I want to share some words I have been using that I thin khave made a HUGE recruiting difference for me.
I recently listened to a training tape in which someone was talking abuot "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
Two years ago (2006) I was top recruiter in my AD's downline. I had a shpeil I was using during my intro. It worked. It worked well.
Then I got lazy and stopped doing it. After a few months I realized I wasn't really recruiting all of a sudden. Hmm...what's wrong with me? Don't they like me? Am I making the job look too hard? No dummy...you'd stopped doing what worked.
So I was listening to this CD and when she said "if it ain't broke..." I suddenly realized that I'd had something that was working...and I stopped doing it!!
So on May 23 I started doing it again....my shpeil. And since May 23rd, I have added 4 new personal recruits!!
Here's the gist of what I say:
"My name is Carolyn and I have been with PC for just under 5 years. (then I go into "my story"...why I signed, what I was afraid of, what I found, how it has changed my life, what I look forward to) I don't know many of you ladies...and I certainly don't know what goes on behind your closed doors. I don't know who cried this morning when you dropped your baby off at daycare, who was up all night trying to figure out how to scrape together this month's mortgage payment, who hates thier boss, who desperately needs a vacation, or who is simply looking for something fun to do a few nights a month to get out of the house...but I do know that PC changed my life and I would feel like a real selfish jerk if I didn't a least offer you the opportunity...so if you identified with anything I just mentioned and you'd like more information...just see me after my demo and I'll give you some info you can take home and mull over. Now...let's get started cooking!!"
I make eye contact with people as I am doing this shpeil.
So many people identify with those situations...try it!!

Carolyn,
Those are SO great! Thanks for sharing!! I try to say something LIKE that throughout my demo/presentation but it's never as clear and concise as that. And that's probably the best time to do that-at the beginning. Then maybe mention again at the end by saying something like "Hey, remember when I gave those examples of people who may totally LOVE doing PC, if you're curious and would like some information, you can mark it off on this drawing slip, etc". Great! I love it and can't wait to maybe even put this on a notecard so I remember how nicely to say it.
Wow, FOUR recruits since May 23rd!! That's awesome!

...nevermind on the new recruit for righ tnow. She called me this morning and asked that I hold off on ordering her kit 'til the beginning of July since she's going to be travelling mid-June through early-July and won't have enough time to get her 4 shows in during her first 30 days if we order her kit today.
She is still totally pumped about sighing - just wants the timing to be roght so that she can hit the ground running.
So, we'll celebrate this one on July 1st!

Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to have "Signed Another but Lost a Check"?
This phrase typically refers to a situation in direct sales, such as with Pampered Chef, where a consultant has successfully signed a new customer or host but has lost the commission check associated with that sale. It can be frustrating as it affects earnings and tracking sales performance.
What should I do if I lost a commission check?
If you lose a commission check, the first step is to contact your direct sales company’s support team. They can guide you through the process of reporting the lost check and may issue a stop payment or a replacement check, depending on their policies.
Can I still receive my commission if I lost the check?
Yes, you can still receive your commission. Most direct sales companies have procedures in place for lost checks. Once you report the loss, they will typically verify your sales and issue a replacement check if necessary.
How can I prevent losing my commission checks in the future?
To prevent losing commission checks, consider setting up direct deposit if your company offers it. Additionally, keep a record of all transactions and checks received, and store physical checks in a secure location until you can deposit them.
What should I do if my customer claims they never received their order?
If a customer claims they never received their order, first verify the shipping details and tracking information. If the order was indeed lost in transit, you should work with your company’s customer service to resolve the issue, which may involve resending the order or providing a refund.
