5 Online Party Game Ideas

Online parties are really popular these days and are much like a home party. If you are looking for some fun online party games, I have 5 game ideas to share with you.

1. Guest Scavenger Hunt – Before the party begins, pick 5-7 items from your website to use for your Scavenger Hunt Game. Write them down and come up with 2-3 clues about the product and its location on your site. When you begin the game during your party, let the guests know that you will give them a few clues about a particular product and they have to find that product on your website. The first person to find it, gets a point. The one with the most points, wins the game.

2. Word Scramble – Before the party begins, come up with a list of 10 of your products and scramble up the letters. During the game, copy and paste in the scrambled word and have the guests unscramble the letters to form the correct word. Award 1 point to the person who correctly types in the word the fastest. The person with the most points, wins the game.

3. Power Word – Before the party begins, decide on which word that you would like to use for the Power Word. I am with Tupperware so I like to use the power word ROCKS! Let your party guests know that every time you use your company name during the presentation, that the first person to type in the power word gets a point. Example: Tupperware has lunch products to…first person to type in ROCKS! gets the point. At the end of the party, the person with the most points wins a prize. This game is great as it holds the attention of all party guests during the entire length of the party.

4. Trivia Game – Before the party begins, decide on a few trivia questions that pertain to your niche. Example: If you sell kitchenware, make your trivia questions related to food and cooking. If you sell jewelry, have your trivia questions related to jewelry. I like to use 7-10 questions for this game. The person who gets the most correct answers, wins the game.

5. Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader – Before this party game begins, decide on what type of questions you would like to ask (similar to trivia questions but from a variety of topics). I like to use 10 questions. Have each party guest type their answer into the chat room. If they answered correctly, they get a point. If they type in the incorrect answer, they lose 1 point. If they don’t type in any answer, they lose 2 points. Give them a time limit of 20 seconds per question that you ask. The person who has the highest amount of points, wins the game.

What’s In Your Purse Party Game

This is a really fun game to do at a home party and it gets your party guests into a fun and happy mood.

1. Anybody have a 2009 year penny?
Talk about how great it would be to start a new business this year.

2. Anybody have a dollar bill with a 2 at the end?
Explain booking gifts for hostesses and benefits of hosting a party.

3. Anybody have a credit card with a 0 as the last number?
Explain business opportunity of (your Company), and how they could pay off that debt.

4. Anybody have a crayon?
Talk about the colors of your products.

5. Anybody have a travel brochure or picture with an ocean? *Could be on a check!
Talk about wonderful trips each year (your Company) offers.

6. Anybody have a telephone/address book with him or her?
Talk about how easy it would be to have a Party of their own and earn lots of free merchandise!

7. Anybody have a goldtone keyring with car keys on it?
If your company offers a consultant car program, talk to the guests about how they can qualify to drive a new car.

Give 1 point to each person who had one of the items mentioned above. You can award a prize to the person who had the most points.

Deal Or No Deal Booking Party Game

Deal or No Deal Booking Game

Take colored or pretty printed envelopes and in each envelope put a slip of paper inside that says: “prize” or “book a party.” Pass out the sealed envelopes to all of the attendees at the party. Let them know this is a “deal or no deal” game. They could win a prize or book a party, but either way they have to do what their envelope says.

Towards the end of the party, remind the guests about their “Deal or No Deal” prize envelopes. Announce that they can open their envelopes if they are thinking about hosting a party.

On the Prize Slips – I just mark…You won a prize. I offer a simple prize that costs me less than $2.50

On the Book A Party Slips – I mark on those…You win 2 prizes if you book a party with me today. For these, I offer a simple prize that costs me less than $2.50 and then the booking prize which retails for around $10.00

However, you need to stress upon the party guests that if they receive an envelope that has a BOOK A PARTY prize, they will need to book a party and hold it within the next 4 weeks.

Tip

To make this easier, I will use pastel solid color envelopes and pretty printed designed envelopes. I put the prize slips in the pastel solid envelopes and the book a party slips in the printed envelopes.

If only a handful of guests are at the party, I might give out just 2-3 of the book a party envelopes, if there are a lot of attendees at the party, then I hand out 5-7 of the book a party envelopes.

You can adjust this Deal or No Deal game to suit your own needs.

The Balloon Game — A Great Booking Game

Before the party, figure out what you would like to give as a little booking gift incentive. Write it down on a slip of paper and fold it to fit inside a balloon. Blow up the balloons and tie them shut.

As guests arrive for the party, they get a balloon… as you hand it to them say… “this is yours for the evening after all what’s a party with out balloons and presents. Hang on to it and don’t trade it away, you may be holding the special balloon…. It’s yours” and if he/she asks any questions regarding what’s inside… just give a very sneaky look and a smile!

When I open the show, I casually remind them to hang onto their balloons, that we will get to them later in the show.

For the entire evening the guest “owns” the balloon and the gift inside. You will see them shaking the balloon and see the curiosity in their eyes. Towards the end of the party, you will want to say, “ladies and gentlemen, you all have your balloons, and by now you have figured out that there is a special gift inside from me! If you decide to book a show this evening the gift is yours. and you may pop your balloon to discover what you have won, otherwise you must return the balloon to me. If three of you pop your balloon then the hostess get to pop hers too.”

The wording here is key! There is not a person in that room who is not dying to know what their prize is… and not a single one who is thrilled to give you their balloon back. And your hostess will also want to pop his/hers to see what their MYSTERY prize is, so he/she will work to get other’s to pop theirs. They must bring their Balloon to you with their order and pop the balloon with you.

If you’re like me, asking for the future bookings should not be the hardest part of the show, but the easiest and something like this would sure move things along.

Prize Ideas: Your prizes should be little items that retail for less than $5.00 each.
