Your Guide to a GREAT Party! The following is a bunch of handy info for you to refer to as you are planning, inviting, and preparing for your party. However, I'm just a quick message, text, phone call or email away, so please contact me if you have any questions.
What is a Facebook Party? A Facebook party is a virtual party, not just an event with a link. We have a specific time and date (just like an in person party), you'll invite your friends to  join us on that Facebook event where there will be some games, informational posts, some videos that will highlight some of our most popular books and then I will provide a shopping experience.
No cleaning or cooking necessary and it takes less than an hour!
Jessica's Jammin' Usborne Books & More Party!
When:
Thursday, February 15th, 8:30 PM (Central) Our Facebook event
Where: EShow for Online Ordering: How: https://x2331.myubam.com/919262 All guests will order online and their books will ship directly to them.
February Specials Customer Specials
For each $40 a guest purchases, they can choose one of these discounted titles. (They are even better prices than what I get as a consultant!)
Hostess Special February's Hostess Special is AWESOME! An extra $50 in FREE books once you reach $350 (the flier shows the extra amount included). Hostesses do pay 8% shipping and a $2 hostess fee does apply, but when you're getting $80 or more FREE, who cares??
Consultant Kit Special
Ever thought of doing something like this yourself? Wonder what it would be like to get paid to party? Consider becoming a consultant! You get discounted books, AND make money! For FEBRUARY 2018 ONLY, you can join for just $40! You get these amazing 7 books, plus business supplies and E-business package to get you started! Or you can always choose the Mini kit for only $75 and receive 10 of our fantastic titles and business supplies to get you started, OR the Business kit for $125 and receive 20 fantastic titles and all the business supplies you need to get your business started!
How to Party in your PJs The first thing I’d LOVE to see you do is to post on your Facebook Wall. Take a photo of any Usborne or Kane Miller books that you already have and share it with these words or something similar - feel free to make this your own. “Attention book lovers! Have you heard of Usborne Books & More? I recently saw these books and we are in love! Here are a few we already have & love! WE WANT THEM ALL so I am having a virtual party on February, 15th. If you want an invitation comment below. I won’t be mass inviting, so speak up! :)”
**I have done this for my own parties and I was surprised by the number of people who asked for an invite that weren’t on my list of people I was planning on inviting, so I really recommend doing this.
Private Message Friends
The next step is to send your friends & family personal messages, emails, phone calls, or texts (or however you communicate with them) to share your excitement and ask if they would like an invitation to your party on February 15th.
I know this may sound crazy to send all of those messages, but we’ve found that it really does work best to only invite the people who are interested in our products! It’s much better to have 25 yeses and 0 nos, than 10 yeses 7 maybes and 10 nos and 58 with no response. I also have an extra bonus for you as the hostess when we have 20 people who RSVP yes, so keep that in mind :)
Here is some sample wording: "Hi Sara! I recently discovered Usborne Books & More and I really want to learn & see more of them, so I am having a Facebook party on February 15th. I thought you might like to check them out too! Would you like an invitation?"

It will last about 30-40 minutes. You will want to be there a few minutes beforehand. I will post videos, links, and information. Interact, tag, and post as much as possible. At the end I will post how to order. I will do a drawing for a party prize for one of the guests - they earn points by interacting in the party too. As friends and family place orders, I will post a Thank You to them. This will help you know who has ordered and who hasn't yet. Following up with your guests who haven't ordered will help increase your party sales and hostess rewards!
Your Hostess Rewards! The day or two after your party I will let you know the total sales and what your free and half price book allowance is.
