Director Your Story & 30 Second Commercial

[akaskydebil]

In less than two weeks we are having our Fall Retreat. All of the D's and above attending are participating in a Round Robin style training this year (we get 20min each and there's 8 of us). We do get to pick our own topic and I think I have narrowed mine down to "Your Story & 30 Second Commercial" because I feel these are weaknesses for me and that's what our we're trying to do...train on a weakness in order to make it a strength. Sounds kind of backwards, I know. Anywho...

Since it is a weakness for me :cry:, I'm reaching out to all of you who I see as experts at most everything. (No pressure)

So, what's your 30 second commercial?

Your story? (if willing to share)

Any insight is greatly appreciated!!! :clap:

My Hubby (Mr. "Pampered Chef is overpriced ... you can get the same thing at Wal-Mart"), was converted at an interactive cooking show that I hosted & actually talked me into signing as a consultant that night. I signed as a hobbyist (to support my addiction to the product), but 18 months later when I decided I was ready to step up my business, I didn't have to ask a boss for a promotion or a raise, I just did it. Here I am, another 22 months later as an AD (level 5 of 9), with a team of 63 under me and LOVING my business. Last year I earned a trip to Toronto on Pampered Chef (which I took earlier this year) and this year I earned a ring ...

That's pretty much my intro that I try to remember to do at every show. I don't always fit it in & sometimes it's a modified version when I get to the recruiting side of the slide. But I pretty much tell them all that hubby talked me into being a consultant and I've just recently added the part about not having to get permission for a promotion/raise.
