Step One: Recruiting Party Plan / MLM Reps

STEP ONE:

Obviously people need to know about your and your business and the best way to do this is to have an event or home party. Calling people out of the blue is a time-waster and many resent it (wouldn't you?).

You need to get warm leads...leads that know your face.

The best way to do this is to get in front of folks, especially those interested in what you've got. The way home party plans have operated for years is to recruit at parties.

This is great except for one thing: You're really there to make your money. You've put in the time, effort and expense to arrange the party, follow up, get your inventory/samples/brochures, etc. and be there smiling and ready to present. Right?

So should you take time away from your selling time to do this? Of course not.

So how do you make both work?

You can either finish your party and let everyone know you are holding a short Career Preview
right after and if they are interested, they can stay and learn how much they can earn with you.

Or...you can schedule meetings and calls for another time.

Either could work, but you should play around to see what feels best for you and what seems to work the best.

If you take time away from your sale period, you will likely lose out on sales = less hard cash in  your pocket. By working a "Career" option at another time, you'll make the most of your sales time and still get your recruiting efforts in.

Regardless, what's the ONE thing to do after your shows?

Follow up! It's what is most forgotten and a simple follow up call or email can go far in getting you more order, referrals and a great rep as a stellar seller!

How to Recruit More Home Party Plan Reps in the Slow Economy

Do those ANTs go through your head about your business?

Automatic Negative Thoughts is what they are, and they are killers!

You know the ones:

If I were smarter/richer/more energetic, I'd be successful!
If I could talk to people easier/be fearless/network more, I'd have a big team/make more money/be set for life...

We all have them.

They prey on our brains.

However, keep in mind...despite this economy,  it can be tough to get bookings, and in this world right now, people are not apt to want to pull our their wallets and buy non-necessities (no matter how great you feel your products are). Things that don't put food on the table aren't really bouncing around in a happy fashion.

And yet, especially in a sluggish, insecure, bummer economy, we need our little businesses and the world needs what you have to offer! Why? Because not only does it keep us hopeful and alight, it keeps everyone else the same.


For example, if you have a party and bring joy and fun to women who participate for two hours, teach them something, show them something new, it helps to lift everyone out of the doldrums of life. And...if you can pass that along with the chance for them to do it for others...well, imagine the happiness just one little party can possibly bring overall!

When you're feeling down about your business and its potential, remember this: You bring fun, happiness and positivity to the world...even if it's only a few people at a time. Get THAT point across at your parties and you'll not enjoy it more yourself, you'll see a rise in recruiting.

We all want to make ourselves happy and bring happiness to others (or at least, we should). This is one way you can put it into practice right now.
