Improve Group....Starting in the Oklahoma City area

What area of your business are you currently working on improving?

It's a great question, and a great topic. One of the truest things about direct sales is that if you aren't intentional about your business, nothing will ever happen.

I hear people say all the time that they want to be better at booking parties or recruiting or meeting new people, but when I ask them what they're doing to make those things happen, they say "I'm trying." There is a big difference between trying and doing.

One of the ways we want to help you "do" more for your business is by helping you improve specific areas of your business.

Here are some tips for improving your business:

1. Decide on a specific area of your business that you want to improve upon each month and write it down! 
2. Pick 3 tasks that you believe will help you improve that area of your business. 
3. Align your tasks to your calendar. Take the 3 tasks you decided on, and schedule the time to make them happen. 
4. Find an accountability partner. This might be the most important step. Find someone you can check in with monthly to share the progress you're making and set new goals with. 

Another way we're hoping to help you improve your business is by hosting a monthly Improve Group. 

If you're local to the Oklahoma City area, we hope you'll join us. If you're not, we hope you'll start your own Improve Group in your area. 

To find out the details about our Improve Group, watch this short video. 

Our first Improve Group will meet on Tuesday, October 27th at 10:00 am at Panera Bread near Mercy Hospital.

4. Personalizing Your Personal Website:
Your personal website will help you to -- promote your business, collect online orders, annouce your events and recruit new consultants.

Do you have a PERSONAL picture of yourself???

What about a PERSONAL story???

We all have a story -- simple or complex, short or long -- SHARE IT!! Whether you joined yesterday or 5 years ago...YOU have a story. Make it PERSONAL.

5. So -- if you don't have a picture of YOURSELF and a personal story on your PWS, that's your goal for the next 24 hours. DO IT. If it's already done -- update it, freshen it up.

Log in to your workstation >> click on ACCOUNT >> EDIT PWS on the right under PERSONAL WEBSITE

6. Moving on! Grab a paper and pen -- remember we are taking it BACK 2 BASICS. How many of you have made your list of 100? When was the last time you updated it?

7. It's amazing how many people you actually know. Write down the names that come to mind as you read each category. In no time at all you will have a great start for potential customers, hostesses & recruits. It really works! Be creative! You really do know more people than you think. Make an extensive LIST OF 100 names that will serve you well as you grow your Scentsy business.

10. Challenge: pick a date and get your Re-Launch party in the books!! I'm going to give you several fun tips on hosting a SUCCESSFUL re-launch/grand opening/customer appreciation party! Once you have your date in the books, post below!

11. Tips for a fun, successful RE-LAUNCH party! 

*Invite everyone! It's a celebration...be excited! The more people to share in your excitement, the better.

*Hold it in your home. If that's not possible, as a close friend or family member to host it for you or find a local venue...church, library, community center.

*Be creative with your invitations. Use festive graphics, colored paper, etc.

*Don't be so creative that you forget the important details such as when, where, and what time to arrive and a RSVP so you know how many to plan for.

*Promise food, lots of fun and freebies (samples) to increase acceptance and hold true! Especially the FUN part 

*Ask a friend to help you with refreshments so that you can focus of being a wonderful hostess.

12. Theme parties are my FAVORITE!!!!! and guests love them as well. Here are a few ideas...

*An appreciation party for customers and hosts to build loyalty and generate more business

*A mystery hostess party -- every guests can earn chances to be entered into the drawing to earn the hostess benefits (arrive on time, RSVP, bring an uninvited adult guest, bring an outside order, for each $10 in sales, booking a party, etc)

*A party crasher party is fun-- guests are encouraged to bring a friend to CRASH THE PARTY

*Pool party, sunset party, beach party, backyard BBQ, ballpark party

*St. Patrick's Day (I just did this -- had 16 guests and a fabulous party!! It turned out awesome-- I encouraged guests to wear green, bring a friend, bring an outside order -- and I did a Mystery Hostess and one of the guests earned all the free and half price hostess benefits. FUN, FUN!!), Mother's Day, 4th of July, Halloween, Spring Fling, Summer Fun, Open House 

13. Let's brainstorm...what kind of themes can YOU think of??? What theme parties have you ever hosted? What kind of theme party are you going to do?

14. Questions? Comments?
