questions you could answer. Step 2: Ask her how many guests she’s expecting up to this point and if she needs more invitations. Step 3: Remind her of all the fun they are going to have and how excited she will be with her free products. Step 4: Set a date for the next phone call. Step 5: Thank her! CALL #2 SCRIPT: Hello! May I please speak to [Hostess’ Name]? This is [Your Name] with Pure Romance. How are you? Is this a good time? Great! Your party is getting closer, so I just wanted to check in! Still excited?! Great! I am too! So, just a couple things … invitations have gone out. Do you know how many guests you are expecting? That sounds great! Sounds like we have room for a couple more. Would you like any more invitations? Since there are a couple people that can’t make it to the party, I was thinking that if you can get at least two Outside Orders from them or anyone else, I will give you an additional discount on one item (or one of your Wish List items)! Do you have any questions I can answer for you? If yes, answer her questions before you proceed. Well, I’m really looking forward to your party. I will give you a call a day or two before your party to go over any last-minute details or questions. Are you available on Friday between 2 and 4 p.m. to chat? Great! I will talk to you then! Have a great day! 21 CALL #3 The third phone call should be made 24-48 hours prior to the party. At this time, you should get directions to the party and confirm the number of guests she’s expecting. Step 1: Tell her you’re looking forward to her party. Step 2: Ask her for specific directions to her home and let her know when you will be arriving. Step 3: Confirm the number of guests she is expecting and remind her that her guests can bring friends. Encourage her to make phone calls to remind guests. Step 4: Remind the Hostess that men or children cannot be present at the party (even infants). Women over 18 years of age only. Step 5: Show excitement. Step 6: Thank her! CALL #3 SCRIPT: Hello! May I please speak to [Hostess’ Name]? This is [Your Name] with Pure Romance. How are you? Is this a good time? Great! Are you getting excited for your party tomorrow? Fantastic! I have the directions to your house printed out. They look pretty easy. Any specifics I should know about finding your house? Is this the best number to reach you in case I become directionally challenged on the way there? Great! Do you have a final count on guests? That sounds great! If any of your guests would like to bring a friend, that is fine! If you have time, I would encourage you to call your guests to remind them of the party. One more reminder for you: Everyone in attendance must be a woman, over the age of 18. So, no men or children will be allowed. Any questions for me? I’m really excited for tomorrow! You’ve done a great job planning your party, and your guests are going to have a great time! See you tomorrow! SPOILING YOUR HOSTESS WHILE ON A BUDGET It’s all in how you present your incentive! Make whatever you give LOOK beautiful, and that will go a long way. You can even shop a clearance rack the day after Valentine’s Day for pink and black gift wrap that you can use all year. Save by using product earned from daily specials and the Free Product program. Take advantage of corporate sales and get items for free as Hostess gifts. Give your Hostess extra discounts that don’t exceed your Buying Discount! For instance, when she has a $500 show, give her an item at your discount, and when she reaches a $700 show, give her another item at your discount. These items cost you nothing, boost your Retail sales, and give her a great experience! Use her party sales as a basis for how much she earns! If her party is over $1,000, you can double her Hostess credit. It’s a great plus for her without being a huge hit to your profit. Use a Booking Box as an incentive for your Hostess. Place items in a nicely displayed box (free product, product earned from daily specials or items you’ve purchased in cases or on sale). Allow your Hostess to pick a gift of her choice in front of the rest of the party guests. You will find this this builds excitement and suspense. Mention the Booking Box during your opening speech as you thank your Hostess for the party. During your Closing Speech, present her with the box to choose her free gift. This will keep your expenses down, and your Hostess will love that they get to choose! 22 WHAT TO GIVE YOUR HOSTESS It’s OK to give a standard gift to each Hostess or to give her the option to pick from a variety of items. Choose what works best for you. We don’t recommend using an item for a gift that is worth more than $25 Retail. Utilize items that come in six-packs, items on sale, or even items you’ve earned through Free Product for Hostess gifts. That way, you can give away some higher-end products without breaking the bank! Some great gift ideas are: Basic Instinct Bosom Buddy Coochy Hot Heart Massager Kiss and Tell Silver Bullet Notes: ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 23 LIVE PARTY OBSERVATIONS WORKSHEET ACTIVITY Shadowing a party is one of the best ways to learn how to develop your party experience!

