Grand Opening

Guests are coming to celebrate you and your new business! Your Grand Opening can be virtually on zoom or in person (when we are able to get together in person again)! The focus is on the products and on getting orders and referrals. The business is explained so that your guests know what you are up to, to be comfortable making referrals. They may also choose to join you !

(If you wish to have your Grand Opening via a Facebook Party instead, discuss with your Arbonne mentor.)

Purpose of a Grand Opening to launch your business:

• To celebrate you

• To set your business into momentum!

• To teach you how.

• To introduce your network

• To find business builders, clients and prospects!!!!

Options:

• Celebration Party Live

• Celebration Party Virtual

• Dream Team Meeting Live

• Dream Meeting Virtual

•Healthy Living Inside and Out Product Presentation

• Social Media Launch

1. Choose the Dates
Pick 2 to 4 dates within 2-3 weeks of signing up and make a guest list of everyone you know! It's hard to say "I love you but I'm not available any of those dates!"

2. Review Your 100 Names List

3. Invite Guests (Personal Phone Calls, Texts, Emails or PMs)

• Call or message everyone to personally invite them. (Don’t do an invite blast through Facebook.)
• Keep it simple without details.
• Express your excitement and nervousness, be truthful, explain how it would really mean a lot to your to have their friendly face in the audience for support.
• YES they can bring their friends; the more the merrier!

• SAMPLE SCRIPT: (Consider doing a voice memo so they can hear your excitement!)
  “Hey Mary it’s Amy. So excited to tell you that I have started a new Health and Wellness business! I am hosting a 30 minute Grand Opening on zoom on [give dates and times] It would mean the world to me if you and (spouse) could come and support me! The link is: [Give Link] Which would work best for you?"

• IF NONE OF THE DATES WORK:
  "That’s ok! Let’s find a time for you and I to hop on zoom so I can practice sharing what I’m up to. I would really appreciate your help and it would be nice to have a quick catch up. How about [give 2 choices that you know work with your and your sponsor's schedule]?

• IF THEY ASK FOR MORE INFORMATION:
  "I can't wait for you to find out all about it at my Grand Opening. If I tell you all about it now, you won't need to be there and can't wait to see you and for you to be a part of the festivities! Which day can you come?"

• IF THEY ASK YOU THE COMPANY NAME:
  Say very confidently that it's Arbonne.

• IF THEY THEN SAY THEY KNOW ABOUT ARBONNE AND DON'T NEED TO COME:
  "Come anyway just to support me and not buy anything. Your support means the world to me."

• (Note: If you are calling and get voicemail, say “Hey it's Amy. How are you? Listen I need to talk to you! Call me back! I’m having a little virtual gathering and I want to see you there! My number is --****. Talk to you soon! Bye!”)

4. Make Follow-Up Texts (or calls)

An alternative text option!
Text 1: Free (date of first grand opening)?
If "yes" text 2: Great! Holding a grand opening for my new business. Come support me! Will be fun!
If "no" text 2: How about (date of second grand opening)?
If "yes" text 3: Great! Holding a grand opening for my new business. Come support me! Will be fun!
THEN TEXT ADDRESS. MAKE SURE THEY CONFIRM
IF THEY ASK FOR DETAILS CALL THEM AND FOLLOW SCRIPTS ABOVE!
Do so 24 – 48 hours before each event. Do this to confirm your Yesses and Maybes. The easiest is just to text "So excited to see you tomorrow at my Grand Opening!" Then text time and zoom link.

• Depending on who your prospect is, you may wish to lend out different products, such as a different facial system or a full fit kit.

Remember to clean the products and sanitize with rubbing alcohol between prospects!
