I need to check my notes because I don't remember this but LOVE this idea!!! I can talk to myself on the way home from work and then check it as well and see if I sound and boring as I think I do! (and I get to talk to myself in a productive way!!! YAY!!!)

OHIO System-
O-only
H-Handle-
I-it
O-once

I have not heard of it as OHIO but I have heard only touch (handle) it once and definitely need to live by it. Maybe live would be less cluttered. I glad you posted this and will start this with the 21 days makes a habit and hopefully as I do it clutter will be gone.

Thank you so much for your tips!!
Kim

Please expand on OHIO and RSVP mostly Thanks.

I took the workshop from Amy Neal.....

The OHIO SYSTEM= she was talking about organizing your office and dealing with clutter... hence

O= ONLY
H= HANDLE
I= IT
O=ONCE


RSVP= She was talking about how to deal with recuirt/booking leads etc... and how to handle things on a daily biases...

R= RECURITMENT OR LEADS/SHOWS/ HANDLE PEOPLE BEFORE YOU HANDLE PAPER WORK
S=SALES= BOOKINGS (EARNING MONEY)
V= VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGES= VOICE MAIL, ETC
P= PERFORMERS= YOUR CLUSTER THAT YOUR BUILDING WITH YOUR TEAM, REWARDS....

I used caps to bold what I was referring too!!! I Hope that helps... other wise you can email me... and I can look back through my notes again!!

 

[mommyhugz1978]

The contact with confidence/ She was talking about Keys to contact with confidence!! I hope that helps!! No problem... I haven't typed all my notes but I will be and have them posted soon on here!!!

Three of my top tips from Lyn Conway

It's okay to feel fear; just don't act on it.

Never assume people will initiate contact. Nine times out of ten the other person is shyer than you.

Don't try to maneuver the conversation. Don't be in a rush to get to the PC stuff. Be genuinely interested in the other person. Bring up PC when it's natural and appropriate.

I really got all of that from Lynn as well.

Another thing is this: "IT'S NOT ABOUT ME!"
As in:
Focus on THEM and becoming their friend...not thinking ahead in your brain about how quickly you can bring up PC....as well as this:
If they don't want to talk to me- that's THEM. Maybe they are shyer than me, maybe they had a crappy day, maybe someone in DS has burned them, whatever....but they are not rejecting ME.

That is SO true! And actually, the older I get the MORE exciting each one is!


OOPS! Sorry for the hijack. ...tip: hug your baby for me! (well it's not really a tip but I can't hug Sam so someone needs to be hugged!)

I have a problem with feeling pushy. My "aha" moment this conference was when Lyn Conway reiterated that the definition of pushy is "acting in an aggressive manner." That's not what I do. So I'm not pushy, and it's OK to call people.
