I would love to buy these but can't afford it right now. Hoping that my darling fiance will let me use some of our wedding money to buy them.... :)
 
Tell your DF that they will buy themselves back with the increase in your business! I don't have them, but I am sure that anyone else on this thread that does have them would agree!!
 
yeah... good thinking! You know back when I was a consultant before I think that I had these on cassette...but when I got divorced I have no idea where they went... dang it!
 
I just ordered the Power Hour CD... I think I'm addicted! She also has afree newsletter you can sign up for, too!
 
Can I sign up for the newsletter without buying anything?
 
Yep! I just signed up.....
 
Thanks! I off to there right now!
 
What is the website? I thought it was posted on this thead earlier, but I didn't see it!
 
I tried that before I posted, but it says "under construction". Is that what you guys get too?
 
Sorry Gillian...I had the wrong address so I edited my last post. It was just down for a few minutes but it came back up for me.
 
Got it, thanks!
 
I never noticed the newsletter option before today! I was thrilled to see it!
 
How often does the newsletter get sent? Does anyone know?
 
My budget is very tight - I got started with PC to do fundraisers for cancer research and give my commission on fundraisers to the participants - WHen I went to the training meeting last night I asked my director if she had any of Belinda's materials and sure enough she had several so I am borrowing them to listen to - I am on CD #2 already

They are great!!
 
I was talking to my director about more training and we are going to do exclusive training for those of us that want more and we are going to get together to listen and talk about the Step into Success CDs... I would highly suggest this for anyone, as I know when my director and I listened to the pour hour cd together we had tons of ideas that we keps bouncing and piggy-backing off one another... it was way fun and way useful!
 
I think it is good to let your directors know you want and need more training - Some directors can micro-manage and some want you to let them know when you want more training.
 
So, I got the Power Hour Package and listened to that! WOW!!! I am sooo hooked on this and it has made such a huge difference already! What's next?
 
Is there a way to order this if we didn't get it at Conference? I've been hearing such wonderful things about it that it might be something I want to invest in.
 
Oh my gosh - I just go a Business is great pin here for way less that she charges on her website
 
I gave up trying to find one and just bought it. Oh well...

Told you so :D
I have wondered about her Hostess Coaching Package....but my director says the one I should get next is "Building A Million Dollar Business" (or something like that).....I might try completely memorizing what I have first before getting that one!;)
Since implementing the Power Hour, and implementing her ideas on booking and recruiting, I have signed one consultant, and have 3 more hosts interested...I am completely booked for November, and most of what I want for Dec., and I am feeling more confident about my own organizational skills, and my ability to book and recruit!
I am so totally sold on Belinda!

Belinda's newsletter is a weekly thing. You'll get one every week. I really enjoy reading her newsletter.

I have memorized her opening, recruuting talk, booking talk, and drawing slip thing. My 45 minute commute comes in handy! I'm not sure which I want to get next. I may go with the million dollar business. I think I do a decent job with host coaching. I mean, I always want to improve, but I also want to build a sales team, too. What's a girl to do?
 
Her products are pretty expensive so I can probably only get one thing. What would you suggest? I really want more shows & recruits. My director gave us folders with sheets in them for the power hour. Her seminar on the No Business Like Show Business sounds really great but the only one is in Oregon. What all do you have that you have gotten so many shows & recruits from it? Thanks!
 
I would start with the original SUTS set. It gives you a good foundation.
 
Anne, is that the Step into Success with the 6 cd's for $75? It says it covers the basics of booking, selling & recruiting. Sounds like just what I need!
 
yes, that's it. You could save money if you get the Pwer Pack Set. WHATEVER YOU BUY IT WILL MAKE A HUGE IMPACT!
