Staying Safe at the County Fair: Tips for Meeting Potential Consultants

[Mackailey]

Well did 4 hours at the county fair got 5 'maybe' for shows 2 yes and one who is interested in becoming a consultant.. And its a man!! How do I approach this? Men do well, thats not the issue.. But for my safety should we meet in a public place? Our next meeting here is in a few weeks should I just have him meet us there? Hmmmm

Since you met him at the fair, and is a stranger to you, I think meeting in a public place is an acceptable thing to do. You should suggest meeting in a coffee bar or someplace that has free internet access, if that is possible in your area. You could sign him up online to get him registered before the end of the month, for the Roasting Pan incentive. Then go over with him the things he can do while he waits for his kit to arrive. I believe there is a document on here somewhere titled something like "What to do til your kit arrives". I would do a search and have that available to give to him. Then, of course, invite him to your next cluster meeting. Way to go on your success at the fair!

Definately meet in a public place. You do not know him, and I don't think any of us want to be seeing you on the headlines of FOX News (well in a bad way). I think the coffee bar is a great idea, oh yeah you guys don't have those in TN, LOL. Maybe meet for lunch, and it will be tax deductible. Good luck, I hoping you get your first recruit.

Hi there! Congratulations on your successful time at the county fair and getting interest from potential new consultants! It's always exciting to see men interested in becoming consultants, as they can bring a unique perspective to our team. In terms of approaching this potential consultant, it's always a good idea to prioritize your safety. Meeting in a public place is definitely a smart idea, especially if you don't know this person well yet. You could also suggest meeting at a coffee shop or other neutral location for an initial conversation to get to know each other better. Ultimately, it's up to your discretion and comfort level. I'm excited to see where this opportunity leads for you! Keep up the great work.
