Set up a time to follow up with your host one week before the party. Introduce the host to the opportunity and plant the seed for her to become a consultant. Encourage the host to set up a Q before the party, so it can be used as an example. Make sure that the host follows up with those they invited and has a head count for those planning to attend.

After you introduce yourself, thank the Host for having the party and explain the Host Benefits. Then explain each item you have handed out and tell the guests what they are. Tell them that as they sample the food and talk about the products, they can start a wish list on their order form to help them keep track of what they like and want. Get them comfortable with the order form from the beginning. Walk them through the price list by each category and let the delicious selections of food do the talking. Tip For those that strive to hit the top ranks, you should be holding 2-3 parties per week in order to maximize your earning potential. Talking Points Reasons What is a reason other than convenience where the long shelf life is beneficial? I think the main reason is for the peace of mind that you will be able to feed your family in times of disaster or hardship. You have health and life insurance, you should also have food insurance. Personal Experience When I started my Home Store, I felt. I know someone that went through a hardship and had a home store. They were able to. Why Shelf Reliance is different Shelf Reliance is different because we offer products you can use every day. The taste and quality of THRIVE is second to none. In addition, SR cares about what food we provide for your family, which is why we build a customized plan specific to your family s caloric needs. SR has also developed excellent products that rotate your THRIVE food for you. THRIVE uses Many people mix THRIVE ingredients with other ingredients to prepare meals. Many use the eggs and milk because it doesn t go bad. How many eggs do you go through in a week/month? What if I told you I could give you 236 eggs that don t go bad, are less messy, easier to cook with, won t give you salmonella, and taste as good or better in baking? How many have ran out of milk before? Never again. Great for baking, cereal, drinking straight.

2 Mix & Mingle - 5 min Welcome guests as they come in the door. Welcome to the party. Thanks for coming. Please go ahead and try some of the samples we have set out on the table. We ll be starting shortly. Script for Party Host intro Host thanks all for coming, expresses excitement about Shelf Reliance and THRIVE, introduces consultant. Consultant intro Thank you for taking time to come this evening. My name is..and I am a consultant for Shelf Reliance. I got involved because Now, you all know the host, but I don t know all of you. Please tell me your name and why you are here. OK, all of you that filled out the planner information, please put your name and on a small sheet of paper for our drawing. The winner is, congratulations. I think we can all agree that we could use more time and money and less stress. We could also be healthier. Shelf Reliance offers the solutions that every household is looking for. Thank you for letting me share a product with you that will help save time in the kitchen and money on groceries, while lowering stress through having all the healthy food you need in your own Home Store. Simple As you can see as I prepare these dishes, THRIVE is very easy to cook with. THRIVE can features pass around cans. Our cans are based on a trusted model each THRIVE color corresponds to a category in the food pyramid. There is a recipe on each can. A peephole on each can allows you to view a picture of the actual product inside the can. Product name oriented for use in Food Rotation Systems to make it easy to read. You can see that the Freeze dried labels are a bit different there is a banner on top that represents Freeze Dried. Our cans have double coated lining to help preserve taste and shelf life. SR manufactures our own products on site. Today you will learn how to: Prepare nutritious & delicious meals. Cut meal prep time in half! Reduce waste and save money. Create your own convenient Home Store Quiz 1. How many servings of fruits and vegetables are recommended per day? 7 On average how many servings do we get? 3, With THRIVE you will always have the healthy foods you need to bring the family together for meal time. THRIVE also works great as a quick snack right out of the can, so it is simple to reach the recommended daily servings. 2. On average, how many times a week do families sit around the table for dinner? 3-4, Why aren t we having nutritious family meals as often as we should? Research shows that the number one reason families don t eat together is because there isn t time to shop and cook. This is where Shelf Reliance comes in. Besides providing better nutrition, cooking with THRIVE decreases preparation time immensely. 