Can I reach my sales goals while on maternity leave?

[buckeyefan08]

I am posting my goal for the week b/c all of you are so successful and I want to try to run with the crowd!
My goal for the week is to pass out all of my mini catalogs (10)
and to talk to one person about the bus. opp. ( i have someone in mind, now for the courage!)
I know these goals seem meager but I am supposed to be on "maternity leave" my recruiter keeps telling me I am aloowed to slow down but I would really like to get a show put together for April. That way I will not have gone even one month without sales.

PLEASE HOLD ME TO IT!!!
Thanks for the motivation!

There is a thread under Business called 321 accountability that you may want to post this under as well...

Lisa, I will hold you accountable, if you hold me accoutable. I want to become a Future Director by conference, but I first need to get my bookings up and not be afraid to make phone calls and just ask. PM or email me if you want to do this together. :chef:

You know what has really helped me with phone courage? writing down what I plan to say, including different scenarios. Sounds silly, but it has helped me call over 20 leads and I got 8 bookings from it.

Great tip Jackie! Also, great job!

Lisa, you could also listen to the Phone Courage mp3 that is on Consultant Corner~ Online training center. It is so worth listening to. :chef:

Ok, sounds good! I'll do it after the kids are in bed!

Oh, thanks from me, too, for the tips... I started in October, and I am just now getting up the courage to make calls, and the ones I just made were TERRIBLE. I would like to jump on the I'll hold you accountable if you hold me accountable train, too, especially if practice will make these calls less awkward!

I just have to take a moment and say, WOW!! Lisa, you just had a baby, and have a 4 and 2 year old, and you are worried about getting out catalogs??? Good for you!! That would be the last thing on my mind! I can't imagine a new baby in the house with my 4 and 2 year olds!

Thanks Sarah! I know it's crazy but being home all the time helps. Having three kids that young I'm staying at home with them so I try to stay on task. Also with kids that young you are forced to get back on your feet quickly, I never thought I'd feel ok this quick having a c-section. I was scared to death b/c I had the other two naturally. Sometimes your body suprises you I guess!
