It’s been a week of feeling very grateful!   What about you?  What are you grateful for this week?  As direct sales entrepreneurs, I think the best thing to be grateful for is our FREEDOM!  Our freedom to choose, when we work, who we work with and the impact we have when we change someone’s life with our products and our business opportunity.   That impact affects so many people.   

 

This week,  I was so grateful to receive this message on Marco Polo from a coaching client.

Wow, the air waves were in high MOTION with excitement!   It’s so special when you receive this type of message.  We gave each other big virtual hugs – because I’m in Hawaii and she’s in Colorado.  Her success came about because we had the perfect partnership in working towards her goal to promote up to the next level.  The perfect partnership is when the client is ready!  Ready to set goals,  ready to take action and ready to do the work necessary to hit their goal.  I’m just the back-up, the person that keeps the client from falling off the balance bar.

#1   She set a very clear goal!   Her goal was to have three team leaders and one director before she moved.  Her husband is in the military and they have been transferred to Europe.  This meant she had a timeline and we mapped the process it would take for her to achieve her goal by her deadline date.

 

#2  We focused on strengthening her personal business.  She realized she needed to set higher sales and recruiting goals for herself.  We beefed up her sales goal to $3,000 a month which meant she was in front of more people to touch who were looking for her opportunity.

 

#3  She created a spectacular training for her team to get strong with their own bookings.  The key element to this was a MEGA Team Party which had rules if people wanted to participate.  This was highly successful because they got tons of bookings and recruited 4 new people.

 

#4  We worked on her New Recruit onboarding system, so every new person was guided to hit the first 3 months with a strong start.

 

#5   She worked on her Team meetings so everyone who joined would be inspired and have that feeling of team camaraderie.

 

#6   She focused on supporting those team members who wanted to move up, especially her star team member who wanted to hit the Director Level.

 

Is promoting up to the next level on your agenda?   Which steps above would be your focus?
