B) Sales Specials and Leads - Let all of your guest know what specials for party are. Also make sure they know link to your site.

C) Games and prizes You have your games and prizes figured out, pick a good time to play them usually after everyone has had a chance to look through your specials and site
D) Recruiting & Hosting Leads Let your guest know what your hostess is getting tonight for hosting party. Tell them they can get same thing if they would like to host a party also. Ask them to let you know if they want to host. If agree then try to set a date for party if for some reason a date can't be set right then let them know you will be emailing them to pick out a good date Tell guest what you get from starting your own business. Be sure to tell them recruiting special that your company has going.
E) Chit Chat - Make room for general chitchat all through your party. You don’t want it all to be business but make sure you keep control of your room that way when you need conversation geared back to business it can easily be done.
3) Closing Party
A lot of times online parties don’t end right when they are scheduled to so plan on being there longer than what is actually scheduled. When everyone is getting ready to leave (they will usually leave at different times) be sure to thank them for coming and let them know you will be contact with their total (if they ordered and if you hadn’t already gotten their total to them) Also let them know you hope they had fun and you hope to see them around again sometime. Ask if they would like to be added to an invite list you are making for upcoming online parties. Be sure to thank you host for hosting and let her know you will be in contact to let her know what she has earned from her party
This is just a basic way to have a online party. You will want to do what feels comfortable to you. Play with ideas, do what works best for you.
