Time is precious. So, if you want to achieve your BIG BRILIIANT yearly goal which I ask you to do in my Direct Sales Planner system, you need to work on actions to get the needle-moving work done.
My coaching clients in the Journey to Leadership coaching program
know that “needle-moving” actions are things that move your business forward every day. They message me if they’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed and we work through the obstacles and find what actions will move the needle in their business.
I believe ROUTINES are the way to help you move the needle forward. I have a number of routines I’ve developed and share with my clients, but there are THREE to think about as we head into spring.
- A Routine to Manage your Time! Time is the number one universal struggle for direct sellers. I hear this from coaching clients in the US, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand every
week! There is only ONE WAY to manage your time and that’s to do my Sunday Weekly Planning routine. When you sign up for my coaching, the first thing I do is take you through my Time Management Exercise where I show you how to find 5 or more three-hour blocks of time every week. Then, we break down those 3-hour time blocks into the actions you want to accomplish for each week. These are the actions that move the needle forward to sell more,
book more or recruit more team members. It’s a routine of ONE HOUR a week on Sundays that will have the biggest impact on managing your time.
- A Routine to Grow your Team. Whether you’ve just started, or you’re a top level leader, if you want to grow a successful direct sales business, you have to put your efforts into sharing your opportunity every
week. How do we put this into a routine that moves the needle?
-
- Learn how to discover prospects for your business
- Learn how to share your opportunity
- Schedule recruiting conversations every week
I want you to remember this. Right now, you might be focused getting bookings, or hitting a sales goal every month, but, it’s the recruiting part of your business that will move the needle forward to help you GROW! I find too many people procrastinate and don’t bother to learn the steps and
skills to recruiting. Once you nail this and create a ROUTINE to share your opportunity every week, it will be the biggest GAME CHANGER to grow your business. Again there’s a whole MODULE in our Journey to Leadership program that helps you develop this routine.
- A Self-Development Routine. This is one area right now that I feel is being neglected by many. Mostly because of the way COVID has changed our lives, and because so many are now working from home, it’s this
routine that gets pushed off. This is ONE routine that I suggest you implement in just 15 minutes every day. My personal self-development routine is to read 10 pages every morning. My latest self-development read, “Playing Big” by Tara Mohr has helped me learn how to move the needle for many coaching
clients. Maybe you’d prefer to watch a training for 15 minutes, but set aside the time and focus on 15 minutes every day. I get through many books because I’ve developed this routine. This is the ONE routine where you’re investing in YOU! When you do this, you are moving the needle forward in understanding how to improve your sales, work more diligently with hostesses and of course, lead your team.
What is increasingly important is not to fall into procrastination. Schedule everything in your calendar and do the needle-moving work as a ROUTINE! Right now, look at your calendar and see if any of these routines are scheduled next week.
- Sunday Planning scheduled at 4pm every week
- Meeting with prospects every week every Tuesday.
- Reading 10 pages every day at 4:30 am.
Your goals matter and implementing tiny ROUTINES can change your whole outlook because you know these tiny steps add up and bring in the results you want.