Below are a few tips to make that connection even easier! Building Rapport You can build rapport as you wait for the guests to arrive by listening to the women talk. Ask questions that encourage them to talk about themselves, such as: “What are your plans for the upcoming holiday? “ “Tell me about your family?” “What kind of work do you do?” “What’s your favorite part about your job?” Share your story at every party and play an icebreaker game. During the Hostess Coaching process, use the Hostess Party Prep form to take notes about your Hostess. Then you can refer back to them in future conversations. If she talks about her family, a pet, or a hobby or activity, be sure to mention it the next time you talk to her. The more you can find out during the Hostess Coaching process, the better. Ask who she is inviting (friends, co-workers, family, etc.) and take note of any stories she shares about them. Then, while setting up, you can listen to the conversations going on and bring up anything the Hostess might have mentioned that makes sense in the conversation. Listen to the party guests as much as possible. If you are talking about something, it should be about them! Remembering Names Put a sticky note on the front of your personal catalog to use as a guide during your demonstration. Write the guests’ names on the sticky note in the order that they are sitting when they introduce themselves. Then, during your demonstration you can easily refer to each guest by name. Arrive early and introduce yourself to as many guests as possible. Repeat each name right away when they say it by saying something like “Katie, I’m glad you could come out tonight! Is this your first Pure Romance party?” When the guests say their names during the party, find a way to address them during the demonstration. By the time you get to the Shopping Room, you will have a better handle on most, if not all, of the names. Play an icebreaker game that asks your guests to introduce themselves in a way that helps you remember their names. Ask them to provide a fun or sexy adjective that will describe themselves, such as Erotic Emily or Sensual Susan and as they finish sharing, repeat their name by saying, “Thank you, Erotic Emily, for sharing!” Have your guests wear nametags. They can even be fun, laminated nametags you can use again and again by having guests write on them with a dry-erase marker. 28 CREATING YOUR OPENING SPEECH WHAT TO COVER When preparing your opening speech, make sure you cover the below points each time! Even if you have repeat party guests, this information is important to cover at each and every party. The Formula: Introduction, Welcome and Thanking the Hostess Your Story What to Expect from the Party Review Party Process Handout of Materials Shopping Room Products and Backorders Forms of Payment CREATING YOUR OPENING SPEECH SAMPLE SCRIPT After attending my first party, I was hooked! What impressed me most was [insert why you joined Pure Romance] I am well on my way to feeling truly successful, which will be when [insert what point you will feel successful and how your life will be different]. As we go through the demonstration, if you think what I’m doing looks fun and you’d like to know how much money I make, see me in the Shopping Room and I will provide some information about the business opportunity to take home with you tonight. If you are looking to make extra cash, have fun, and have control over your schedule, Pure Romance might be a perfect fit for you. I would like to thank [insert Hostess name] for inviting us into her home. Can I see a quick show of hands of how many of you have been to a Pure Romance party before? For having the party today, [insert Hostess name] will be receiving a percentage of the total sales of the party in free product of her choice—anything she would like! So when you come into that Shopping Room, order well! If you are interested in hosting a Pure Romance party of your own, let me know and we can set up a date that’s convenient for you. Here is the fun part—tonight you will get to taste our kissable products and smell our scented products. Let’s make your left hand your “licker” and your right hand your “sniffer.” Remember, it’s OK to sniff your “licker,” but you don’t want to lick your “sniffer”! Our party is divided into two segments. The first part of the party consists of our massage and bath products, lubricants, enhancement creams, games, books, and some novelties. The second portion of the party is dedicated to the bedroom accessories. For your privacy, I will be setting up a separate ordering area that is [describe the area that the Hostess designated]. This will allow you to come in one at a time and select the items that you would like to take home, as well as ask any questions you may have. You can pay by cash, check (made payable to me) or major credit card, and we will take care of that in the personal Shopping Room. I have catalogs and order forms for each of you, so let’s open them up. Please know that your catalogs are yours to take home. I encourage you to circle and star anything in the book that you want to take home with you. 29 On the Order Form, I just need you to fill out your name, address, and telephone number on the top of the form. Much of what you order tonight is going home with you. However, if there happens to be an item I don’t seem to have, the product will be sent directly to you in about seven to 10 business days. Your Hostess will never know what it is that you ordered, and it will arrive in very discreet packaging. Take a minute to fill out the Order Form and that’s all the paperwork you’re going to have to do this evening. OK, let’s get started! EFFECTIVE PARTY GAMES Playing games with purpose can help you effectively read your crowd or build your business. Below are some examples of effective party games you can integrate into your party demonstration. THE CELEBRITY GAME (Icebreaker) The CELEBRITY GAME is a fun and easy icebreaker game that will help get your audience warmed up and get ready to experience a fun night! You can play this