If you want to earn extra income as a homemaker, a good way to do it is to open your home and hold a catalog party. You can ask for some free catalogs from the company you signed up for and depending on the number of copies that you got and the capacity of your home, then you can invite that number of friends over. You can look for those good products with nice catalog printing to make it easier for you to sell the products. Or if you think that you home is not big enough, maybe you can find a convenient venue for all of you to meet together. It can be a very rewarding experience. Not only do you get rewards points if your invited guests make a purchase, you may also earn commissions. Plus you get to enjoy the company.

If this is your first time to hold a catalog party, then maybe these tips will help you get started.

1. What kind of party do you want to host? Knowing the kind of party will help you plan it out. Like when it comes to finding a venue, preparing the food, or setting the time. If you are hosting a party where you will be selling candles, maybe the best time would be an after-dinner cocktail party so that you get to light some sample candles and appreciate its light and probably the aroma. If you are going to sell kitchen gadgets and you would like to show people how they work, then you better have a kitchen. Then you can serve what you have prepared to your guests.

2. Get a consultant to speak or make the presentation. Home party companies usually have consultants per area that you can invite over. Or they can also help organize a party. Chances are; they can also invite some guests so that you have more audience for your presentation. The consultant will also be able to explain to you the promos of the month, taxes, shipping charges, and most of all, your income as a hostess. Sometimes you get a commission or you get freebies, depending on the orders of your guests.

3. Getting your catalogs. Usually, the consultant provides the catalogs as well as the order forms. If you intend to make your hosting a regular thing, then maybe you can work out a more beneficial plan for you.

4. Sending out invitations. Make a list of your family and friends who might be interested in the products. You can make your own invitations or just send a note together with a catalog. Then confirm their attendance a day before through a phone call or an SMS.

5. Ask about online transactions. Most companies allow online transactions. People who are far from you but who are interested to make an order can do so online and still credit the transaction to your account. These online features will also enable you to get into affiliate marketing on social networking sites. That will increase your income potential.

6. Post party follow ups. As the host, you should follow up the orders of your guests 2 weeks after the party to make sure that all the orders were received. Enhance your relationship with your clients by calling them and asking them about their experience with the product. And don’t forget to thank them for joining in your party.

Giving away catalogs could greatly enhance your income potential as a party hostess. Look for products that have the potential to sell and check out the quality of the catalog printing because these materials can make or break your form.
