Popping Balloons

I think one thing you need to take into consideration before playing ANY game with your fans, customers, friends and family. Not every game will work for every body and if you go into everything with positive thoughts and motivation without a predetermined outcome you'll be more successful in your business. Also you do not need to play games to have a successful business but good customer interactions and follow ups will help you grow your business.

That aside let's look at how to pop balloons with Scentsy.

Details you need to decide on before you start: -
When: - remember just because you have an idea today doesn't mean you have to act on it straight away so when would you like to play?
Image: - see below
Description: - what text will you be putting along with your image, make sure you include your PWS address so anyone who sees it in their newsfeed will know who you are. Think of the FREE marketing and networking! When people comment on your posts (depending on your privacy settings) it gets put into THEIR news feed and then all of their friends can see it. Encourage comments but do not give away any more details.
Responses: - what do you plan to say to those that comment on your image.
Prizes: - deciding what you are going to use for each balloon is real important, saves you being put on the spot and having to suit a reward for each person when the number is selected, it also allows you to stick to a budget which is VERY important, never give away more than you can afford. You also need to ensure that all conversations regarding these prizes are discussed in private.

Here are a few examples: -

• Love Scentsy? Pick a balloon and see what happens https://rackfamily.scentsy.com.au
  
• Let's play a game! Pick a number – comment below! Numbers can be selected by more than one person go! https://rackfamily.scentsy.com.au
  
• Who's ready to play? I've got 15 balloons, which one are you going to pop? https://rackfamily.scentsy.com.au
  

You don't need to put many details into your description as you want to give them the details in a private conversation. 

Responses: -

Once they have picked a number then you need to send them a private message with something along these lines: -

• "Thanks for playing pop the balloon! Would you like to know what you will win if you have a qualifying party of $220 or more?!"
  • They reply with yes or no then you can tell them what they win IF they have a qualifying party of $220 or more!!!!
• "Hi! Thank you for participating in my number game!  You choose #4 - that means if you host a qualifying Scentsy party for me any time in September, October or November you will get a FREE *insert prize here* from me as a THANK YOU!  It can be a home or basket party? What date works for you?"
• "Thank you for playing! By popping balloon number 2 you have selected a special prize of *insert prize here*. Now you can only collect that prize by hosting a qualified party (or placing and order over $220 yourself) if this sounds good to you we can book whatever type of party you like to get you that prize plus hostess rewards."
• "Hi there!!! Ok here's the deal! You popped #15.... Just for popping a balloon you are getting a FREE Scent Circle. That balloon also had a secondary prize if you host a party with qualifying sales this month which is *insert prize here* Now before you freak out about how to qualify, I will help you! If you are able to gather 4 orders of $55 each or 3 orders of $75 then you're done, otherwise if you want me to help you get even more party rewards I can do a one hour event on Facebook with games and stuff to show people what Scentsy is. Only thing I ask is that you invite your friends and that you attend the online event as well.
  So, I need your address so I can send you your FREE Scent Circle, then I need a date for the one hour party demo. Unless you decide to gather the orders yourself. Easy Peasy! So let's pick a date!!!  Weekend or weeknight? Remember this is done all online so you don't need to worry about a baby sitter or cleaning up the house for guests, gosh you can even do it in your PJs.

If you find that those that play are already a future host how about providing them with an extra challenge instead of booking a party book because they have already booked. You could select one of these challenges

• Two outside orders prior to party starting
• One outside party booking
• Two basket parties
• Sales over $100 before their party starts