game before or after your Opening Speech. MATERIALS NEEDED: Paper Pen DIRECTIONS: Make sure everyone has a piece of paper and a pen. If they already have their order forms and catalogs, you can have them turn them over and write on the back. Tell them to number their page from 1 to 6. Number 1: Write down your name Number 2: Write down how you know the Hostess (fact or fiction!) Number 3: Write down the name of the first male celebrity that pops into your head. Number 4: Write down a body part Number 5: Write down another body part Number 6: Write down your favorite phrase or saying Now, use this script as a guide to get your guests to tell a story. Go around the room and do this little story for everyone. “Ladies, I just won a great trip to the Bahamas (or use the current Incentive Trip location for a plug) and I want to take you and a guest with me! So now, I‘m going to go around the room and get your name…let’s start with you! So, your name is ____#1________ and how do you know the hostess? ______#2________ So, who are you going to take as your guest for the Bahamas getaway? ______#3__________. When you put your _____#4_______ on his ______#5________, he says ____________#6_____________!” THE LEI GAME (Party Booking Game) The LEI GAME is a fun and easy way to help you get party bookings from your party! MATERIALS NEEDED: 4 Hawaiian leis 4 small Pure Romance gifts or coupons, wrapped nicely DIRECTIONS: The LEI GAME should be introduced to your guests at the beginning of the party. You can start it after your opening speech and before you start your party demonstration. 30 Call up your Hostess and tell your guests that you have a great game that everyone can play! Put four Hawaiian leis around your Hostess’ neck. Let the guests know that at any point during the night, if they decide they want to host their own Pure Romance party that they can yell out, “I want to get lei’d!” When they do this, the Hostess will take a Hawaiian Lei from around her neck and give it to the person that just yelled out. Everyone that decides they “want to get lei’d” also gets a small Pure Romance gift or coupon that can be used at their own party. This is a great way to keep track of everyone that is interested in hosting her own party. While you should be asking everyone who walks into your Shopping Room if they want to book a party, this game helps point out exactly who is interested, since they will have a Hawaiian lei around their neck. STEALING HEARTS (Business Opportunity Game) MATERIALS NEEDED: Deck of cards or Date Night cards numbered 1-13 3-4 small gifts, wrapped If using a deck of cards, remove all of the heart cards and diamond cards from the deck and put them in two separate piles. To begin playing the game, tell everyone: “What better way to a woman’s heart than with diamonds?” Explain that for every question they ask about your business, they will receive a heart card. They can keep asking questions until all 13 cards are given away. The more questions they ask, the more chances they have of winning a prize that you select for them. Examples of questions they might ask: 1. How did you get started? 2. How long have you been with Pure Romance? 3. How much money are you able to make? 4. How do you book parties? 5. Do you attend meetings or trainings to help with your business? If using a deck of cards, shuffle the diamond cards and pick out a card. Flip over the first card, the individual that has the heart card that matches the diamond card you have just drawn gets to choose a gift from one of three you offered. If using the Date Night game, simply go in numerical order. The woman who goes next gets to either choose a gift from the remaining two, or “steal” the gift from the gal who took the first gift. The third woman gets to chose either the remaining gift or steal one of the gifts that have already been chosen. With each card drawn, the stealing continues until the last card is drawn. Whoever has the gifts at the end gets to keep the gifts! This is a wonderfully fun way to break the ice, get women laughing and enjoying themselves, and plant business opportunity seeds! 31 SELLING TO THE CATEGORY Fill in the Blanks What motivates your customers to purchase products?

If you do decide to discount, it shouldn’t break the bank. Creating simple and effective discounts can help you boost sales and make a great profit, but isn’t a necessity of running a successful business! Discounting can be used on two very common types of customers that you will encounter during parties. Customer #1: She says she doesn’t have a lot of money to spend. For this customer, if you pair another product that works well with her selection and then offer a small discount, she will be more inclined to purchase that extra item. Don’t forget, you can always offer her the opportunity of hosting her own Pure Romance party for the ultimate discount. Customer #2: She has about $75 worth of product on her Order Form. If she is willing to spend $75, you can probably get her up to $100. Offer her a discount of one item at 35% off that may motivate her to purchase one more product and hit $100. The higher your average per-customer sales, the higher your overall Retail sales will be. When you create your discounts, remember these key points: Keep it simple Utilize six-packs or cases Pick no more than one to two discounts, if any, to promote during your parties Here are some great examples of discounts you can offer: 1. Coochy & Body Dew for $28 Discount of $5 (only costs you $2.75 at a 45% buying discount or $3.25 at 35% discount) 2. Buy an Everyday Lubricant and get Whipped 50% off Utilize Whipped because it comes in a six-pack. Use 50% or your own buying discount. 3. Hot Heart Massager & Serenity for $49 Discount of $5 (only costs you $2.75 at a 45% buying discount or $3.25 at 35% discount) 4. Two Hot Heart Massagers for $25 Discount of $5 (only costs you $2.75 at a 45% buying discount or $3.25 at 35% discount) 36 YOUR CLOSING SPEECH WHAT TO COVER Your Closing Speech may vary as you get more and more comfortable with your party demonstration.

