A candle party is a great way to make new friends, see old friends and earn extra money. It is sometimes difficult to ask new and old friends for money. The purpose of your party is to have fun but also to sell your product. Here is a short guideline of how to sell at a candle party.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1
Determine how many guests will attend the party. The number of guests will help you determine how much product you should have, what types of drinks you will need, how much space you will need for the party and how to sell to the guests.
Step2
Ask someone who has had a candle party about their advice on all aspects of the candle party. They can be a great resource to help you decide how much product you will need, when to sell, when to entertain and how to be a good friend.
Step3
Prepare the menu for the party. Eat, drink and be merry is the motto. Create a welcoming and comfortable setting for your guests. You want an open atmosphere for fun and candles.
Step4
Tell your guests upfront that this is a party where you will sell your product. You don't want to catch your guests off guard without their pocketbooks. Forewarning the guests is also a common courtesy.
Step5
Present the guests with a short outline of the party's timeline. Let the guests know when they arrive when there will be time to purchase candles. This can take the selling pressure off the host.
