TEAM ACTIVITIES FOR THE WEEK!

It's crunch time for finalizing everything for our LEADERSHIP RETREAT this weekend in Baltimore, so while I have a moment, I wanted to share a brief update with our week's activities:

1. If you can attend the RETREAT, please do because it will be vitally important to your business and our collective success.  
2. Invite all new business partners to participate in tomorrow night's NEW ENTREPRENEURS CALL at 8pm ET. 712-432-8904, code 47685#.
3. Invite your guests to join you on the Opportunity Call at 9pm ET.  712-432-8904, code 47685#. 
4. Many of us will be travelling on Thursday for the Retreat and I'm certain the evening will be hectic so I'm asking for a volunteer to facilitate the call and conduct a training on any topic you choose.  I will do my best to be on the call, but this is a great opportunity to pass the torch.  (Please email me if interested.)

Thank you.  Have an empowering week!!!

Tonight's Team Call @ 9pm ET, 712-432-8900, code 57559#

SUCCESS...

although it means different things to different people, we all want to be successful.  But since success can mean different things to different people, it's important for you to figure out your passions and what's most important in your life.  In 5 years, how will your success story read when you're interviewed by...

ESSENCE, BLACK ENTERPRISE OR FORBES!

What will it say about your personal accomplishments and business successes?  What will it say about yoru contribution to your community?  What will it say about your triumphs along the journey to success.  All to often we focus on the obstacles of the journey and the opinions of others, but I believe it's important to focus on the success.  So much so, that it drives you past any hinderences and across the finish line.

The exercise we began is designed to help us sharpen our focus on our Success.  It will help us become more purposeful in our commitment, belief and actions that will make it all possible.

CLICK HERE to read through Regional Field Director, Angie Marshall's story.  It was beautifully written and might assist you in preparing your own.  Tonight we'll ask for one or two more volunteers to share their stories and encourage you to continue to work on yours. 

Our focus for tonight's call is your 30-second commercial!

With only 30 seconds to introduce yourself, what do you say to capture the essence of what you do so that it inspires more questions?  Think about it...and be sure to join the call...

Before we close out October....

Hello Everyone! We have an exciting Call to Action with our 50% + plan. All leaders are being asked to grow their team volumes by 50% this month. We have a few more days left in October, so here are some strategies that I plan to implement to take advantage of the next few days.
1) Encourage ALL Team members to grow their volumes by 50% this month
2) Target entrepreneurs that have not placed an order in over a year. Contact them and let them know about the new products, promotions, and about our FDI merger. If you can "awaken" a sleeping entrepreneur, you will get to take advantage of the Quick Start Bonus of 30% (only if they have been inactive one year or more).
3) Encourage all active Entrepreneurs to have an event this weekend or take "SOUL PURPOSE ON THE ROAD" to a Halloween party/ family gathering. Even if 3 people are present, they might respond to the pampering experience and become a regular customer.
4) MY PERSONAL FAVORITE thing to boost volumes is to evangelize the Balm of the Month Promotion. Pomegranate Mango is one of the balms that I sell the most of, so I am taking advantage of this promo by stocking up on the Mango Balms. In August, I stocked up on Ghanaian Brown Sugar. In September, I stocked up on the Hollywood Fresh. Now in October, I am stocking up on the Mango balms. I will be using this inventory to make Holiday boxes/ gift bags/ baskets that will have a fantastic profit margin since the balms will be sold at regular price. Purchase baskets/ chinese food containers/ gift boxes/ gift bags from the dollar store and make your Soul Purpose Product a must have for the Holiday season. Please, please, please do not miss out on this promotion in the last few days of October.

It is officially the Holiday Season...make sure you send an E-Card reminder that the best store for gifts is your online Soul Purpose Store.

Take care and God Bless You!!

CELL NUMBERS TO BE MADE PUBLIC

I wouldn't usually use our blog to post anything other than business-related information.  However, knowing that most of us use our cell phones for business, you should be aware that cell phone numbers will soon be made public.  This means that TELEMARKETING COMPANIES will have access and will soon begin bugging you on your cell phone.  Even if you have unlimited minutes, I'm sure it will not make you happy to receive unwanted calls.