Your Customer Connection Cards can then become a great tool in making your Big MACs (Morning After Calls). 38 YOUR CLOSING SPEECH SAMPLE SCRIPT This script can help you create an effective closing speech. Make sure to cover the business details, such as explaining the shipping and handling fees that each customer is asked to pay with their order, as well as collecting their Customer Connection Cards. EXAMPLE CLOSING SPEECH First, I want to thank our Hostess, ________________. Thank you so much for inviting me into your home for such a great night with your girlfriends! I’ll be collecting the Customer Connection Cards now, so fill yours out if you haven’t already. These cards help me understand what questions you might have so I can better serve you in the Shopping Room. Remember, if you pay today, you play today! On your order form, you will see a $6 shipping and handling fee that I pay UPS to have the product ready for you tonight. You will pay the same charge for shipping and handling no matter what you purchase tonight. The sales tax is _______. I accept cash, check, Visa, and Discover. If you are paying by check, please make it out to me—my name is on the back of your Customer Connection Card and on my business card. When you come into the private Shopping Room, please come one at a time. This ensures that you have a safe and confidential place to order and ask questions Thank you! 39 THE PRIVATE SHOPPING ROOM Make sure to bring all of your items into the private Shopping Room, for easier reference. This includes all of your product demos, ordering supplies and items from your pre-party checklist. BUILDING RAPPORT IN THE SHOPPING ROOM Create a space in the Shopping Room that makes it easy for you to pay attention to how your customer is sitting. Set up the space so it is easy for you to maintain eye contact. Set up your inventory behind or beside you so that it isn’t in the way of you or your customer. You want to be close enough that you can stay face-to-face. Set up the space before you start your party and make sure to have two chairs in the Shopping Room, even if you don’t always use them. You can even stand to greet your next customer, and wherever they sit, you sit! Sometimes it will be on the chair; sometimes it is on the floor. Let them take the lead! Matching and Mirroring: To effectively match your customer, pay close attention to how they are sitting and try to adjust the way you are sitting so that you are matching the way they are sitting. To effectively mirror your customer, adjust your positioning so that it is like your customer is looking into a mirror as they are speaking with you. Making these adjustments smoothly and carefully will help you develop rapport with your customer more effectively. Once your guest is settled, make sure to adjust your posture and positioning so you are in rapport with her. Ask a few yes/no questions to get the conversation going, such as “Did you have fun tonight,” “Did you find items you are excited to take home tonight,” etc. Practice, practice, practice! The more you practice matching and mirroring, the more of a habit the techniques will become. Before you know it, you will find yourself making natural adjustments to match their gestures and positing. INVENTORY VS. NO INVENTORY New Consultants who have experience with other in-home party companies sometimes ask why Pure Romance recommends carrying inventory. While you don’t have to carry inventory to start off on the right track, most Consultants find over time that carrying inventory makes them more successful. There are a few reasons for this: Women are impulse buyers. They’re much more likely to purchase something they can take home with them that night. Customers will appreciate being able to receive product from you with no wait. They’ll have a better experience and be more likely to recommend you to their friends! When you carry inventory, you won’t have as many backorders. This means you can control your ordering to take advantage of special discounts and sales, and you’ll begin to save on shipping. Eventually, the $6 shipping and handling fee you collect from each guest will become extra money in your pocket! You don’t have to spend all your money on inventory right away; just build it gradually. Whenever you can, add extra product to your Consultant order. If you need four of something, get a six-pack if it’s available—it’s clearly a hot seller for you, and you’ll receive an extra discount for buying in bulk. Every Consultant is different, but we recommend carrying 2 to 2.5 parties’ worth of product, so you have flexibility in ordering. This usually means about $2,000 in stock. The profit from just a few parties can help you meet this goal! 40 ORGANIZING YOUR INVENTORY Use the following images as a guideline for a simple, yet organized way to prepare your inventory for the Shopping Room. You can store your items in plastic bins or even tool cases, like shown below. 41 THE PRIVATE SHOPPING ROOM To ensure a successful Shopping Room experience, you need to be able to adjust the conversations to meet each individual customer’s unique needs. Let’s practice! SHOPPING ROOM SCENARIOS HOMEWORK Fill in the blanks below to help each customer get exactly the experience they are looking for at your Pure Romance party.