3. How long does freeze dried food last? Up to 25 years when sealed and 1-2 years after it is opened. This allows you to keep delicious products in your home for both convenience and security. I will teach you later about the tool that allows you to build your Home Store, called The Q. Introduction Shelf Reliance began with the mission to help individuals become truly self reliant. In order achieve this goal they designed a plan that would help people create their own Home Stores. The company started the Home Store concept by developing customizable shelving units that had the capacity to hold and rotate large amounts of canned food. These shelves have been tremendously successful. The most popular is the Harvest 72 which can hold over 460 cans in 3 different configurations. However, they realized that the foods that most people were using in their shelves were store-bought cans that had extremely high amounts of additives and preservatives. In order to match the quality of the shelves they were offering, they decided to develop a very unique line of food called THRIVE. THRIVE is healthy, convenient, and long-lasting. Today I will be introducing you to this innovative food line. Storage Quantity How much food do you need? Our easy-touse online planner will calculate exactly what you need for your size of family. Shelf life The shelf life depends on the product. You can go online and see what each individual product s optimum shelf life is. It ranges from years. The average is years. After the shelf life of a particular food has been reached, the taste and quality of the food will begin to diminish. Why do we coat our #10 cans? They are double coated to ensure taste and shelf life. Pantry Cans The standard can size you are probably familiar with is the #10 or gallon size can. In addition to #10 cans, Shelf Reliance offers a smaller, more convenient can called a Pantry Can. The compact size of Pantry Cans and convenient pop top lids make them easy to store in a cupboard or pantry, and easy to use on a daily basis. Freeze Dried vs. Dehydrated - When a food is dehydrated, heat or air removes the water from the food, in turn changing its shape and structure (raisins). When a food is Freeze Dried, it is placed in a machine the temperature drops to between -50 degrees C and -80 degrees

3 #1- Nutrition What are we doing instead of eating nutritious family meals? -Snacking on junk food. -Eating expensive, processed food. -Eating fast food or picking up take out. Shelf Reliance offers a much better alternative. Instead of snacking on empty calories, snack on THRIVE fruits and veggies. These THRIVE items you are trying are not dehydrated like you may be used to; they are freeze-dried. The freeze drying process keeps all of the nutrients and flavor, more so than dehydration. The process is done by lowering the temperature and air pressure to a point where the water is forced out. This transition from water to gas is called sublimation. You can eat these as they are, or you can rehydrate them to return to their regular consistency. There is no added salt, sugar, or preservatives. Serve fruit or yogurt samples Thrive Shopping list: write down Thrive foods to snack on Health Benefits from delicious home cooked meals. A typical home cooked meal has about 600 calories. A fast food meal has 2 to 3 times as much! Preparing your own meal usually contains less fat, calories, and preservatives and more protein and fiber. Thrive Shopping list: write down ingredients of one favorite meal A large percentage of foods in the grocery store are processed. Large amounts of sodium or potentially harmful chemicals are used to extend the storage life of canned foods. The heating process during canning destroys from one-third to one-half of vitamins A and C, riboflavin, and thiamin. For every year the food is stored, canned food loses an additional 5-20% of these vitamins. *Point out the online recipes and the THRIVE Cookbook and explain that Kelsey Nixon of the Food Network developed many of these. *Introduce pantry cans and how they fit nicely in a typical pantry. *Explain the can features: nutritional facts, color corresponds to food pyramid, recipes, shelf life, and manufacture date on each can, peephole shows what the food actually looks like, product name is listed sideways, FD label is slightly different, #10 or pantry size. #2- Saving Time We ve discussed how THRIVE foods can help us eat healthier, now how can it save us time? How much time does your family spend together? Wouldn t you like more? Preparing a THRIVE meal can significantly shorten your prep time for a typical home cooked meal. No more defrosting, chopping, or cleaning! And I can t forget to mention all the time you will save on clean up! The next time you are thinking about picking up some take-out, remember that convenient, healthy, less-expensive THRIVE food will save you so much hassle, giving you more time to spend doing the things you love. Prepare a quick sample meal or serve a main dish and talk about how easy it was to prepare it. THRIVE Shopping List: write down foods that take a long time to prepare *You can introduce how to make fresh soups with THRIVE. Also, remember to introduce your guests to our line of delicious entrées. You can highlight specific products such as powdered eggs, shortening, butter, milk, all of which save you lots of time and money. C. This is followed by a drop in air pressure. This transition from the solid to gas phase with no intermediate liquid stage is called sublimation. This process allows the food to keep its shape. Retain a much longer shelf life than dehydrated food, and maintain better taste quality. FD makes great snacks for