4 Steps To Fun Parties!

Parties! A Direct Seller's Best Friend! The question is: Are my parties fun?  Fun parties = success. How do you know if your parties are fun? Here are 4 steps in making sure you throw fun home parties that will keep your hosts and guests coming back for more!

Home Party Lesson 101:

Have your host pick a theme!  Mexican Fiesta, Chocoholic BYOC,  "Choc luck", Girls Night Out, Mom's Night Out, etc... fun = better! 

1. Connect with guests and host.  Give them time to relax, breathe and enjoy once they get there.  10-20 minutes at the beginning taken to mingle, relax, let them settle in, learn about them, ask them questions, get them some drinks... LISTEN TO THEM!  
Transition: Ok, so let's grab a seat and get going let's "smell some awesomeness"! (or target your products)
Do On Time Drawings, don't worry about it starting late. Let go of your own agenda!!

2. Show up as yourself authentically.  Be yourself! You're more comfortable when you're you! You do a better job with sharing your products. People sense when you're comfortable and they tend to trust you when they see the real you. You need to know that not everything will come out perfect.  It's better not to be perfect because people can relate to you better. If you make a mistake, claim it and move on!

3. Get your guests involved from the beginning. Give them permission to get involved! They're not supposed to sit quietly and listen to your presentation. It's a party! Let them talk, get involved and relax. Tell them they're going to get involved.  Ex. the hokey pokey  put your whole self in!

4. Keep it visual.  Keep your guest's attention. They are visual learners.  What you say to your guests sounds Blah Blah Blah, you want to make it as visual as you possibly can.  Use props. Show them what they get if they host. Don't just tell them. (page in a catalog, or boxes of products). Use props during opportunity commercials.  Why bag?  Pass the bag around and have things inside explaining why you do what you do! Pic of kids, tax benefits, free travel, free prizes... 



RELAX AND HAVE FUN!!!!

Tips For Building Customer Loyalty

As we try to build our business and our customer base, it is necessary not to neglect our current customers. If we want to strive on success and sales, we need to put some effort into building customer loyalty.  I will work on a series of "Tips For Building Customer Loyalty" so check back often for a new blog on this topic!

1.  Offer Customer Incentives.  Give your customers a reason to be loyal to your business and come back for more!  Offer a Free gift with purchase or a buy 5 get one free, or even a preferred customer program where after placing a certain number or orders with you, they get a free product. If you can offer free shipping or discount for ordering personally with you, include this as a customer incentive. Be creative and come up with your monthly incentives for your customers and watch them come back for more!

2.  Do follow-up and courtesy calls. Don't just call a customer to see if they need more product, call them to see how they're doing, to check up on them, to find out how the family is doing. Try to always remember an event that will be going on with them and call back to check in and ask how it all went. They will see you are interested in them and not just their business, and they will come back for more! Facebooking, texting and emails are good, especially when we live in a fast paced society, but a phone call is a building block!

3. Provide excellent customer service. Each company has policies, but as consultants or representatives, there are things we can do to go the extra mile for our customers. Don't hesitate in providing the best service you can when it comes to questions about exchanges, returns or unsatisfactory purchases. When our customers see us go the extra mile for them, provide them a small thank you gift, or from time to time send them a little something for their wait or just for placing an order, they will come back for more!

Stay tuned for more tips!

Stop! Think! Don't! 5 Don'ts For Direct Sellers!

For all Direct Sellers, there are 5 negative actions, or DONT'S we need to avoid. If you find yourself doing one of these, then Stop! Think! and Don't! Just change the negatives into a positive and see success!

1.  STOP over analyzing what you should be doing and just go do! When we think about the actions we should be taking, we tend to feel guilty about not getting it done. Stop thinking about what should be done and just get to going! Start with a list of 6 daily actions or spend your first 15 minutes in some Income Producing Activity and take that momentum into your day!  Just Do!

2.  STOP spending more time on the computer than meeting new people and making connections! The way to build a customer base and customer loyalty is to let people get to know us. A smile, a hello, a conversation, face to face, goes a long way. Get on the phone and call past hosts/hostesses and customers so they can hear a "live voice" and always have a smile even when talking  on the phone! 

3.  STOP wasting your first morning hours on things that are going to stress you out or worry you. Spend your first morning hours doing things that will build your day, your momentum, that will get you into a positive mood. Read a book, pray, listen to music, write, do what you enjoy best during the morning hours instead of focusing on chores or things you "need to get done" but are not going to set a positive mood for the remainder of your day.