There is one aspect of your Pure Romance business that can make or break your reputation and that is how well you fill orders, handle payments and follow up with your customers. As a Pure Romance Consultant, you are going to meet many people and hopefully process many orders! A misstep when fulfilling an order doesn’t just damage your relationship with your customer, it can damage your business for weeks or months to come. Remember, the parties of today are going to introduce you to the Hostesses of tomorrow. For this reason, it’s important that each and every guest feels positive about her party experience. BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE SHOPPING ROOM Processing your customer’s credit cards can be done in three easy steps! Before you leave the Shopping Room: 1. VERIFY (Make sure their billing address is the same as their shipping address). 2. AUTHORIZE (Call to authorize the transaction and write down the authorization code). Once you get home: 3. SUBMIT (You’re not finished yet! Make sure to go home and complete the credit card entry online to transfer the payment)! Make sure you don’t leave the Shopping Room without gathering these very important details! PROCESSING PAYMENTS AND PLACING ORDERS Since you are running your own business, you can decide what forms of payment you are willing to accept. Most Consultants accept cash, checks, MasterCard, Visa, American Express, and Discover. To process your credit card payments, you have a few options to collect your fees. You can process your payments through the corporate office, or you can look to an outside company, like ProPay or Credit Service International. Either way you go, there is a small fee to process payments. In the beginning, most Consultants find it easiest for the corporate office to process their payments. As your volume increases, it may make sense for you to seek the help of an outside firm. Fees will vary from company to company, so ask around and see what other Consultants in your area are using. Here is how you process payments through the corporate office: Fill in the complete credit card information for your customer on the bottom of the order form. We give you a section as kind of a cheat sheet for all the information you are going to need to complete the transaction. Be very careful to write down the entire credit card number, expiration date and CVV Code (sometimes also called the Security Code). For MasterCard, Visa and Discover, the CVV is the 3-digit code on the back. For American Express it’s the 4-digit code on the front of the card. Next, when you are in the Shopping Room with your customer and she gives you a credit card, you will need to call for an authorization number. Remember, you are a business owner and shouldn’t be afraid to authorize the payment before she walks away with your product. All stores authorize your credit card payments before you actually leave the store with their products—this is the same thing. For Visa, MasterCard and Discover call: 800-741-5682. When you are asked for a Merchant ID #, enter: 71000005571 For American Express call: 800-528-2121. When you are asked for a Merchant ID #, enter: 3340559004 44 If the card was successfully authorized, you will receive an authorization code. Make sure you record the code on the order form—you will need it later. You will also need the customer’s billing address. This is the same address that the statement for the credit card is mailed to. The biggest mistakes Consultants make are: not getting all of the credit card information needed to process the payment writing information down incorrectly not getting an authorization code not writing down the CVV code not getting the correct billing address You can’t just assume that the address she writes on the top of her order form is the same as her billing address, so you always need to ask. Either that evening or the very next day, you need to visit the Consultant Online Office and enter the credit card information. At this point you have only pre-authorized the credit card. No money has actually changed hands. The authorization code you received is good for 30 days, but it’s a good habit to enter it as soon as possible. You have two options for entering credit card information with the corporate office. Both are located under the Orders tab in the consultant Online Office. One method is QUICK CREDIT CARD ENTRY. This is an area that allows you to enter JUST the credit card information and any notes you have about the customer or her order. You will enter the cardholder’s name, address, card type, CC #, expiration date, CVV code, the authorization number and the exact amount of the sale. The biggest mistake you can make is to enter the wrong information in this section, so be careful! Recheck your work before you hit the SUBMIT button, especially when you are entering the amount the customer owes. The other method for processing credit card payments is CREDIT CARD ENTRY. The first thing you will see when you choose this option is a list of calendars on the left and a list of events on the right. It does take a few minutes longer to enter the information this way, but you will be creating a database of customer information that can be very useful in the future. In addition to the customer’s name, contact information, and credit card payment information, you will also enter all of the items she purchased so you have a complete summary at your fingertips of everything that was ordered. Keep in mind that when you enter items purchased, you are not ordering product from the company—you are simply creating a database for future use. Whether you decide to use the Quick Credit Card Entry or the full version, remember that these systems are an EITHER / OR decision. You don’t want to use both. Once you hit that SUBMIT button, the customer’s card will be charged and the amount owed to you (minus a 5% processing fee) will be applied to your Credit on File account. The funds are transferred almost instantaneously. Every Consultant has a Credit on File account. This is the account we use to add any credit card amounts owed to you or any other adjustments that may be credited to you. Credits on File can be used to purchase products. When you place an order with the corporate office, you can choose to apply your credits on file to that order. The nice thing about our ordering system is that when you get to the payment options, you will be shown how many Credits on File you have currently available so that you always know what you have at your disposal to use. If you are using an outside company, they will normally take the money that is owed to you and have 45 the funds deposited in a separate account of your choice so you can decide how you want to use that money. For some Consultants, that’s a benefit. Other Consultants know that they are going to be processing orders with the corporate office on a regular basis, so the Credit on File system works really well for them. The choice is yours. FULFILLING ORDERS AND FOLLOWING UP To place an order with Pure