A new option for a very effective WP is to use the superb dvd Prime-Time Health (30 minutes with Dr. Bill Sears discussing the latest in breakthrough medical discoveries that won the Nobel Prize just a short time ago, with the most amazing graphics, and of course recommending Juice Plus+) and a new simplified approach! Simply invite people (call-send-call) sending this Smoothie & Movie invite or Prime-Time Health WP Invitation. You could even do a lunch & learn at an office with these! The audience for this WP (and the dvd) is not only 'baby boomers' (born between 1946 and 1964) and older, but also anyone who is wise enough to look ahead and plan for their future. That's everyone! This is the simplest WP you can imagine - no presentation book, no script. Dr. Sears does the "heavy lifting" and we serve a selection of JP+ Complete Smoothies in the kitchen as guests arrive (prepared just beforehand), sip them while watching the 'movie' and discuss it afterwards. Using the JP+ Effect brochure as a visual aid to the discussion is also very effective, as is letting your guests sample the JP+ Soft Chews. Optionally (if you like a little more structure) you can ask people to fill in 3 sheets and discuss their goals, following the 6 steps above. Texting the InvitationWe're in a new world of communication where a growing number of people communicate more by texting and facebook than by phone or email. So Stacey Turner tried a new approach to inviting people to her WP - texting the invitation. Stacey went through her contacts on her phone and texted this invitation: "Hey there, I am inviting you to join me and some of my friends this Friday night for an informal discussion on what we are all doing to stay healthy and a chance to share ideas and tips we use as health conscience Moms. We are having dinner at 6 and talk at 6:45. I know you are super busy but I thought you might like a night out. Can you come? Love, Stacey." Stacey got responses from prospects, people came, and she got orders. Why not try it next time?! On a smartphone or blackberry you can build a list of those you plan to invite to all your events, and send one text to the list, or copy the text and paste it each time, making it less of a chore. Here's more great advice from Stacey and her 'different' successful WP.
Family WPIf you have the energy and the resources, you can invite parents and children to attend a Wellness Party together. Begin the presentation with the parents and children ages 6 and above together in one room and then split up after the FACT page. Begin with children ages 5 and under in a separate room from the start. Review these ideas for each of the groups of children. How to organize a Family WP... Family WP Invitations: Family WP Tools:
Other Good Ideas for WPsAt the beginning of a WP we often ask attendees, as they arrive, to complete a Wellness Survey. The Owner's Manual also has a good one on page 7.8. "Shock Value" is not always effective, but Worst Food Choices offers some amazing pictures and facts that you may find useful at a WP. Mountain Dew and Sunkist Orange Soda are great visuals to use showing the amount of sugar in popular sodas. Tape together the number of sugar packets that equal the sugar in those two drinks, and having them rolled up to start with, flip the string of packets out in front of the group to illustrate the shocking amount of sugar that's in the drink. You can use this Order Form to take orders and enter later at your Virtual Office. The Healthy Happy Kids Campaign is a great variation of the Wellness Party geared towards families and kids. You will find all the materials for HHKC at your Virtual Office (under Training ... Presentations). This School Wellness Policy brochure would be a great handout for WPs about children's health. Always send your guests away with something: a CD, DVD, another brochure. If they haven't already been to your website, then a brochure with this website guide inserted inside would be great (add your own info. and cut the sheet into three). How to Close a WP (one example)"I am so glad that you guys were here to hear this information. If you are sitting here thinking "wow, how in the blazes am I going to get 9 to 13 servings of fresh raw fruits and vegetables into family?!", that’s exactly where I was 5 years ago and that’s why I love my Juice Plus+. It bridges the gap between what I am trying to do and what I am TRULY doing - and does the same thing for my kids - for less than $1.38/day. So if you would like to get started on Juice Plus+, here’s an order form" (and I pass it out the Order Form). "And if you are going to get started today, I will send you home with this little starter box. This little orange box is full of a 1/2 dose of the JP+ fruits and vegetables. So you can get started right now, today and be empowered! And even if you’re not going to get started today that’s okay. Just fill out the top portion of that order form so I can have your personal information and then I can send you home with a doctor in your pocket (a CD/DVD). And for those of you who ARE starting, I will make sure you get a doctor in your pocket as well, so you can continue to learn. For those of you who have a child between the ages of 4-18 (full time college students), we would be more than happy to (help) pay for the fruits and vegetables for your child. We have them in new Soft Chewies and we also have them in capsules. So make sure you that you put their name and their DOB right on the form and we will (help) pay for your children for one full year. My husband and I sponsor over 50 children every single month. That’s how much we believe in this program. The Juice Plus+ Children's Health Study has been a very, very important part of the health of our family." (You can also use that same verbiage with the Juice Plus+ Effect offering 2 full months of bottles of Vineyard or 2 cans of Complete after the 1st 90 days for being that good customer and trying to make these small incremental health changes. You’re offering them 2 free months.) Then I schedule two Wellness Parties for two people that are smiling and I know they wished they would have had a brother, sister, mother, uncle…. in the room and I get my calendar out.
