Who is right to invite? Everyone needs Norwex in their home, including your Friends, Relatives, Acquaintances, Neighbours, Kids’ Friends’ Parents and Internet connections. Your F.R.A.N.K.I. List is a simple tool to help you identify them all.
STEP 1 Make an Impact: Launch Parties
Why this matters:New Consultants who hold a Launch Party within their first 15 days are THREE TIMES more successful than those who don’t. (Crazy but true fact!)
What to do:Schedule your Launch Party dates on your calendar today!Why 2 Launch Parties? Maximise your success by offering 2 Launch Party options. Not everyone will be free on any given night, so it’s best to offer 2. You’ll see more people and help grow your future party calendar.
In-Home and Online Parties: Some Consultants find that one in-home Launch Party and one online party work best for long-distance family and friends.
Fun Option: “Reveal Night” Invite a few friends to your house to “reveal” or open your Starter Kit box and experience it together. You get to practice and build confidence, and they can be the first to order and decide to host a party, helping you launch your business.
Your business on your schedule.The beauty of a Norwex business is that it revolves around your life, not the other way around. On your calendar, mark the dates of your personal events and commitments first, then add your 2 Launch Party dates and dates for your next parties.
Invite everyone on your list to your Launch Parties.Star the names of the first people you’ll ask to host a party to support you in getting started.
Put a heart next to the names of those who come to mind when you think of building a Norwex Team.
Give it a 4-Party Try! Have fun and build momentum by having 4 parties within 30 days to start earning your FreshSTART Rewards!

What to say if someone isn’t interested:I completely understand. Perhaps you know someone who might be interested to hear about Norwex? (Referrals build your business and are the best compliment).
STEP 2
STEP 2 Fill Your Calendar
When you plan your Launch Parties, use your F.R.AN.K.I. List to invite friends and family to host their own party.
Why this matters:Friends Don’t Let Friends Use Toxic Products Your friends will be excited to support you by hosting their own Safe Haven parties.
As you’re sharing Norwex with friends and family, they will see the impact of Norwex products and the benefit of creating safer homes, so they will naturally want to educate their friends, too.
What to do:Inviting is easy—simply share from the heart!Bring your enthusiasm! Share why you started a Norwex business. People will support you when they hear the excitement in your voice as you share why you joined Norwex.
I’m so excited! I just started my own Norwex business!I joined Norwex because I fell in love with this new way to clean without harmful chemicals.
What I love most is how much healthier it is for the family.
The reason I’m excited to share this is I know you are going to love these products as much as I do.
Close each conversation by inviting them to……Join You at Your Launch Party: I hope you’ll join me for my grand opening to launch my business on ____________. Can I count on you?
Great! I’ll add you to my guest list. Bring a couple of friends, too! Thank you for your support—it means a lot to me. See you on _____________.
…Be One of Your First Hosts:I’m asking a few of my friends and family and I thought of you first. It’s super easy— would you consider inviting a few friends over so I can share Norwex in a quick 30-minute demo. How does that sound?
Great! I really appreciate you helping me. I have _______ or _______ dates available. Which is best for you? I’ll get in touch and send everything you need.
Personalise the Power Invitation to make it your own and just be YOU when reaching out to people on your F.R.A.N.K.I. List.
Keep going… you’ve got this!Your top priority at your Launch Parties and every party is to continue to fill your calendar.
OVER-INVITEInvite more people than
you think will come. Not everyone can make
it on any night, so invite, invite, invite!

STEP 3 Your Best Demo: Safe Haven 5
Sharing Norwex is simple, and demonstrating the Safe Haven 5 products is the best way to show others how to start reducing harmful chemicals. Share what you love and how you use each product. Your excitement is contagious!
Why this matters:When you focus on a 30-minute product demo with just the Safe Haven 5 products plus the Mop System, it’s easy to get started doing parties right away. These five products clean about 90% of a home with just water!
Create future business during each party!
LISTENBefore and during your
demo, LISTEN for clues as to who really loves the product; who has a long wish list but not a big budget; who just
loves parties, etc.
SPRINKLE SEEDSSeeds sprinkled throughout
your demo gets guests thinking… “My friends
need to know about these products. Maybe I should host a party.” or “Wow, I
could totally do what they do, and it looks like fun!”
CHECKOUTCreate a note for yourself
that says, “Invite Everyone,” and keep it nearby to remind yourself to ask
everyone to host a party. You never know who will say “yes” if you don’t ask!

Checkout ConversationsThis one-on-one time is all about
connecting with your guests. Here’s where you can help them discover what Norwex
can do for them as a Customer, as a Host or even getting involved as a Consultant like
you did!