Romance, you must first log into the Consultant Online Office. Select the ORDERS tab, where you can then view items to purchase by category. You can save your order at any time, that way you can come back and add more. Those items will remain there until you place your order. This is perfect if you have several parties over the weekend because it allows you to place one large order and save on shipping! Make sure to pay attention to your order times. If you are trying to reach the minimums for a particular sale, make sure that you have the order in before 11:59 p.m. Eastern the day the sale is ending. Your free product or sale details will appear on your order page. Once your order has been submitted, it will typically be shipped the next business day. For example, an order placed at 8 p.m. Tuesday will process and ship on Wednesday. Pure Romance uses UPS as our shipping carrier. You can refer to the estimated UPS shipping times on the Consultant Online Office or the UPS website. You will receive an invoice in every shipment from Pure Romance. It is important to check the backorder information if something is missing from your package. It’s imperative to treat each customer order like it’s the most important order you’ve ever had. Some orders will be completely fulfilled at the party. For guests that order backordered items, whether from you or the corporate office, your first priority is to fill those orders in a timely manner. Customer backorders should be filled in 7-10 days. Customer Backorders A customer backorder is created when a customer purchases product directly from you and you do not have the item in stock. For example, let’s say a customer comes into the Shopping Room to place an order and requests B.O.B., but you don’t have it in stock. That is when you create a customer backorder. When you have to generate a customer backorder, be sure to write the product name in the backorder section of the order form. It’s right below what she owes for her order total. As good practice, you can also circle it so you know that it needs to be ordered. This is also a great way to make sure that you don’t forget to order an item. Now that the item is noted, you need to let your customer know that you will send the product directly to her in discreet packaging within 7 to 10 business days. You should always strive to have any backorders arrive a bit early. Either that night or the day after the party, review all order forms and pull out any that contain customer backorders. You will need to order product in a timely manner so that you can deliver it as promised. Corporate Backorder When you place an order with the corporate office and it is not available at the time, a Corporate Backorder is created. When the product becomes available again, our system will automatically include Corporate Backordered items in the next order you place. If you are not planning on placing an order in the near future, but you or a customer needs the item sent now, you can choose to EXPEDITE your backorder for a minimal fee. You can do this on the Consultant Online Office under the Orders Tab/ Backorders / Click to Expedite Backorders. 46 What do you do if a customer orders an item on Corporate Backorder? You contact the customer and let them know that the item she ordered is so popular it’s temporarily out of stock! Ask her if she minds waiting a little bit longer to receive the item. Most customers don’t mind waiting as long as you keep them informed. Staying in contact shows them that you care and that you’re willing to follow through and deliver product as promised. Typically, when the corporate office has to backorder an item, stock is replenished quickly. So in the event of a Corporate Backorder, you are not going to have to wait a long time. Should an item be delayed longer then normal, the corporate office will send an email notification or include the information in the weekly updates. It’s important that you check your updates to stay on top of product information. If your customer decides she does not want to wait any longer, offer her the opportunity to select something else from your inventory that you do have in stock. Frequently, due to the variety within our product line, you can offer her a product similar to her original selection. If she is not willing to wait at all and all attempts were made to find her an alternate product, then you may have to offer her a refund. Our order forms do say NO REFUNDS, but it may be in your best interest to make an exception for these customers because you were not able to deliver their product in time. Isn’t it better to keep her happy and keep a customer for life than to worry about giving out just one refund? Following Up There are little things that you can do as a business owner to really make your customers feel special. By making the effort to take that little extra step, you’ll find that it can pay off big in the long run for your business. After a party, a follow up call to each guest is a great way to extend great customer service. We call them Big MACs—Big Morning After Calls. Big MACs are the ultimate in great customer service, and they are an amazing business builder. Big MACs do not have to be made the next morning, but remember that in general, the sooner you contact the guests, the better the results you will have. The morning after the party is ideal because the party experience is still fresh in the guests’ minds and in yours as well. Big MAC Example “Hello Peggy, this is Jennifer, the Consultant from last night’s Pure Romance party. I just wanted to follow up with you to thank you for coming to the party. I am also calling because I have found that many women take home their products and find they have additional questions before they use them and I wanted to check in. What questions do you have about the products you ordered? I was also thinking about your energy and how much fun you seemed to have at the party. I really think you would make a great Consultant. I would love to meet you for coffee so I could tell you a little bit more about the opportunity!” Did you see how easy this approach was? If she says she will get together with you, just give her a variety of dates when you can meet. If, at the time, she is not interested in hosting a party or joining the Pure Romance team, that is fine. Your next step should be to simply stay in touch with her. Put her on your email blast so she knows about your specials for each month. Note what she purchased and follow up in a couple of weeks to see if she needs to reorder any of the consumable products she purchased—like Coochy, Kiss or Body Dew. As a valued customer, you could even give her a discount on any re-order. 47 The fact that you follow up with her weeks after the party and offer a special, even though she hasn’t booked a party, will make her feel special. You’re thinking of her, and sometimes that’s all it takes to make a customer for life! Whether it’s a backorder, a Big MAC, or staying in touch, it’s been proven … the fortune is in the follow-up!

