How often do you keep in touch with your downline? I am in a precarious postition, and I wanted others thoughts.
 
I try to do it once a week, especially in the beginning. Once they know what they are doing and are confident enough then I limit it to once or twice a month.

If they are wanting to step up their business to the next level, then it is definately once a week.
 
I try and e-mail and check in at least once a week. If they are having troubles with anything, then I can work with them. I always ask when their shows are for the month so that I can send them a good luck e-mail and then check in after the show to see how it went for them. Once they get established, I will probably cut back...but I know that I like being checked in on so I'm hoping that my gals do too!
 
Once a week sometimes more it just depends on when they're shows are and if I think they need extra encouragement. They seem to really appreciate it. I truly believe that I have developed a relationship with them and we are just friends talking, even though it is about the business.
 
We schedule weekly calls and many emails are exchanged in between.
 
I touch base at least weekly eithe rby email and/or phone...whether or not they respondis up to them. I try to follow their lead and work with them in the fashion that is most comfortable to them -- those who prefer phone, I spend more phone time with -- those who prefer email, I spend more email time with...

What's your precarious position?
