Creating your opening speech

The first exercise is from my very first PRU.  It was homework we did before the training.

Read through each question then go back and answer.  Each answer will help you create the story for your Opening Speech.

What made you decide to join Pure Romance?

What do you hope to gain by starting your own business?

When you achieve success, how will your life be different?

How will you feel when you achieve your vision and how will it affect you and your family?

In whose life will you make a difference while you work your business?

Once you answer all of these questions you can use them to create your story.  Be passionate about why you chose Pure Romance- you never know who may be listening extra carefully!!

Sample Opening Speech

After attending my first party I was hooked!  What impressed me most was the philosphy of the Founder and CEO of Pure Romance, Patty Brisben, which was stated right in the catalog.  I connected with her approach of empowering and educating women and providing them with quality products in a confidential and safe environment.  I was also impressed with the money that could be made!  Since I needed to contribute to my family's income, Pure Romance became the perfect solution for me.

As we go through the presentation, if you think what I'm doing looks fun and you'd like to know how much money I make, see me in the ordering room and I'll provide you with some information about the business opportunity to take home with you tonight.  If you are looking to make extra cash, have fun and have control over your schedule, Pure Romance may be right for you.

I would like to thank [hostess] for inviting us into her home.  Can I see a quick show of hands of how many of you have been to a Pure Romance party before?

For having the party today, [hostess] will be receiving a percentage of the total sales of the party in free product of her choice- anything she would like.  So when you come into the ordering room, order well!  If you're interested in hosting a Pure Romance party of your own, let me know and we can set up a date that's convenient for you.

Here is the fun part- tonight, you will get to taste our edible products and smell our scented products.  Let's make your left hand your 'licker' and your right hand your 'sniffer.'  Remember it's okay to sniff your 'licker' but don't lick your 'sniffer!'

Our party is divided into two segments.  The first part of the party consistes of our massage and bath products, lubrucants, arousal products, games, books and some novelties {I add the vaginal health section, too}.  The second portion of the party is dedicated to bedroom accessories <wink>.

For your privacy, I will be setting up a separate ordering area that is [describe where ordering room is].  This will allow you to come in one at a time and select the items that you would like to take home, as well as ask any questions you may have.

You can pay by cash, check (made payable to me) or major credit cards and we will take care of that in the private ordering room.

I have catalogs and order forms for each of you.  Please know that your catalogs are yours to take home.  I encourage you to circle and star anything in the book that you want to take home with you.  {I stopped saying that to preserve catalogs until Chris pointed out that business cards get misplaced more easily than a catalog}

On the order form, I just need you to fill out your name, address and telephone number on the top of the form.  Much of what you order tonight is going home with you.  However if there happens to be an item I don't seem to have, the product will be sent directly to you in about 7-10 business days.  Your Hostess will never now what it is that you ordered and it will arrive in descreet packaging.  Take a minute to fill out the order form {I use the CCC instead} and that's all the paperwork you're going to have to do this evening.

Okay, let's get started!

This is the one that's on your COO and it can be changed to suit you however you like- it's simply a guideline.
