I just finished listening to this great call! I'm not even sure where it originated, but the info was passed along by my hospitality director. The first speaker is Michael Reeves, who sold (are you sitting down?) 71 bakers in MARCH, yep, in one month! This call is awesome!
218-339-3699, access code 121946#
It's a recorded call though, so, I'd act quickly if you want to listen. Oh, and it's a pretty long one. Michael talks first though, and you can fast forward if you have to hang up and go back on (like I did).
Enjoy!
 
That doesn't surprise me. If he is who I think he is, he was at the regional training I went to in February. When asked how many shows folks had in March, he said he had 21. He does it full time.But thanks for the info!

That's over $4500 in bakers alone! If he did 21 shows in March, that's still 3-4 bakers per show. Thanks for sharing...will listen to the call later today. :)
 
Is it possible to download to an MP3 player?

Wow that's amazing! How long is the call? I will definitely listen to it!
 
I'm listening to it now - very good info. It's long though - been going for 1 hour 20 mins so far....
 
I'm listening right now as well. It's really good info! :) Thanks for sharing this!
 
I'm on the call now! This guy is amazing!

My director listened today and one of her director friends had a great idea. Instead of the 10% off, which does nothing for our sales, she's going to give the pocket thermometer free when they buy the sets. That way, it's the same amount of $ (or less if we put it on the host order) for us, but it ups our sales too.

I like that idea because I always talk about how it's very important to check the temp of your meat instead of going by the amount of time it cooks.
 
Such great ideas! Where would I be without CS! :)I also liked the segment about using PostCalls.
 
Wow. I love the idea of the Sets! That probably is a great way to increase show averages. I've already forwarded this call to my upline and my hospitality cluster. I'll have to finish listening to the call later. Good stuff!

Can you share your flyer when done? I'd love to give this a try as bookings are slim pickings these days!

You did a great job! I haven't been able to listen all the way through the call yet - I tried, but it's impossible with a 4 yr old...plan on finishing tonight after he's in bed!
 
I listened during nap time, but I kept having to pause it to make notes. I've copied down the wording on the post calls, invites, I'll type it up later and post it.
