What to Expect From Online Parties in 2021
If you’ve never been more excited to ring in the new year, you’re in good company!
2020 may have been full of surprises and drama, but we are so very proud of you for keeping your chin up and making adjustments to benefit your business and your family!
The biggest change for most businesses was to work remotely from home and turning to the internet and social media for success.
The good news is, as the year dragged on people all over the world have become more understanding and even grateful to have more resources available online to be delivered safely to their doors.
2020 was a roller-coaster of bitter sweet adjustments for everyone, but now that we have hindsight, we can take a moment to be amazed at the progress made for businesses who thought outside of the box for their customers.
Incredible people like you have also stepped-up their game to achieve greater results than they ever thought possible. Congratulations!
Here’s our reflection on Facebook Parties and where we think they are going in 2021.
How Direct Sales Parties are Evolving from In-Home to Online in 2021
Social media, apps, and digital devices like smartphones have become more accessible every year. It’s never been easier to connect more people and businesses with our ever-evolving technology.
But even though running Online Parties has been a slowly growing trend over the past few years, many direct sales companies still valued face-to-face human connection among their team members and customers with In-Home Parties, over the cold abyss of selling on the Internet.
But in 2020, all of that changed forever…
With the sudden shift of people staying home, the realization that running Parties online as the ONLY way to gain success, began to set in.
Companies suddenly jumped into high-gear to find virtual solutions for intentional sales for their consultants, and to get quality and safe products to more customers.
Individuals like you now have a unique opportunity to reach out and connect with more people all over the world who are in a similar boat with being home.
The need for connection and hope is bigger than ever!
Enter Facebook Group Parties as the Solution
Not only has Facebook been hard at work to create Groups as an easy way to connect people, but the entire sales presentation had to shift in a way that brought fun, joy, and hope to people who needed connection in the most meaningful way.
Making direct sales Parties more fun and engaging with the unlimited potential of Facebook reach, was one of the BEST moves made in 2020!
Not only did product sales soar, but the opportunity to make real cash safely, reached people who needed it now more than ever.
What does this mean for In-Home Parties in 2021?
Now that just about every company has made the shift to Online Parties in one form or other, training and advice for better Facebook Parties will be even stronger.
After months of adjusting their approaches with Facebook groups, trainers have found a sweet spot with presenting product posts in fun ways and getting engagement with real-life video presence that invites a more casual approach that says, “Hey! I’m just like you living life at home and we’re in this together!”
Facebook will continue to bring the best features to their platform and make them super easy and convenient to use.
Creating video content is hugely popular and going live is favorable for making connections with your customers.
Long gone are the days of presenting the perfect orderly household and family. People are hungry for real people.
With Online Parties, direct sales companies now have a beautiful balance to serve their customers with the convenience and safety of virtual solutions directly in their homes, without giving up the hope of human presence.
We have to admit that buying from a Facebook Party in 2021 will be a whole lot more fun than scrolling through tons of catalog-like posts and ordering the bare minimum “just to support my friend.”
This creative shift from In-Home Parties to Online Parties is bringing more people together than ever before!
We are confident that Facebook Parties are here to stay and will only grow stronger in 2021.
