Learn How to Stay in Positive Motion 

6 Tips to Help You Stay in Positive Motion
1. Play to Win! – Do it all together!  Stay connected and talk often with the people on your direct Sales team.  That means your Upline, Downline and even people on the Sidelines. Also plug in to the Company calls and podcasts.  Playing with others will move you forward.
2. Set Goals and really try to reach them.  Keep track of your efforts.  Record ever step that you take.  
3. No negative conversations.  Shh. None!
4. Step UP! – Be accountable!  Find somebody that will check in on you and make sure that you are taking action.
5. Stay in Positive Motion!  Once you have achieved success, don’t stop.  Keep going and do it again
6. Don’t let the tough parts of the business slow you down.  If something falls apart.  Pick up the pieces and try something else.
 dream bigNumber six is where most people get stuck.  It’s easy to listen to the nay sayer when something bad happens.  Dream stealers are pretty powerful – if your willing to listen.  Dream Stealers are people that make you think that your dreams can not come true.  They make you question yourself and what you are doing.  You feel depleted after being around them for even a short amount of time.

 

Dream Believers are people that believe in you so much that they have dreams for you even before you have them for yourself. These people excite you and you learn new things just being around them a short amount of time.

So, what are the odds that any one of us will make our Dreams a Reality? Working from home sounds easy, but the reality is hours of time, hard work, persistence through adversity, and effort. It’s a lot of ups and downs.What makes people want to keep on with building their business? It could be the $ but for most of us it’s the reward and satisfaction of seeing people like ourselves, pull themselves up and achieve their dreams too! Living your dream means that you get to help others live their dreams!

 
Be a Dream Believer and watch your dreams come true!  May all Your Dreams come true!!!

NUMBER 3:  Don’t wait for the phone to ring. You have to Make Calls.  Make many calls.  The more the better.  No calls = not a lot of new bushiness. Many calls = lots of new business.  🙂

Yes, cold calling does require some warm fuzzy thoughts.  You’ve got to be strong and ready for some possible rejection, but don’t let the fear of failure scare you away from this necessary business step.  Just do it.  The reality is, most calls will result in a new business connection for you.  You will be making friends in the industry.  Think of it as just an another way to network.  Start by searching the internet for people in Direct Sales that might be interested in what you’ve got.  Try staring with local people.

Once you’ve got a few contacts, try theses example scripts to get yoo started:

Script 1

Hey [first name],

I saw that you are advertising online and I wanted to reach out and learn more about your business.

Wow, that’s great, because [explain how FSR relates to them or how your current company complements what they are already doing.].

Let me show you what I mean.

–   Benefit/Feature 1

–   Benefit/Feature 2

–   Benefit/Feature 3

Do you thing something like this would interest you?

Script 2

  1. Introduce yourself

Hello, this is ____________ .

  1. Get the prospect’s attention

How are you today?

Great!

  1. State your reason for calling

Well, we have not spoken before, but I am a Direct Sales Rep, like you.  I am with ______ and I was hoping that we could network a little bit and share some business tip that seem to be working.

  1. Ask need probing questions

How are you currently growing your business?

Great! Well, let me share something that I found that’s helping me grow my business. Have you considered adding some online advertising to your marketing mix?

FindSalesRep offers one of the most effective marketing tools available for Direct sales Reps like us. It allows customers to access your business information online and on the go and allows you to connect with your customers with special deals and updates – bringing more customers in to your business. Does this sound like something you’d be interested in? Great!

  1. Get the appointment

How would you feel if I created something for you, to show you how FindSalesRep could work for you? Is that something you’d be interested in? Great! I will be sure to include examples that other businesses like ours have had great success with.

Expect an email in the next couple days and I will follow up with you over the phone after that.

Thank you for networking with me.  Let’s keep in touch.

Then, send them your link to the FSR blog and follow up with a phone call to see  if they have any questions.  The basic rule of thumb is to follow up with 3 emails and 3 calls in 3 days and then again wit 1 email and 1 call in 3 weeks and 3 months later.

How to handle any negative response:

People generally don’t say no outright. They will give a response to explain why they are saying no.  Here are a few example that can help you turn those negatives into positives with LOCAL contacts:

No thanks, I’m happy with what I have

It’s great that you have ____. I recently spoke with another ____ rep and your company has a lot to offer. You know something, we should get together. How about next Thursday at 1pm.

I’m not interested

Well Mr. ____, a lot of reps from from your company had the same reaction you did when I first called — before they had a chance to see how FindSalesRep will benefit there business. We should get together. How about next Thursday at 1pm.

I’m too busy

______, the only reason I was calling was to set an appointment. Would next Thursday at 1pm be okay?

Send me some more info

Okay, great and then we should just get together? How about next Thursday at 1pm?

Any other response

Well that’s okay; let’s get together anyway.

Leaving a message

Always leave a friendly message.  Let them know that you are interested in networking, collaborating and sharing ideas.

These scripts will also work for your primary business.  When calling about your primary business, your goal is referral exchange.  Let them right away that you are trying to take their focus away from what they are already working to build.  Then ask if they would be interested in collaborating and exchanging referrals.  Tell them that you will send people with an interest in what they are doing if they will consider doing the same for you.

*NOTE:  When I (Gabby) was with one of the most poplar Direct Sales companies and became one of the top recruiters in the world, this is how I made some of my closest friends in direct sales and how I attracted one of my biggest builders to join my team.

People are attracted to great leadership.  

So, be a great leader.  Be the kind of leader that you would like to work with.

REMEMBER, that we want to hear from you.  Write us back in the comments below and let us know how these tips worked for you.

Get Found and Prosper!