Some Consultants begin sponsoring from day one, while others may choose to wait so that they can get their feet wet in the business. Sometimes, you have a new team member before you ever expected to have one! Building and cultivating a team is an exciting component of your business, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming! Below is an overview of the various components to sharing the opportunity. Yes, it really can be this simple! Your Story Sharing your story is a very important part of sharing the opportunity. During the opening speech at your party, you are connecting with your guests by sharing how Pure Romance has changed your life. This is the beginning of connecting with a potential Consultant as they relate to your life-changing experiences with Pure Romance. Make sure you tell your story at each party, whether they are repeat guests or not! You never know who is going to connect with the reasons you decided to give Pure Romance a try! Customer Connection Card Filling and collecting the Customer Connection Cards should become as common at your parties as your Just Like Me or Come Clean demonstrations! On this card, you are asking your customers to rate on a scale from 1-10 their level of interest in learning more about the Pure Romance opportunity. You will know exactly where each potential Consultant stands. All you have to do is ASK! Even if someone gives a low rating, you can still ask the question, “What would it take to get you to a 10?” to find out what is standing in her way. Isn’t it easier to help address her concern once you know what it is? Your Customer Connection Card even has a field for referrals! Encourage guests to fill out the section that asks them if they know of someone who would make a great Pure Romance Consultant. They may even write their own name! Make sure that during each party you take the time to observe and listen to your partygoers. With your observations and their feedback on the Customer Connection Cards, you will have all you need to ask for the opportunity! Planting Seeds During the Party At your parties, you have a captive audience of potential Consultants. They have come to the party because they are interested in the products, and it’s always possible that they may be interested in more. If you aren’t planting seeds, or subtle suggestions about the Pure Romance opportunity during the party you are missing out on an easy, yet effective aspect of sharing the opportunity! Here are a couple quick tips on how to plant seeds during your parties: Did you know telling your story is planting a seed? Keep it short, no more than a couple of minutes in length… remember, simple and relatable. Include why you joined Pure Romance and the benefits that you are gaining by building your own business. Make your role look fun and easy. As you work through your demonstrations, you want everyone to think, “I can do this!” 52 During your demonstrations, you can say fun things like, “Do you believe I get paid to have this much fun?”, or “They never paid me to meet new people and have fun at my old job!”, or “I make my own schedule so I can work as much as I like!” Play games. The Stealing Hearts Game rewards guests for asking questions about your Pure Romance business. End your demonstration by saying, “As you can see, our products are a great value. An even better value is our Hostess program, where you can earn products for FREE. But the best value I have to offer you tonight is the gift of opportunity … the opportunity to become a Pure Romance Consultant.” In the Shopping Room, use your Customer Connection Card and ask everyone if they would be interested in learning more about becoming a Consultant. Planting seeds is an easy, non-pushy way to let people know how much fun your job is, what Pure Romance has done for you, how its changed your life, and why you love your job. These things will spark interest and questions from the women at your parties and will also put you one step closer to owning the business you deserve! Asking in the Shopping Room As each woman comes into the private Shopping Room, you should be ready to have a conversation with her about the opportunity. Before you even have a potential Consultant, you should be prepared to meet one. A great way to make sure you’re always prepared is to always have packets of information about the opportunity ready to go and on hand! We recommend you use the Pure Romance folders for your Sponsorship Packets. They are black with the pink heart logo on the front. They are available for purchase in the Business Supplies section of your Consultant Online Office. In each folder you should include the following: your story, a Sponsorship Brochure, a kit flyer, and a business card. That’s it! There’s no need to overload her with information at this point. You can answer all of her questions during your initial Opportunity Meeting! Once your guests come into the Shopping Room, make sure that you connect with each customer during that one-on-one time. After you go through her order, take out her Customer Connection Card and mention her level of interest in the opportunity. This is also a great time to mention that you noticed how attentive she was during the party or how much she seemed to know about the products—be sure to mention whatever it was that caught your attention about the customer that made you think she would be a good addition to your team. Then ask her if Pure Romance is something she would like to learn more about. It’s that easy! All you have to do is ASK! Following Up What do you do if you try to contact her and she doesn’t respond? Follow this simple system and it will take the guesswork out of “what’s next”! For ONE month: 1st Call: If she doesn’t answer, leave a voicemail. 2nd Call: Call again within five business days. If she doesn’t answer, leave another voicemail. 3rd Call: Call again within five business days. If she doesn’t answer, send a text immediately after you call her. 4th Call: Call again within five business days. If she doesn’t answer, leave another voicemail. 