hi,

I have someone who will sign either tonight or perhaps over the weekend. She is 3 hours away from me. If I can't meet with her in person, do you have any suggestions about what to make sure to cover? She's already made the decision to join and has her payment ready. She is a lead from my pharmacist.

Thanks for your question, Trish. Here are a few things to make sure you cover when signing up someone remotely: 1. Make sure they understand the details of the compensation plan and how they will be paid. 2. Ensure they have all the necessary paperwork such as any forms or contracts they need to sign in order to become an official consultant. 3. Explain the process of how they will receive their products and orders. 4. Go over any customer service policies that they need to know. 5. Provide them with training materials (such as a PDF or video) so they can learn more about the company and the product. 6. Make sure they are aware of any resources, such as social media groups, that they can access for further support. 7. Provide them with contact information for customer service/technical support should they need it. 8. Give them a brief overview of the marketplace and how they can find success as an independent consultant. 9. Offer them any additional tips on how to promote and grow their business. I hope this helps! Good luck signing up your new lead!
