Buying and Selling
Buying
Paparazzi releases new jewelry to their consultant website around 3 PM EST 5 days a week, so there is always something new on their website to purchase. We LOVE that there is not a catalog but that the inventory is always new and exciting! It keeps customers coming back week after week to get the hot new pieces!
There are 5 basic styles in Paparazzi jewelry and it’s important that we learn them and learn to assemble matching sets. Many of our customers will come to depend on us to be their fashion consultant or stylist, and we need to be ready to provide that service when the opportunity arises.
It’s important for us to learn the styles of our customers and purchase to fill their needs, not just purchase items that we would wear.
As we learn our customer’s styles and needs, we will learn to purchase multiples of the same item. You will see new items and immediately think ‘I need 3, 5, 10, or maybe even 50’ of that one item.
Not only is it important to learn how to shop for our customers, but there are ways to maximize the value for yourself as a consultant by purchasing ‘smart’. Learn to purchase in multiples of 10 because you get one free piece (hostess reward) for every 10 that you purchase. Also, if you order $100 or more you will receive free shipping on your order. These small adjustments can help to maximize your profit and make a large difference over time.
Selling
From Launch Parties to Home Parties, Basket Parties, Messenger Parties, Festivals and Events, Facebook Lives, etc., there are so many ways to sell that anyone can find a few ways that will fit into their lifestyle. While selling in person at home parties, your work, family, church and events etc, are all important, we need to be careful not to rely on only 1 or 2 avenues.
With the ability to Go Live on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, you are missing a huge network of customers that can absolutely blow your sales through the roof if you don’t Go Live! Having a strong social media presence and Going Live is very important, so be prepared to get comfortable on Facebook, Instagram, Youtube and as many other social media platforms as you want.