5th Call: Call again within five business days. If she doesn’t answer, leave a final voicemail. Then, once per month: Call, email, text, send a postcard, or send your newsletter of flyer. Once a quarter: Call and leave a voicemail. 53 IF YOU TALK TO HER AND SHE SAYS NO “I can appreciate that. Are you open to joining my email list in which I update my customers with specials and opportunities?” If she says no, delete her number. If she says yes, follow through. STEPS FOR SPONSORSHIP Sponsoring another individual into the business uses the same skills as booking a party. Have a conversation and show her how Pure Romance can meet her needs. What to Say on Your Opportunity Call “Hi NAME! This is YOUR NAME with Pure Romance. I remember you from the party and you seemed like you really had a great time! What did you like best about the party? Pure Romance is such an exciting opportunity—I mean, you saw how much fun I was having, right? Even more than having a blast, it’s really about building wealth and owning and operating your own business to support yourself or your family. I can make anywhere from an extra $500 to $1,000 a month—can you imagine making that much extra money per month? What would you do with an extra $1,000? Are you open to making extra money?” Questions to Ask if She Needs More Information “What is it that interests you most about Pure Romance?” Modify the question to fit a particular circumstance. For example: “What did you like most about the party?” or, “Why do you think your friends feel you’ll make a great Consultant?” “Is there anything standing in your way of giving Pure Romance a try?” “You mentioned you’d love to earn $500 or $1000 a month. When would you like to start earning that money?” Stay on this question until you’ve addressed any objections or concerns she may have. Setting the Appointment Once your potential team member lets you know she is interested in receiving more information about the opportunity, it’s time to set the appointment! Give her the information you have prepared and let her know it contains some basic information about the business opportunity that you would like her to review. Remind her that this information is designed to create questions, which you will be more than happy to answer during the Opportunity Meeting. Then, set an appointment to talk or meet in a couple days to answer any questions she may have and see if she would be a good fit for your team. Once the appointment has been set, write the details on her folder so she has the information in one easy to locate place. Then, make sure to mark it in your calendar so you don’t forget to follow up! The Opportunity Meeting Now it’s time to prepare for the face-to-face meeting, otherwise known as the Opportunity Meeting. You will need to ask some basic questions in order to see where she is coming from and to gauge her level of interest. Each question is designed to teach you something about your potential team member so that you can both decide if Pure Romance will be a good fit for her. We suggest asking the three questions below: Question #1: What was it that first interested you in Pure Romance? This question seems so simple, yet it cuts to the heart of her motivation in pursuing the business opportunity and gives you the key to her interest. By asking this question, you are asking your potential recruit to explain her why. By uncovering her ultimate why, you can help keep her focused on her main motivation as she begins her business, giving you a strong candidate who is likely to stay Active as she reaches for her goals. 54 You may need to ask some follow-up questions to help your Team Member understand her why. If she says that the money is what interests her, then follow up with questions to acquire more specifics, such as what her financial needs are or why Pure Romance stands out to her over other careers. This will help you and her realize what her ultimate goal is—whether it’s a vacation for her family or to provide for her child’s education. Or maybe she just loved how much fun you had with the party and the guests and has decided that she wants to make women happy as well! Whatever the case, uncovering her why will make you more likely to be a better sponsor and develop a quality Team Member. Question #2: Is there anything standing in the way of you giving Pure Romance a try? This may sound strange, but you should invite objections! By having your potential Team Member voice her concerns up front, you can work with her to create a solution. Almost any objection can be responded to with, “If I could show you a way to overcome this issue, would you be interested in hearing more?” If she says yes, you can continue with the conversation. Don’t worry about solving her problem or issue right away; you can work on it later. Remember, this is still a preliminary interview. If she says no, then she has decided that Pure Romance isn’t right for her at this time. Let her know you will be available if she changes her mind, and follow up with her periodically. Question #3: When would you like to get paid? What a question to end the interview! This question lets the potential Consultant know that she is in the driver’s seat and that she controls how much money she will make and when she’ll make it! It’s also a very hard question for people to answer negatively. Most people like instant gratification, so by telling her that she can get paid right away, the night of her first party, you could be helping her make the decision. Why wouldn’t anyone want to get paid for their efforts right away, instead of at the end of the week or month? Asking these three questions to any potential team member will help her define her motivations and alert you to any areas where she may need reassurance and coaching. By listening and working through any objections and reminding her that this business is all about being in control of your life, you will hopefully have a new and excited team member! Help her pick a Starter Kit that fits an investment that is most comfortable for her. Be sure to discuss how quickly she will earn back this investment when she books and holds parties. 55 ACCOUNTABILITY FORM We want you to get the most out of your Pure Romance experience!
