What is coaching: Definition and 138 Discussions

This woman has money coming out of her pores and a kitchen full of gadgets, so she doesn't care about the host benenfits. At the show she booked form, she spent $200 on just her order. She just wants people to come over and have a good time. She told me that her family will just come for...

I am in SS1 and have four catalog shows going on: my sister, my mother-in-law-to-be (who doesn't know that she is ;)), and two of my best friends from college. All but the MIL live out of town. My sister has pretty much told me she's blowing it off until she graduates in May, at which point...

Does anyone have a timeline that works for them in terms of host coaching? I am looking for a timeline of when to make initial contact with a prospective host, the time the nail down a date, get a recipe selection, a head count of their guests, etc. up until the show date. How many weeks/days...

I have been working on my host coaching but I am finding it is hard to get hosts to aim. I am still new and have had a few hosts really go for outside orders to get the items they want for free but this month all my shows have been around $300. I remember seeing a tic-tac-toe style of paper on...

....who happens to be my SIL! :rolleyes: She has a party in a little over a week...and i gave her clear letter stating how much follow up and pinning people down on whether or not they will come...will often help boost the shows sales. Just not sure she is going to 'get it' and do...

Okay. I am faced with an issue that I am hoping that those of you in the military can help me with. I have finally "diagnosed" the issue I am having with shows on base. I know that my hosts are inviting non-military affiliated guests, and they are making telephone calls, etc. The night of...

I just signed #2... WOOOHOOOO I am FD.... YAHOOOO Ok... I have not had a recruit since my first year... and this is my goal this year to become director.... My baby is 1 now (2 weeks) so i can hit PC harder now... My recruit is young... 20 married and has a 1 year old. I need...

Ok, I have only had three parties so far, but my track record has been great! I am here to put a big plug in for host coaching. My first party was easy to coach because I saw the host every day at my son's school. She had 17 people at her party and 11 outside orders!!! My second...

I have someone who is interested in doing PC and I'm excited because this will be my first recruit and it's my SS #1! Any advice on good recruit coaching or tips?

I'm revamping my business right now. I'm curious how calls everyone makes to their hosts, and when you make those calls (1st call 3 weeks before) I myself make 3 calls to my hosts. Thanks.

I have been searching and searching and serching for scripts for some time now (since April actually). I get extremely nervous when it comes to picking up the phone and making calls, even when it comes to doing my Host Coaching Calls! Effective Host Coaching is essential to having a...

Well, for those who read about my Saturday show with 30 guests attending, here's the outcome!!!! I was there from 9:30a.m. - 5p.m. Yes!! I didn't type that incorrectly!!! There were 25+ people there! We closed the show THAT day! I had 3 past hosts in attendance & got several bookings...

I have a show tonight, and last night my host and I talked on the phone and I entered in her outside orders in Pampered Partner....she had $563 in outside orders already! She is expecting at least 8 people tonight and there are more people at her work that said if they can't make it, they...

How does one go about host coaching for a catalog show - is it pretty much the same as a live show? I did use the flyer re: catalog shows which I got on this site, but not sure where to go from there. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks!

I am starting my first month in July, and I just coached my first host. I was explaining everything to her and she ask me what benefit she gets for bookings. I could not find the info anywhere I was so embarrased. Is there a benefit? If there is not how do you get your hostess to get bookings...

If you use host postcards such as 1. A Successful Show Checklist 2. Reminder of Show 3. Web Ideas for the Host 4. Show is 3 days away for a Catalog Show Host, does anyone still make the phone calls or do you consider this host coaching? I'm a newbie trying to figure things out.

I have a couple bridal showers this month, and I was wondering how everyone host coaches for them. Do you do all the normal things? The post cards I usually send out don't really seem to fit a bridal shower. Please post how you host coach for bridal showers. Thanks! :o

Talk team. Use words such as partner and use we instead of I when appropriate. “You fill your house and I’ll fill your kitchen.” Ask ”Would you like me to help you have a successful show?” Have a big show attitude.