kids, some kids think mangos are lucky charms. It is great for baby food. Kids FD makes great snacks for kids, some kids think mangos are lucky charms. It is great for baby food. TVP vs. FD meats TVP stands for textured vegetable protein. It is a soy-based meat substitute often used at some fast food restaurants. It has a shorter shelf life than freeze dried meat. Many people mix TVP s with the meat you buy at the store to save money. TVP is vegan- and vegetarian-safe. It s a great source of protein and is thought to be healthier and preferred for a low-fat diet. Optimal storage conditions The optimal food storage conditions are constant temperature below 70 F with low light. Safety Our products are FDA & HACCP certified. We go through rigorous measures for high standards of safety. We have samples tested at a scientific lab on a monthly basis, and we frequently hold 3rd party safety inspections on our manufacturing facility to ensure the highest level of food safety quality possible. Food quality THRIVE is the premium quality food product on the market with a long shelf life. We are relentless in finding the best food sources in the country. Except for a few products including TVP, our foods contain no additives or preservatives in order to maintain excellent taste quality and freshness. What about the time we spend at the grocery store? With an innovative program called The Q, we will be able to spend less time in the grocery store and more time focusing on what matters most! More details on The Q in a minute! #3 Reducing Waste and Saving Money Now that we are eating healthier and saving time, how can Shelf Reliance help us save money? How much do we spend on food every month? Typically about $100-$150 per person per month. How much food do we throw away every month? The most expensive food is the food we throw away. Most THRIVE foods have a 25 year shelf life, so this is not a problem! THRIVE Shopping List: write down foods you commonly throw away How much of our food dollars are spent on eating out? Restaurant meals or convenience meals from a grocery store cost 2 to 10 times the cost of a THRIVE meal.

4 How many times a week do we go to the grocery store for a couple basic items? If you are like me you are always running out of the basics things like milk and eggs. THRIVE is the solution to this timeless problem. Stop wasting time and gas money running back and forth from the store. All you need to do is to establish your Home Store and you will be set. For example, our eggs have well over 100 servings in one can. Buying the same amount in the store would be much more expensive. And since our eggs have an extended shelf life, you won t need to worry about them spoiling before you use them. Serve a baked good, like the corn bread, and talk about how it is nice to always have basics like butter, milk, and eggs on hand. THRIVE Shopping List: write down foods you commonly run out of. How much of our grocery purchases are impulse buys? Multiple grocery trips can cost consumers more money in unnecessary purchases, gasoline, and time. Many people find that they are tempted to purchase extra items each time they enter a store. Shelf Reliance can help reduce waste, eating out, multiple trips to the grocery store, and impulse buys. How much could it save your family? Professional chefs We have professional chefs that test our products and develop recipes using THRIVE ingredients. It is important to us that THRIVE is suited for everyday use in the home. One of them, Kelsey Nixon, is featured on the Food Network. You should go online and check out some of our recipe videos. Grocery budget THRIVE is a great replacement to groceries. I just reallocate a small portion of my monthly grocery budget to THRIVE foods. I love that I can build my Home Store and learn to cook with it all at the same time. And it doesn t cost me any more money to do it! Point #4 Creating a Home Store with the help of The Q The Q is the online tool that can help you create your own Home Store. You simply enter your family member s ages, gender, and caloric intake. You decide how many months of food you want to have in your Home Store and the Planner will calculate the amount of food from each food category that you will need. The next step is to decide the amount of your monthly grocery budget you d like to reallocate toward your Q, as well as the date you d like it shipped to your doorstep. You have the ability to customize and manage the foods that will come to you each month, or you can let the food from your plan come randomly each month. The reason this program is called The Q is that you will always have food waiting in a queue to ship to you. *When you pull out the pamphlet, go through each level of the Q Club. Explain how the Platinum is the best membership. Introduce the current Platinum promotion. With a Home Store, not only will you have the convenience of always having nutritious food in your home, you can also build up a supply of food in case you ever experience any type of hardship such as, job loss or economic instability, or other disasters such as floods, earthquakes, and power outages. You will have the peace of mind that your family will always be able to eat well, no matter the circumstances. THRIVE can be your Food Insurance! How to make your Home Store work for you: 1.
