The Miche Classic is a “stand alone product line” and has increased it’s sales by 20 per cent in the USA since the Miche Max’s launch. Any HPR that wants to represent the Miche Clas-sic line only, please remember that you will not be eligible to sell the Miche Max bag at your Miche Classic home parties unless you purchase the Miche Max kit.

Tips To Start The New Year Off With A Bang!

Get the best use of your leaflets. If you meet someone who shows interest in the Miche bag offer him or her a business card or an invitation rather then a leaflet. Handing out the leaflet may encourage your potential clients to use ordering methods like the web or phone rather then you, so explain that by going through you that they will have ac-cess to more shells and also better deals. If they are still interested in viewing the shells before your next party then send them to the www.michebag.ca web page for selection but tell them to come back to you for ordering and deals. Keep your leaflets for the par-ties and to show selection to returning clients who want to order additional shells.

If you have a client that won’t be able to attend your home party but still would like to make a purchase, try creating a block of time to accept phone orders. Example: If you are having a party over the weekend inform your clients that you will be accepting orders from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. You can make the time frame as little or as long as you like! Why setting a time frame is such a good thing is that it will cre-ate a sense of urgency becasue you are creating a deadline for clients to receive the $5 shipping. This is also a plus for you and your host because the larger the order the more incentives you both will receive.

Keep your email lists up-to-date, your email list is your best communication tool you as a HPR can have. Unidem and Miche Bag do not contact your clients directly so it is en-tirely up to you to obtain your clients email addresses and to send blasts out introduc-ing new shells, promotions or invite them to a home party that you may have.

Try inviting your guests to a “New Year, New you” party. You can celebrate the year ahead and why not do that with a little Miche on the side?! The Miche Bag is always a great reason for a party!

Valentine’s Day is soon approaching! Make sure to have your parties and orders in to head office by the end of January to ensure that you will receive them before Saturday, Febuary 14, 2010.

Inform your clients that even though the holidays might be over, gift cards are still in fact available! They are perfect to give your friends and family for any occasion like Birthdays, Valentine’s Day, Graduations, and Mother’s Day!

We would love to know! Please contact partyrep@michebag.ca to leave your feedback.

Miche Referral Program

We would like to congratulate Jill, one of our Home Party Representatives in the Alberta area for being the first to reach the bonus five per cent mark for recruiting five remarkable new HPR’s!

For anyone who doesn’t know or has forgotten, here is a refresher for of our Miche Home Party Referral program! Here at Miche Bag we want to reward our representatives when they help expand the Miche brand! For every person that you sign up to become a Home Party Representative (HPR) and is an active HPR, you will receive $100. When you sign up five (5) party reps you will then have received $500 and your commission will increase to 25 per cent for your own parties. To maintain your increased commission of 25 per cent, your referred HPRs have to remain active and we will review their files regularly to ensure that you still qualify. If any of your referred HPRs drop out you will have to refer more reps (equaling to five reps) in order to again receive your initiative.

Miche Bag Wants to Know What You Want to Read!

The Miche Newsletter is here to inform our Home Party Representatives of all the news, facts and information that is important to them. That’s why we want your ideas and opinions about what you would like to see in future newsletters! Please contact partyrep@michebag.ca with ‘Miche Bag Newsletter Ideas’ written in the subject and tell us what YOU want to see!
