Getting Things Kicked in to Gear Again!

[apamperedone]

I need to get things kicked into gear again! I use to do 8 shows a month and now I have 2 for this month and 1 for next month. I don't know what has gone wrong or where it went wrong. I know the economy is AWFUL in this area. We just had 2 more large shops close down. Any suggestions?

Do you have friends/family in other towns/states? See if they would be willing to do catalog shows for you. I had 3 do catalog shows for me in November while I was on "maternity" leave during my last month of pregnancy. It really worked well for me. Other than that, just really get your name our there and try contacting new people. Go to nearby towns if you need to and see about contacting people there. Good luck!

Get on the phone and CALL people!

Go through your receipts or do a search on PP to see who ordered cookware and stoneware. Call those people and let them know it's the host specials and get them to book.

Plan an Open house (maybe a Mystery Host show and give away the host benefits) for late Feb early March to introduce the new products.

Send a newsletter to all of your contacts.

Call your favorite hosts and get them to book - see if they have a friend who would be interested.

Do you have any friends who are consultants for another company? Get together with them and do a combined Open House - you can benefit from each other's guests.

Get on the phone, it really does work!

that's all I can think of for now.....

Hi there! I completely understand your frustration and concern about the decrease in your shows. The current economic situation can definitely have an impact on our businesses, but don't worry, there are still ways to kick things into gear again!First, I would recommend reaching out to your existing customers and offering some special deals or promotions to encourage them to host a show or place an order. You can also try reaching out to new potential customers through social media or hosting a booth at local events or fairs.Another idea is to team up with other consultants in your area and co-host a big event or party. This can bring in a larger crowd and increase your chances of getting more bookings.Additionally, consider expanding your reach by offering virtual parties or online ordering options. This can help you reach customers outside of your immediate area.Lastly, don't forget to utilize the resources and support from your upline and fellow consultants. They may have some great ideas and strategies that have worked for them.Don't get discouraged, stay positive and keep pushing forward. I have no doubt that you will get those numbers back up in no time! Best of luck to you.
