Rainbows Keep Falling on My Head!

Our team is growing and growing.

Why?

Because the opportunity is superb. Because the product is second to none. Because it's easy to join. Because it's YOUR business.

Welcome to Teresa, Linda, and Sarah.

Teresa had her first solo show on Friday night. Guess what? She sponsored! Her very first show was a starter show for Linda. Fantastic! Congratulations to you both!

Sarah came to a show two weeks ago and immediately thought the opportunity was too good to miss. She came to our Unit Meeting and will be having her starter show in July.

Set Goals

I recommend that you set monetary goals for yourself each month. Here are a few examples (I've assumed show averages of $500-$600):
  • I will make $500 this month. (So you need to have compensatable sales of ~$2300 - which is 4-5 shows.)
  • I will bonus this month. (So you need to have compensatable sales of ~$2800 - which is 5-6 shows.) This is my goal - WLC.
  • I will be active this month. (So you need to have compensatable sales of ~$900 - which is 2 shows.)
  • I will break a record this month (So you need to have compensatable sales of ~$15,429 - which is 26-30 shows.)
Take Action

If you do set a goal - you need to ACT to achieve it. Here are some ideas:
  • I will organise my calendar for July and August and make sure I know when I am available and when I am not.
  • I will call (not email) five people every week (one call per day) to tell them about my candle business and to see if they want to (1) see a cataolg, (2) host a show, or (3) place an order.
  • I will host a party at my house on this date (set a date - tell people - coach yourself).
  • I will contact all my past clients and ask them how they are and if they need more candles.
  • I will call the people I've met in the past 3 months who said they might want to have a show.
Set goals and take action. That's the best way to keep your candle business humming along.
