Hello, ,

 

It is strange to go to the local shops and see everyone wearing a mask?  This week I saw three friends and we just said hello and kept going.  It’s going to be a while before we stop and ask questions like, “How’s the family doing?”    It’s hard to tell if anyone is even smiling at me, I’m sure they can’t tell if I’m smiling either - so I wave a lot.  

 

How are you doing now that we’re getting ready to emerge and begin to socialize a little.  I think we are all going to be a bit awkward and learn some different social skills.   Learning different skills means we have to stretch our minds.

 

On my YOUTUBE channel this week, I’m sharing exactly how one of my precious coaching clients has helped her young team focus and stretch to achieve record growth.

How are your VIRTUAL parties going?   My clients who took my ONLINE course on the 8-steps to taking your party Online, are having great success.  The success lies in their confidence in knowing they just need to tweak a few things differently.  But what isn’t different is taking the action to schedule parties and reaching out to keep consistent bookings flowing on their calendar.

These tasks haven’t changed.

 

One of the secrets I want to share with you this week is how I use my google calendar with my paper Direct Sales Planner. 

 

• I begin by scheduling my appointments in my paper planner.  Each evening before I leave my office, I make sure I know what’s scheduled for the next day.
• I also sync these appointments on my GOOGLE calendar in my phone, so that I will get that delightful beep to tell me 10 minutes before my appointment or event or TASK is due.

 

That’s pretty simple right?   It’s really helpful right now as I’m working on TWO big projects.  

1.  I’m opening up my JOURNEY TO LEADERSHIP program in June. Stay tuned for a FREE webinar coming soon to learn more about this program.

And

2. I’m working on creating a DIGITAL DIRECT SALES PLANNER!      A Digital planner mimics the experience of using a paper planner but on an iPad or other tablet-like device, or even your phone. If you’re looking to change up your paper Planner use the DISCOUNT code PLANNER 2020  HERE and join our community PLANNER HUB. 

Working on these TWO NEW PROGRAMS there is a LOT of action steps involved.  So now, I’m actually scheduling my ACTION steps into my planner.  Every day when I look at my planner there’s not only coaching sessions and other appointments there’s things like

 

• Create a perpetual calendar of Birthdays list for Digital Planner
• Write list of monthly training for refreshed Journey program.
• Contact V.A. to upload new sales pages.

 

These are tasks I would normally put on my to-do list, but I have found that when I add important tasks to my PAPER CALENDAR and they get synced with my GOOGLE phone calendar and I get those lovely BEEPS I’m truly getting things done!

 

As I said this is so SIMPLE, but I thought it might be helpful for you too.   I heard it many times this week ONLINE learning can be quite overwhelming and take so much time.  That’s why scheduling and writing down your action steps and tasks on your calendar, will free up your mind so you know they will get done!

 

How about you?   How do you schedule your ACTION STEPS to get things done? I’d love to know what makes you feel organized.

 

Love & Success to you,
