1. Scope
A Party strategy is a way to sell products or services to a group of people in an informal setting. Parties are often organized by independent sellers who recruit their friends, family, and acquaintances to attend the event. The seller presents the products or services to the guests and answers any questions they may have. Guests can then purchase the products or services on the spot or at a later time.
...
The Party module in the S4DS software allows you to manage everything related to this strategy, such as event dates and locations, guests and attendees, orders taken, and defining and keeping track of goals to be achieved in each of the events organized from the Party Plan module.
