6 Direct Sales Tips I Wish I Knew Before Starting My Business

6 Direct Sales Tips I Wish I Knew Before Starting My Business I was at dinner with some friends a few nights ago, and an interesting topic came up. One friend asked what advice or tip would we give our younger selves if we could. Well, that got my wheels turning as I was laying in bed that night. I don’t sleep well, like ever. My brain has a hard time shutting off, so I replayed that conversation in my head. What would I tell myself? And then that stream of inner-dialogue went to my business. What would I do if I could start over? What tips do I wish I knew before I signed up? Wow. That’s a totally loaded question. That engine in my head just went from a Geo Tracker to a freaking Ferrari! I grabbed my phone and started jotting down ideas. Holy crap! The ideas were FLYING! Once I finally got the brain to calm down, I called it a night. But I woke up with the same excitement! I spent my morning reaching out to other friends in direct sales to ask them what they wish they knew bef...

Five Tips to Avoid Facebook Jail

Five Tips to Avoid Facebook Jail Chances are that if you’re reading this article, you’ve either ended up in Facebook jail or you’re trying to avoid it. You might have ended up in Facebook jail personally or because you’re using Facebook as a platform to run your direct sales business. Regardless on what you’re using Facebook for, we all spend way too much time scrolling our news-feed. So, let me help you stay on Zuckerberg’s good side. Here are five tips to help you avoid Facebook jail. 1. Stop messaging people the same thing. I get it. You have a message that you need to get out to a lot of people. It could be that you’re holding a surprise birthday party for your significant other, that you’ve joined a direct sales company, or you hate group chat. I get the whole efficient and effective thought process to copy and paste, but friend, you’re about to get yourself marked as a spam-bot. I’ve gotten really good at telling if a message you’re sending me is personalized or somet...

TOP PHRASES THAT GET PEOPLE TO BUY

Image
Think about it from the ground up. When a brand new store is coming to a street near you, what does the process look like? First, they usually send a postcard to all the people in the area alerting them that the store is coming soon. Next, they start the construction phase. Then, once the store is built, they start stocking shelves and hiring employees. A store would not open to the public until it’s shelves are completely stocked. In the same way, you don’t want to open your brand new blog until YOUR blog is stocked. You should have at least 20-30 posts live and active BEFORE you ever set your blog to be live. Next, a store sends a follow up postcard to its community, announcing the store is now open, and usually giving them a coupon off their first purchase. When you open your business to the world, you should announce it everywhere, and have your newsletter subscribe all set up and ready to give out for free. And while you SHOULD NOT sell ANYTHING on your blog until you...

How to Create Pinterest Pins for your Direct Sales Business Who loves Pinterest as much as I do? I have spent the last few years using  Pinterest for my Online Event business . Creating my own original pins helps to  funnel  fresh eyes to my blog events and  Facebook page . Have you been creating your own pins only to see they are not getting shared? Frustrating right? My aim is to help you out. Here are 4 key things to remember when creating Pinterest pins for your direct sales business. Vertical Layout Most Pinterest users are on a mobile device and use the Pinterest app. The app favors vertical pins and populates them in the smart feed. Horizontal pins are smaller and have a lower repin rate so vertical is the way to go. Use a graphics platform like   Canva  to create awesome vertical pins. They have a Pinterest template made in the optimal dimensions for Pinterest pins. Browse the Pinterest templates and use them for inspiration ...

The Best Questions To Ask At Networking Events

The Best Questions To Ask At Networking Events If you survey a room and ask if they would rather spend the evening with a group of close friends or a group of strangers, you can almost guarantee that they would unequivocally choose to spend time with friends. Your perception of attending a networking event may be wearing a name tag, struggling to start or maintain a conversation, making mindless  small talk  and receiving business cards from people you may not have the intention of emailing or seeing again. I get it. I used to feel the same way until I learned to  network authentically . I started asking questions that made the conversation insightful and interesting and left me feeling inspired and motivated to connect. I’ve met people who have become close friends, mentors, employers and clients. I reached out to a few successful women to find out the best questions to ask at networking event...
