So glad you decided to join me and become a Younique Presenter!!
Here are some things that will be helpful....
Fast Start
As a presenter the company offers a Fast Start bonus, to encourage building your team and your sales. You will have 90 days from the day you sign up to get 3 presenters signed up under you and $2000 in personal sales. If you do that, it means you earn $250 in Younique cash and a Fast Start charm. Younique cash can be used to purchase additional products!
How to Set Up a Party
Go to your Younique website and Login. Click on My Office on the right hand corner. and click on My Parties, then Schedule a New Party.
*You must be friends on Facebook in order for them to host a virtual party.
**You also have the option to host a part for yourself. I recommend doing this after every one of your 10 day parties ends, so that way you can earn your own rewards and keep a supply of make-up/mascara at a discounted price. If you ever order anything...make sure you do it under your party!
Once you have filled everything out and have saved the party, an event is automatically created and a link will become available for you to copy and paste in to your Facebook group. I prefer not to have my party be an event, but rather a GROUP. To do this you go to your Facebook account and on the left hand column you will see a category labeled groups. You click on “create group”. From there you follow the prompts given to create the group. I either have it be an closed or secret group. After the group is created you must invite your host to the group. From there, you will need to notify your host that the party group has been set up and that she now needs to invite as many friends as she can. The more the better! In the meantime, you need to write a welcome post and video. (Pin this post so it stays at the top of your page.) Briefly explain who you are and what Younique is. Explain that the party is all online and that you are going to post info about the product for the next 10 days. Also explain and post the link to the host’s actual party. To get the link for their party, I always just open up the host’s party on the Younique website and copy and paste the URL into whatever I post in the party group.
Advice For Your Virtual Parties
1. Always ask your host to help you showcase the products to their friends!
2. Ask your host to be VERY ACTIVE in the party (tag her friends, post her own pictures, let her friends know what she is hoping to get, private message people, comment on posts, etc.)
3. You, as the presenter, need to be active in the party. Post at least 3 times a day. Throughout the party you need to post about each product several times.
4. Always let your customers know what the special of the month is.
5. ALWAYS post your party link on each post (comments section)... If your customers do not see where they need to shop they will not go searching for it and will not purchase. Make it easy for them!!
6. Show before and after pictures and post videos of YOURSELF!! If you are not trying the products out on yourself, how are you going to let your customers know how well the products work??
7. If you can play games in your party for a chance to win something FREE, DO IT!!
you can even send out a free sample of the eyeshadow as the gift...
8. Answer questions correctly. If you don't know the answer, ask your upline!!!
9. And have fun!!!!
During and After a Party
1. Make sure to thank anybody who has purchased from the party
2. Keep in touch with your host throughout the party. Ask them if they know of anybody who is interested. Make sure your host knows how they earn hostess rewards. Send them a picture of the Hostess Rewards Diagram and explain that 2000 points = $200 in sales, 3500 points = $350 and so on. Let them know where they are at with their rewards – this will keep them motivated and excited to help you sell more!
3. Make sure your host knows that in order to use their rewards they can only use them on your Younique site. They cannot be used towards somebody else’s party. Also, they cannot use Younique Cash towards their half-priced items or to buy a presenter kit. These rewards have already been paid out. They have one year to use their Hostess Rewards.
4. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to send thank you cards with your business card to those who bought from the party as well as the host. This way when they want to buy more product they know where to go!

· Shipping is $5.50 for up $99 / Free for $100 +
· Include the party (not Facebook) link in everything you post. People from mobile devices and tablets cannot always click the party link to go shopping if you don’t. Anything you can do to encourage and make shopping easier will help you.
· The more excited and interactive you are on your parties, the better! People will feed off of your enthusiasm.
· Your hostess cannot redeem her rewards until the day after her party closes. She needs to go through your website to do it and she must be logged into her account. Any Younique cash or rewards you or a hostess earns will show up when you go to check out, after adding items to your cart.
· Younique cash CAN NOT be used to pay for shipping or taxes or applied to any half priced items.
· Hostess reward redemptions do not count towards your personal sales or other party credits unless they pay above their rewards and half priced amounts.
Facebook Accounts
· Business Facebook pages can be a great way to spread the word about your business.
· Go to this page and click “Create Page” on the top right corner.
· I set my page up as “brand/ product” and then went under “health/beauty.”
· Your Facebook page name or image must say something about you being an Independent Presenter and not give the illusion that you are representing the corporate page.

· My Parties:
o You will be able to see all of your parties you have had and are currently having. You can see how much each party has earned, how much Younique Cash/Half-Priced Items your host has earned! Your host can also see/keep track of this by going to their party and scrolling down to the bottom!
· My Office:
o You will be able to see/keep track of what you and anybody under has accomplished
o Make sure to pay attention to what the ladies under you have accomplished and let them know you notice what they are doing. Keep them motivated and let them know when they need to work a little harder or simply congratulate them. Everybody succeeds when we help each other out!
I will invite you to join some Facebook Groups (These groups have lots of helpful information and lots of resources for help and ideas! In these groups there is a section labeled “Files”. Here you can find lots of good information and ideas
Organize
It would be a good idea to set up a folder (ex. All Things Younique) and have folders within it. These folders will help you stay organized. My folders include (Eyes, Face, 3D lashes, Lip Gloss, Brushes, Collections, Party Posters, Before & After, etc.) As you see things you like or want to use just save it to a specific folder. When I want to post about something specific I just pull up that folder!
I also have a folder labeled useful material. This is where I save all the information I gather about the company (Information for New Presenters, Policies, Style Guide, Quality Guarantee, Commission Plan, Games, How to Material, Hostess Rewards Diagram, Royalties Program Requirements/Rewards, etc.)
***I highly recommend you use the product you are selling! It makes it much easier and you become more knowledgeable about the product. People will ask you questions and the only way you will honestly know is from experience!
