At the beginning of this month I was in month 3 of relinquishment :yuck: (again...ugh) and only had one active person. I called upon my inactives to submit $200 to help people get their holiday gifts and stuff. I was able to get an inactive person (a Unit Leader for Creative Memories, so she understands :love0010:) to submit $300. I helped another inactive get to $200 because I had a catalog show that only got to $100. I was floating...we hit the $4000 last week and I still have two shows to submit - great month for sales :money:! Then, I had an extra catalog show (people calling me with random orders :D) that I put together with some orders from another gal who wanted to sign but needed the kit credit. We submitted that this morning along with her agreement. I then got a HO lead who was interested in signing. She signed tonight! I have my 5 active!!!!!!!!:party::party::party:

Love these smilies!
 
Whoa, that is incredible Kate! Way to go!!!!

No rest, but no anxiety either!!!
 
Amen to that, I say!
I had a similar situation in September and it is just a blur now! I cannot believe all the stress I went through and then had to jump into October like nothing had happened!
 
great job!! That is sure to make your holiday season a little brighter!!

EVEN BETTER....I had a show tonight that I had coached to close tonight in case I was close to a SAT level. I submitted about $800 in October sales at the beginning of November to help with the padding of cluster sales - again, incase we were close. So, tonight's show was $850 with 13 people there, one recruit lead and ONE booking - go figure...and it was the host rebooking. Anyhoo, that put me easily through Level 3 of SAT AND.....drumroll......over $4000 in personal sales for the first time!!!And I held onto a catalog show so I already have $450 in orders for December! It won't count towards the incentives, but it will towards my commission! I figured since I am already at the highest commission rate for November, why not start off December with some sales.

It gets better!!! We had our Cluster Meeting tonight and my director recognized the heck out of me!!! She said I had a personal best and the highest amount of tickets (for our drawing) and had me talk about how this has changed my outlook. She was so proud of me! Then, I WON!!! We usually have an on time drawing that you can win and if you had recruited in the past month, you win cash. It starts at $5 and increases $5 each month until someone wins or it gets to $50, then it goes back to $5. I have won the on time drawing before, but had not recruited. So, I won that ($10) AND our prize drawing for the 8qt SS bowl!!!Just had to brag :D
 
That's so cool, Kate!! Congratulations!!:)
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What strategies can I use to engage inactive reps in my direct sales team?

To engage inactive reps, consider reaching out with personalized messages to understand their challenges and motivations. Host virtual meetings or training sessions to reignite their interest and provide them with new tools or resources. Offering incentives or recognition for re-engagement can also be effective in motivating them to become active again.

How can I effectively promote sign-ups during Month 3?

To promote sign-ups, create excitement around your products and the benefits of joining your team. Utilize social media to share success stories and testimonials from current reps. Offer limited-time promotions or bonuses for new sign-ups, and host informational sessions where potential recruits can learn about the opportunities available with your team.

What types of incentives work best for reactivating inactive reps?

Incentives that work well include exclusive discounts on products, bonus commissions for sales made within a certain timeframe, or recognition in team meetings. Additionally, offering a small gift or a free product for re-engaging can motivate inactive reps to jump back in and start selling again.

How can I track the progress of my efforts to boost sales with inactive reps?

Tracking progress can be done through regular check-ins with inactive reps, monitoring their sales activity, and analyzing engagement metrics from your outreach efforts. Utilize tools like spreadsheets or customer relationship management (CRM) software to keep track of interactions and sales performance, allowing you to adjust your strategies as needed.

What are some common challenges faced when trying to sign up new reps?

Common challenges include overcoming objections from potential recruits, such as concerns about time commitment or financial investment. Additionally, competition from other direct sales companies can make it difficult to attract new reps. Providing clear information about the benefits and support available can help address these challenges and encourage sign-ups.
