Home Purse Party – Where the Party is “in the Bag”!

By: Laura Worechek

If you watch the news, read the papers or keep up with the latest happenings, you’ve probably already heard about home purse parties – they’ve been popping up all over the country lately!

Whether you’ve got a “passion for fashion”, or your friends call you “the bag lady” because of the number of purses perched in your closet, having a home purse party is a great way to enjoy a wonderful shopping experience with the latest in fashion and accessories, and spend a little time with the girls, too!

A home purse party is pretty much just the way it sounds – you invite a bunch of your friends over and everyone enjoys a fun and personalized shopping experience without having to waste gas driving all over the place, fight traffic, search for parking spaces or deal with the crowds at the mall. Instead, you’ll have the chance to sit back, enjoy a cup of coffee or iced drink, talk, and laugh and enjoy yourself, all the while seeing the very latest in purses, fashion accessories, briefcases, luggage and more. You’re invited to touch the soft leather, look at the many different colors and styles, and try things on at your leisure. No pushy salespeople, no pressure. Just an afternoon or evening of fun and shopping!

There are many different direct sales companies that offer personalized home purse parties. To find one in your area, check out your local yellow pages or go online. Once you find a home purse party consultant in your area, just give her a call.

Your consultant will help you every step of the way – from designing an individualized party that meets your needs (and that of your guests), to creating a theme, making your guest list, deciding on games and refreshments. And if you’ve got any questions before the big event, she’s only a phone call away.

Something you may not know about having your own home purse party is that there are definite benefits to becoming a hostess – everything from free hostess gifts (you know that metallic clutch bag you had your eye on?) to discounts on all merchandise you purchase. Make sure and ask your purse consultant what benefits she offers and what the different sales levels you need to reach in order to get the gifts you want.

Your purse consultant will give you a hostess kit which should have everything you need to get started planning your purse party – most hostess kits include checklists, invitations, guest lists, party game ideas, themes, ideas and recipes for refreshments, and several brochures or catalogs that you can pass around to friends and co-workers and anyone who can’t attend the party, but still wants to buy a new bag.

Talk to the consultant about ways that you can guarantee more people show up, and how to increase your sales before and during your home purse party, so that you are sure to get the gifts you really want. Here are a few tips from other hostesses:

• Always invite about twice as many people as you think will show up – and follow up with phone calls, to personally invite people or to remind them a day or two before your party.

• Be excited and enthusiastic about your party and stress the fun! Everyone likes to have a good time – so if you don’t sound like your party’s going to be great, neither will anyone else!

• Put that prizes will be given if to guests who bring people with them. Remind people to bring their old purses (you can offer to take them to the local thrift store, or give them to charity) and that they should bring their current bag too for one of the party games

• Having a theme is a great way to get people excited to come and you can tie everything – your decorations, invitations and the food you serve into the theme. It makes the whole party easier and more festive.

Having a home purse party is a guaranteed way to make sure that the party is in the bag and have a wonderful time shopping for the perfect purse!
