Reap More Recruits with the Seed Story

The Party Plan Seed Story

Last week's issue discussed the
concept that planting seeds while an
important
first step in your business, is just that - the first
step.
It's not the only step. If you missed that issue,
visit the
archives of this newsletter (Click-Through Tracking page.

Here is a fun way to plant seeds
and give
them their first drink of water when you're at a
party
presentation. Purchase packets of seeds to go
along
with the story. If you can't find all the kinds of
seeds,
use those you are able to locate and then do
the
TWIST; create some ideas of your own.
On each
packet, place a label with your name, phone,
and this
message, "These seeds are the beginning of a
bounteous, beautiful business." After you
plant
these seeds in the minds of the guests,
determine
which guest(s) is/are the most thirsty for
more
business nutrition and give her a packet of
seeds.
Then...continue to nourish her curiosity and
interest.

Do you feel like you've been
SQUASHED
in your current position?

Does your supervisor/boss SNAP at you like a
DRAGON?

Then, LETTUCE visit for a minute because I've
BEAN
where you are and know that you MUSTARD
things
around (this is where you briefly explain how
you are
the one in control of your work, schedule, and
income).

I know it's a bit CORNy, but PEAS listen and
don't
TURNIP your nose or your minds to what I can
share
with you.

After all, you might find yourself lucky and
green, like
the BELLS OF IRELAND.

This Seed Story is a fun, creative way to plant the seeds of your business. It helps you to engage your audience and draw them in with a story that they can relate to. You can also use it to take the conversation further by asking the guests about their own experiences with their current job and how they feel about it. This will help you to identify potential recruits and gather more information about them so you can tailor your presentation accordingly.

Wow, what a creative and fun way to introduce potential recruits to your business! I love the idea of using different types of seeds to represent the different possibilities and opportunities in your business. Plus, adding your contact information and a catchy message on the seed packets is a great way to keep your business top of mind for guests after the party is over. This is definitely a unique and memorable approach to recruiting. Thanks for sharing, Christie!