So, call 888-382-1222 from your cell phone to put your number on the DO NOT CALL list (a service provided by the government www.donotcall.gov).  I did it years ago on my home phone and just did it in about 10 seconds for my cell phone.

UPDATES ON SOULPURPOSE-NEWS!!!

I've been busily working throughout the weekend writing and providing new tools to help the community grow their business.  They have bee posted on SOULPURPOSE-NEWS blog, so I won't repeat them here.  CLICK HERE to go directly to the blog where you will find:

NATIONAL SPA WEEK E-CARD
ONLINE PARTY ORDER ENTRY
BALM OF THE MONTH: MANGO

Later today, I'll post a complete list of POWER STRATEGIES FOR THE 4th QUARTER!  Stay tuned, alert and poised for greatness!

Happy Spa Week!

BLOG FEATURES

I am excited to see the increased "traffic" and sign ups for our team blog!  Designed and maintained for members of Team Anew and Team Journey, the blog is intended as our primary resource to communicate, inform, train and recognize members of the teams for outstanding performance. So, it is important for you, your existing team members and especially new team members to make it an integral part of your ongoing business training.

The blog has many features and I wanted to acquaint you the following which are very important:

THEY ARE READY!!!

Congratulations!

Regina Alexander

Marilyn Barber

Lisa Borders

Greta Douglas

Kenyatta Lynn

Angie Marshall

Nataunya "Nikki" Newsome

Last week, I asked a simple question "ARE YOU READY"?  Members of Team Anew and Team Journey were asked to show their commitment through their ACTIONS: 

NO COMP PLAN WEBINAR TONIGHT!

Please be advised that you may have received an incorrect email notification about a COMP PLAN WEBINAR tonight.  There is no scheduled webinar for tonight.  For some strange reason, the Blogger System sent that notification out about an event which was actually held earlier this year in February. 

The system was perhaps trying to tell me that we need to offer another Comp Plan Webinar in the very near future. So we will! Stay tuned for details!!!

SPECIAL "ARE YOU READY" CALL TONIGHT!

Thank you, we had more than 20 Entrepreneurs who participated in tonight's call!  You were ready, you made the commitment, you did the pre-work and you were on the call!  Congratulations for crossing the threshold to begin growing your business.

Your GIFT Awaits, please send me the following by Wednesday, October 5th:
Marketing Plan (How you will introduce new people to Soul Purpose)
Planning Calendar (see earlier post)
 

"Without a vision, the people will perish."

Having a vision is ESSENTIAL to fueling your passion and drive to achieve success.  Knowing what your success will feel like, taste like, smell like, look like and sound like will help you stay connected to your DREAMS.  Build your VISION or DREAM BOARD!

WEEKLY PLANNING CALENDAR

"A failure to plan is a plan to fail!"

I don't know who said it, but it certainly is true. And, as ENTREPRENEURS with a destination in mind, we can't take any risks with the success of  your journey.

MONTHLY CALENDAR:
If you don't already have a sketch of your monthly calendar laid out through December 2011, please do so. You can begin by including your training dates, Party with a Purpose dates, any known dates for networking events in your area, etc. Since this is a planning calendar, put everything you can think of on it. Then when you are closer to the event, you can decide if it's something you or your team can/will do. (Once you have completed your calendar for October, November, December...began to work on the full year of 2012.)

Visit the websites of your local radio stations, newspapers, other online resources to find out about planned events in your community. Remember, even if you can't afford to rent a booth at an event, you and your team members can always attend to meet people, distribute samples and the Pharmacy Discount Cards.
Your most active calendars will be the next 90 days. Within this timeframe, you should begin making decisions and filling in the details of your activities. This will make for a powerful 4th Quarter.

WEEKLY PLANNING CALENDAR:

What's vitally important is scheduling out your weekly activities. This ensures that you can have clarity about what you will do each day of your week. Please review the SAMPLE CALENDAR provided and use it as a guide to prepare your calendar. I find that calendaring and making sure there is a time for everything that I need to do in the week is quite liberating. Knowing that it's on the calendar means I don't have to stress or worry about it all week long. I just focus on it when the time comes.
For instance, Wednesday evenings is the time I've set aside for 3-WAY CALLS and to make calls to team members. So throughout the week, I make notes of anyone I need to call and why. Then, I pull that list out on Wednesdays and I can get right to work.