4.    STOP saying you're trying your best and giving it your all, just get out there and do it. Show everyone how you're doing it. Lead by example and the rest will follow. If you just say you're trying your best, chances are you're not really putting all the effort you could be putting in by getting out there and doing!

5.  STOP making excuses and over thinking why you're not working your plan, and just do it!  If you need to follow up with customer calls, don't make excuses, just do it. Set a specific time daily or weekly and make the calls. If you need to send out customer emails, don't make excuses. Whatever daily or weekly Income Producing Activity you must accomplish to target your goals and plan of action, do it, don't hesitate, over think or excuse yourself.

Those were the 5 Don't s, now in case you haven't figured out what the 1 Do is, here it is:  JUST GO DO!

"Successful people aren't born that way. They become successful by establishing the habit of doing things unsuccessful people don't like to do. The successful people don't always like these things themselves; they just get on and do them."  -- Unknown

4 Basic Ingredients for Success!

If you're hungry for more success, these 4 ingredients are sure to help your business rise beyond your expectations!  But, don't forget that all 4 of these are necessary in order to achieve; without one or the other, it will be like your favorite dish is missing a key ingredient from its recipe!  So, get used to these 4 ingredients and use them daily in your selling, sharing, coaching, mentoring, training, booking and watch it all rise to a higher level of success!

1.  PURPOSE    why you do what you do, what positive results you get from doing what you do, and what future dreams can you accomplish by continuing to do what you do.

2.  COURAGE  step up, stand out, get out of that comfort zone, step out of the boat and go into the water. When you do something to step up, and stand out daily, you will see results.  

3.  PASSION  personal energy, focus, love for your brand, company and what you do will get you results... when you incorporate your business into every aspect of your life, you shine your passion and love and others will understand and also partake. 

4.  COMMITMENT  discipline, stay on task, finish the race, get the job done... do something daily and don't let the day end until you've done what you set out to do for that day. If you commit to your business and lead by example, you will find that others will commit as well because of what they see in you.

When you're busy being productive (no matter how many minutes or hours you have set aside for your business in that day),  you can't worry about what is NOT happening, because so many things are! When you work your business with these 4 ingredients, you are sure to grow and succeed because you just can't go wrong!  Try it and you'll see.... but remember, don't leave one of these ingredients out because then your final results won't taste the same.... and I know you want to taste the VICTORY!  :)

8 tips to build your Direct Sales Business!

8 tips to build your Direct Sales Business!
These tips can be applied to any Direct Sales Business that is based on selling and hosting parties.


1. Keep Catalog Parties handy and available everywhere you go. (Catalogs and order forms and business cards) Drop them off at Dr.'s offices, dentist, bank, dry cleaners, salon... Make sure you carry your planner with you and write down the dates and contact info of each Catalog Party you dropped off.

2. Try to find 10 new contacts per week. (Drawing slips, new customer info sheets, take them with you everywhere!)

3. Always follow up with past hostesses and customers. Send thank you notes and offer specials to host or re-order.

4. Continuously book parties. Catalog, basket, demos, home parties, open houses, multi vendor events. Include drawing slips, or customer sheets in all types of parties and offer a drawing prize to a winner from that specific party using the drawing slips. Offer an incentive to the host if it's a catalog/basket party, for getting those slips returned to you!

5. Have certain dates during the month available to your customers so they know you will be placing an order. Offer free shipping for locals or offer a 1/2 price reward for an order of $150 (or qualifying amount).

6. Offer referral incentives for any bookings/sales/recruiting. If someone refers a lead, and if they buy or host or join, the person that referred can get a free gift or half price item. There may be people who do not host or join, but they give good referrals and leads!

7. Hold a Customer Appreciation Day Sale. For example:  This day only is Customer Appreciation Sale Day for every $30 purchase get a free gift... Remember if your company does not allow you to post your personal sales publicly, then make sure you contact your customers with these personal sales.

8. Celebrate your yearly Anniversary with your company. Offer deals on the day of your Anniversary and remind your customers that their support is important and as their Consultant, Rep, or Distributor, you want to include them in your celebration. Tell them how many years you've been with your company and share your story with them! (Celebrating your Birthday with your customers would work the same way!)