IF, YES Put a date on both of your
calendars and a time to connect in the next 48 hours
while they are still very excited.
IF, NO Ask if anyone comes to mind who might like to hear about Norwex. Example: “Who do
you know who might be interested in learning more

EnviroCloth™ and Window ClothProblem: Cleaning the surfaces in your home quickly and without harmful chemicals can be challenging.
Solution: Our microfibre cloths clean even the dirtiest surfaces using only water and remove up to 99% of bacteria when following proper care and use instructions. Plus with our BacLock® technology, your EnviroCloth™ self-purifies!
Demo: Spread butter on a small mirror or glass surface.Place a damp, folded EnviroCloth™ flat against the surface and demonstrate how well it works to remove the butter in just a few swipes. Follow up with the purple polishing Window Cloth to reveal a shiny and streak-free mirror.
Seed: When I come to your home for a party, I’ll show your friends this amazing duo in action!
Dusting MittProblem: Dust buildup can be unsightly and cause
allergies and other respiratory health issues.
Solution: Dust without chemicals using the Dusting Mitt! The Dusting Mitt removes not only dust, but the
grease and grime that attract dust, too. Its static charge attracts dust
like a magnet.
Demo: Slip the mitt on and remove dust from somewhere in the
Host’s home… on a railing, shelf or above a window—wherever greasy fingerprints attract dust.
Seed: I love that this came in my Starter Kit for free
when I joined Norwex!
Cleaning Paste Problem: You need a safe and effective product that can remove all kinds of stains plus deeply embedded dirt and grime from multiple surfaces around your home.
Solution: Our Cleaning Paste is “elbow grease in a jar”! Use it with a damp EnviroCloth™ to easily and quickly remove rust stains, hard water stains, scuff marks, permanent marker, dirt, grime, soap scum and so much more from a variety of surfaces!
Demo: Use Cleaning Paste and a damp EnviroCloth™ to remove permanent marker from a small white tile.
Seed: Share a story. Example: My daughter decided to be Picasso and draw all over our walls with permanent marker one day. Cleaning Paste saved our walls (and her) that day. Are there any people in your life who might need a little elbow grease in their homes?
Laundry Detergent Problem: Some laundry detergents are filled with
harmful chemicals.
Solution: Our Laundry Detergent is a highly concentrated, stain-fighting powder (or available in liquid) that is
biodegradable and free from phosphates and fillers.
Demo: Before your party, add 1 teaspoon of Laundry Detergent to a clear, jar of water and stir.
Using another jar, do the same with another brand of popular laundry powder. At the party, point out the “clear difference”
of Norwex Laundry Detergent.
Seed: My commitment to safe choices and my family’s health is why I started using this amazing product and now I’m on a
mission to share it with others.

Mop SystemProblem: The floors in your home often harbour chemicals, dust, bacteria and other pollutants tracked in from outside.
Solution: The Mop System keeps floors and walls clean while reducing chemicals in your home. Made with Norwex Microfibre, the Wet Mop Pad has the ability to remove up to 99% of bacteria from a surface with only water when following proper care and use instructions.
Demo: Move the mop across the floor in a figure-8 pattern with the Dry Superior Mop Pad to pick up dirt and show how it locks in debris. Switch to the Wet Mop Pad and demonstrate how easily it cleans spills with just water.
Seed: If you have fallen in love with the Mop System you should consider having a party of your own to earn it for free. You can also earn lots of other free products and Host Credit to spend on anything in the catalogue!

Why this matters:Filling your party calendar is easier when you know what to do before, during and after the party. It starts with Host Coaching.
Your Host is more than just a partner for your party. They are your biggest influencer who helps make connections and networks on your behalf. Host Coaching will help maximise your relationship, creating a better party experience and more successful networking.
Prepare a Host Pack for each Host that includes:• Personal Thank You Card• Catalogues and Order Forms• This month’s Host and Customer Specials
You want your Host excited and committed! Keep in touch with them and say, “I can’t wait for your party and I’m excited to meet your friends! Do you have any questions I can answer?”
tip
Taking the time to write a thank you note shows your Host that you are genuinely excited and grateful for them. This helps create a lasting bond and keeps them excited about helping you spread the Mission!
What to do:Host Coaching: As you book parties, you’ll want to build relationships with your Hosts. Connect with them three times before the party, making sure to let them hear the excitement in your voice!
Thank Host: Thank your Host for booking a party Let them know how excited you are to share Norwex with their friends
Suggest ideas and tips for inviting guests
Check In: Call your Host to see how inviting guests is going Answer questions Continue to build excitement about the party

Customer Follow-Up After your parties, use the 2-2-2 follow-up formula to stay connected with your new contacts and build relationships.
Every conversation at and after your Launch Parties is a chance to further connect, spread the Mission and reach your FreshSTART Rewards!
2 DAYS after the party: • Thank guests for attending. • Give Customers a date when they should expect their products to be delivered.
2 WEEKS after the party: • Call your Customers to ask how they like their Norwex products. • Do they have any questions about how to use them? • Are they ready to try new products?
2 MONTHS after the party: • Thank them again for their purchase and ask if they would like to reorder.
Share the Customer Specials for the month. • Share the Host Rewards and ask if they are interested in hosting a party to
earn free products. • Invite them to join you in spreading the Mission by joining your Team.
Build Connections with ReferralsWhen people are excited about something new, they are eager to share it with others. Make it easy for your connections to pass along their excitement to their family and friends.
• Carry business cards and catalogues everywhere you go.• Always know your next available party dates.• Ask for referrals!
More Ways to Connect
Have a small get-together with friends and neighbours. Often a gathering of 2 turns into a party of 5.
Lend your EnviroCloth™ and Window Cloth to a friend to “try it” for a day or two. When someone sees how well Norwex works, they’ll want to share it with their friends and family.
Share your website with faraway friends and family so they can support your new business, too.
