Welcome to Your Hostess Guide

Your nail bar is just around the corner! Your date is set, your hostess packet is in the mail (or maybe it already arrived) and we are ready to rock!

I am SOOOOO excited for your online FB nail bar (that is what we call Color Street parties!) These parties are always a blast and I love getting to know you and your friends better!

Take a look at the hostess rewards offered from Color Street and then let me know YOUR party goal! How much do you want to earn?!? I recommend aiming for a $300 party (as that is our party average) and that will get you 4 free sets, 3 sets half-off and free shipping!

I will do my best to help you reach your goal!

My BEST piece of advice to get some amazing rewards is to interact as much as possible! That includes private messaging , texting, commenting, and tagging. My hostesses who GO LIVE in their own party and do a live application or just pop on to encourage their friends to check out the polish, tend to have better hostess rewards!

So what's Next?!?

I am sure you are wondering, what do I do now?!?

Either you or I will make the group we will hold your party in (yes a group, not an event!) If you are comfortable making the group, you can create a group and name it "Susie's Summer Nail Bar" or "Susie's Nail Bar" or even something creative like " Get Stripped with Susie." and invite me to be your first member. This is the best route. However, if you are not comfortable with this, I can make the group and add you when it is ready for other members. Either way, I will get the group, once it is created, ready for guests when the time comes! We will chat about which you prefer.

In addition, Facebook has changed some of their rules for FB groups. You can no longer just add people to groups. If you do that, they will likely sit in a preview mode and miss much of the party! So to combat that, I encourage you to to use the invite button, but then follow up with BEFORE the party starts to let them know that you sent an invite and to be sure to join. Here is a sample message:

Happy Wednesday!! I was just making sure you saw the invite to my Color Street party that kicks off tonight, with a quick, 30-minute party!! Not sure if you have ever tried, but I’m hooked! So easy and looks like a salon mani! Be sure to join the group to get in on the fun and giveways (and you can even request a free sample!). I think you will love it! Oh and they have a beautiful collection that just launched! 🥳🥳🥳

Here is another sample text or private message this message (or a version of this with your own spin) to friends, coworkers, and family members you know would love the product.

"Hey Susie, I have was recently introduced to dry nail polish and LOVE it! It sounds crazy, but its awesome and I am obsessed! The strips are so easy to use and look amazing. I think you would love it too. My Color Street stylist is sending out free samples to anyone who wants to try them first. All you have to do is fill out this form HERE . There will be a quick, Facebook party coming soon. More info to come! For now, request a sample to try it for yourself!"

1-2 days before your party starts

1. Post YOUR nailfie with Color Street polish on it to your personal page with a little explanation on why you LOVE the product. (Don't mention the party yet!) If you need a good nailfie to use, let me know, and I'll send you one!

2. Those that like, love or comment, personally message them to invite them to the party. (Remember, DO NOT simply add them with the invite button in your group, send them the link to add themselves!)

Day before party

1. Post this wording on your personal FB page with the image below: "I'm hosting a Color Street FB party! I would love for you to join the party. No pressure to buy, but definitely come and check it out!"

2. Post the link to the party as the first comment!

It's Party Time

Once we have at least 10 people in the group I will start posting in the party! Many posts will be interactive to get your ladies engaged and having some fun right from the start! I will likely offer an Early Bird Special if ladies are in the group at least one day before the official party kick-off time.

During the kick-off it is important that you are there and tagging your friends so they join in. Be sure to remain engaged over the course of the party. Comment on party posts (not to be entered into the drawing but to encourage engagement!) and reply to party guests as much as possible. If you want to Go LIVE on your own or come on with me, that would be amazing! That really pumps up guests when they see their own friend's excitement about the product.

One other way to increase sales and get ladies engaged is to follow-up personally though messenger.

Something like

" Hey Susie, I'm so glad you opted in to my Color Street party! Be sure to watch the LIVE from last night on replay and engage with the posts for a chance to win a free set of polish! Be sure to reach out with any questions about the polish or ordering to me or Amanda. I can't wait for you to become obsessed with this product just like me!"

"Hi Susie, thanks for checking out the polish in my Color Street party! I love this polish so much and can't wait for you to fall in love to! I wanted to make sure you have the link to order (insert link) and cant wait to see what you get! Let me know if you have any questions about the polish or ordering!"

Just Have Fun

Remember, I will be doing most of the work with posting, sending samples and tracking orders... BUT, your friends are here to support you! So the more interaction from you, the better! I am looking forward to sharing Color Street with you and your friends!

Thank you for choosing me to be your Nail Gal and Color Street Stylist and trusting me to share with your friends and family! This business has provided financial freedom for my family that I could never have dreamed of and I couldn't do it without ladies like you spreading the Color Street LOVE!

xo, Amanda
