Dice Booking Game
Materials Needed: 3 to 5 Dice Ask guests what is the one item that they want the most that they are just not able to purchase tonight! (Most times it is a Jelly Tool Belt or a higher priced item. Hardly ever will a guest say the Decadent Indulgence, because the ladies that want this item typically purchase it!) Then offer them the opportunity to play the Dice Booking Game to receive the item at a tremendous discount when they book a party! Have each guest who wants to play pick a date for their party. When a guest selects a date that falls on a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday: Roll 3 dice. Whatever the dice total, is the price she will pay for the item when her party takes place. When a guest selects a date that falls on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday: Roll 5 dice. The total on the dice is the price she will pay for the item when her party takes place. Explain that in order to receive the discount on the product of her choice, the party must hold on the date that she selected. You will bring the product to her party and give her the discounted price that night. (Be sure to make a note of the discount and the item she wanted when you write her booking information in your Planner.) Using this approach helps increase bookings and provides an incentive for the new Hostess to hold her party on the original booking date. (If you wish, you can give 1 week from the original booking date to alter the party date if necessary.) If the new Hostess decides not to hold the party on her original date, she forfeits the discount and must pay full price if she decides to purchase the item. Almost always, you will not have postponements because the new Hostess is committed to holding to get her special discount. Submitted by Malissa Eldred
