Aloha,

 

This week has been challenging week personally keeping the balance with personal and business life.  All I can say is it’s like these beautiful avocados in my back yard.  The wind blows through the tree, and we watch and wait as they grow and ripen.  Nature has all kinds of answers for us.

I hear it all the time from clients, I want to have a balanced business!   The SIMPLEST formula for having a balanced business in direct sales is simply three words.

 

Want to guess what they are? You got it …

 

BOOK…  with no bookings, you have no business.

SELL…     with no sales, you have no income.

RECRUIT… with no recruits, you are lop-sided, you’re only selling, you’re not team building.

 

This is what we do in Direct Sales!  And what I love is we stick to the basics of these three areas.  Someone once said to me, “Gale, this is not brain surgery, you can do it, stick to the basics!”

 

Everyone in my Journey to Leadership Group coaching program is working a BALANCED BUSINESS.  I know this because they check in with me every Monday. I want to share some of the check-ins this week to show you how important it is to work on the three areas BOOK-SELL-RECRUIT in your business.

 

I’m blessed with the joy of working with these amazing leaders. Here are some of the check-ins they messaged me this week to show you the importance of working a balanced business of book-sell-recruit.

 

• Followed up with 10 people a day

• Reached out to past hostesses for bookings.

• Mailed out 10 catalogues and followed up.

• Had my highest personal and team sales ever.

• Feeling overwhelmed, but orders still coming in.

• Two new possible recruits, following up.

• Closing 5 Facebook parties with great success.

• Hit a Platinum Level .. YAY!

• Decided I need to change my mindset.

• Learning about success rituals and setting up.

• Signed on another new team member.

• Working on my Journey Board.

 

This is the reality of working a balanced business.  It’s these step by step activities that grow a successful balanced business. I'm so proud of these wonder women. They are DOING A GREAT JOB!!  That's what I tell them every week!
