How To Play
At the end of the show, tell everyone that you’re going to play one more game. Say,
”I really do love my job, but instead of me standing in front of you and giving you a speech about what I find interesting about being a Carolina Country Bling affiliate, I would like you to ask me questions about what I do. You can ask me personal questions about things like how many jewelry pieces I have and such, I’ll answer them but that’s really not the kind of questions I’m looking for. Please ask me questions that concern my business and what I do. Every time you ask a question, you’ll get money from me and someone’s going to win a prize!”
“Before we get started, I’m going to ask the first few questions. Is there anyone sitting here who wouldn’t mind having an extra $500-$1,000 a month? Maybe you just need an extra $200 to eliminate one bill from your monthly budget. If either is the case for you, please ask me some questions!”
Sometimes, you have to get them going, but coax them and the questions will start. Hand the best questions more fake money than a simple question. Or you could hand out nothing but fake $1 bills. This option is completely up to you.
What to Say (Questions & Answers)
Q: How much money do you make?
A:It really depends. I have the option to price my on hand items at whatever price I'd like. And I can order any of the items we sell to keep on hand for things like this or events. We purchase items at a nice discount, between 25 to 65% off the suggested retail price. This means that when you do an average $500 party, you will make anywhere between $125 to $325 that night, depending on what items sell.
Q: So you don’t have to wait for a check?
A: No. I get to keep my profits that night but I always make sure I hit $2,000 in personal volume each month so I can also get a bonus check!
Q: I’m thinking about having a baby. Would I have to maintain a certain sales level every month?
A: Carolina Country Bling is a company full of women! To remain active with the company you will need to have an order of any amount. This order can be from your customer or your personal purchase. Carolina Country Bling isn't like some of these other companies that have a quota every month or quarter. Carolina Country Bling not only allows you to spend time with your family, but also gives you a chance to spend some time with adults in a fun and profitable way!
Q: Do you get a discount on personal purchases?
A: Of course! That’s how I’ve filled up a closet and a large jewelry box full of goodies.
Q: Are there any strict rules?
A: Nope! Carolina Country Bling allows us to run our business the way we'd like.
Q: Will I get any training?
A: Yes, you will get FREE training tools! We have a training website with an amazing assortment of information to get your business off to a great start.
Q: Does it cost anything to join?
A: As of right now NO! This could change as we continue to grow, so now is the time to get on board.
When the questions end, announce,
”Ok ladies, you’ve asked a lot of good questions (even if they didn’t) I just want you to know that Carolina Country Bling is a great way to make good money in just a few hours. Our average affiliates earns $200 per show; it’s a great way to get away from the kids and house while you earn guilt-free money. Take that money and pay a bill or go shopping. Work it when you want and go where you want! If you decide this just isn't for you, just contact home office and take all your profits, all of your products and walk away! What a great way to try your hand at owning your own business without all the overhead and risks!”
Mention any specials at this time.
Ask everyone to add up the value of the money they’ve earned and a prize goes to the person who has the most. As you go around the room to collect the play money be sure to trade it with a recruiting packet so that everyone who had questions get information to take home. You can also pass out fake $100 bills with your information on them. Tell everyone to put this in their pocket right now. Say,
”Now, the next time you reach into your pocket and all you can find is this fake money, call me so I can help you turn it into real cash by becoming a Carolina Country Bling affiliate!”
We hope this gives you an idea on how to answer the questions to get the most information out there. This is definitely a more comfortable way for many affiliates. A lot of affiliates who do this leave EVERY party with at least one new recruit lead!
