I’m
happy to announce that my newest training CD is now
available:
Recruiting
101
–
Building
Your Downline to Create A Profitable, Long-Term Stamping
Business!
This
CD is the studio version of the recruiting half of my live
Advanced Marketing & Recruiting Seminar. This
is also similar to the presentation I recently delivered
by phone to Janet Wakeland's RemARKable Stampers.
The
purpose of the CD is to teach you just about everything
you need to know about the process of recruiting, and
help give you the confidence you need to make it happen!
The
following recruiting topics are covered in detail on
this CD:
- The word 'No' - You don't have to be afraid of it.
- Fear of being pushy - I'll show you a process
of recruiting that nobody, including
you, would ever think was pushy.
- Selling vs. Sharing - Gaining perspective on what
you do.
- The 3-Step Recruiting Process - I'll take you
through a detailed explanation of each step, and show you
everything you need to know about the process of recruiting.
- The Five Responses - these are the five answers
your prospect will give during each step of the process.
I'll show you how to answer each one.
- The Five Objections - these are the five fears
your prospect has that prevents them from signing up.
- Answering the Objections - I'll share a formula
which will allow you to overcome ANY objection your
prospect has.

The
Qualities of A Leader
|
In
a recent interview with Forbes magazine, Peter F.
Drucker, world-renowned management expert, shared his
thoughts on the qualities a leader should possess:
Leaders
Ask 'What Needs To Be Done" - not, "What
Do I Want To Do?" By addressing the
priorities of the business first, they create a more
productive and efficient one.
Leaders
Don't Tackle Things They Aren't Good At - they make
sure those necessities get done, but by someone who can
actually do them with skill. Not them.
Leaders
Avoid "Popularity Traps" - The pressure on
Leaders to say yes to 1,000 different things is
enormous. Many of them say yes to everything and
are quite popular because of it. Effective Leaders
are purpose-driven and know how to say 'no' to the
things that aren't critical to the vision and mission of
the business.
Leaders
Have 'Secret Offices' - A good Leader is always in
demand, and very few people respect the other demands on
the Leader's time. Leader's need to take time to
lead without distraction. This means putting
themselves in a place where nobody can reach them, and
being comfortable with that.

Emotional
Intelligence - Why
It Can Matter More Than IQ
by
Daniel
Goleman
This book, originally published in 1995,
was the first on the topic of Emotional Intelligence (EQ).
What is Emotional Intelligence?
The idea of emotional intelligence lies in a handful of
basic principles. Emotionally intelligent people have an
increased ability to marshal their emotional impulses;
they can do things like delay gratification; they are
optimistic and generally positive; they understand
easily the dynamics of a given group, and, most
important, where they fit inside that group.
A strong argument can be made that EQ is
a more important factor in building your business than
IQ. This book was the first to do just that.

Stamping
Business Q&A
What
Do
I
Do If...
I
Want My Downline to Recruit More?
|
Motivating
your downline can be difficult. The first thing
you need to understand and accept is that many in your
downline will not recruit, no matter what you do.
You need to focus on the ones who want to.
Once
you've identified who those downline are, speak to
them one-on-one, either by phone or in-person.
Help them to make a list of people they can
call. Go through the 3-step process of
recruiting with them. Run through the
conversations they're going to have with
prospects. Teach them how to answer
and overcome Objections. Support them in whatever
way you can.
You may
also find it helpful to set goals with your downline.
Ask them to commit to getting in touch with a certain
number of prospects by a certain day.
