Ex-Home Party Plan Girl Tells It Like It Is

By Valerie Mason


I was going to go with Confessions of Ex-Home Party Plan Girl but believed it was a little over the top.

I remember those late nights. The parties always started about 9 pm or 10 pm on a Friday or Saturday night. That is was often the witching hour. By the time I got there, every person was fired up. Most had been drinking. These were the parties that could go either way. It might be a genuinely good night or perhaps a really bad evening. But there was no way of knowing. My job was just to go...and bring the stuff.

I was a Passion Party Consultant. For all those who don't know about Passion Parties, Passion Parties is a direct sales, home party plan that sells adult toys and novelties. It was my job to book parties, call hostesses to prepare them for their parties, bring sample toys, show them to the ladies and take orders. By far the most significant thing was to demonstrate the benefits of the opportunity but I was very uncomfortable about sounding like a sleazy salesperson.

When somebody at a party would express interest in becoming a home party plan consultant, I would virtually pee my pants. I'd contact my upline for re-enforcements. She was always calm and cool as she would run down the Dani Johnson script with me but I in no way got comfortable using the whole script thing. I was always terrified of returning calls to women who were thinking about joining my home party plan business. Actually, I was relieved when I'd call, and they didn't answer.

I didn't wish to be a team leader due to the fact that I didn't would like to do what I saw my leaders undertaking. They weren't unethical or anything like that. Nonetheless, going to bridal shows and women-oriented events to obtain party leads was exhausting. I believed having weekend parties would be fine but then when I realized that I was taking away from the only time I had to unwind following slaving at a 9-5, well, burn out came quick. I made great cash with the Passion Parties home party plan nevertheless it just wasn't for me in the long run.
