WOW! Phone calls do work! For the last few days I have been personally making follow-up phone calls to let people know of our upcoming event in California. I have spoken to a few people but I have left a lot of messages. Last night an email came from someone who called and she wrote, “THANK YOU, for the reminder call. I just registered for the event. See reminder calls do work!” Now, if only we could get our Hostesses to pay attention and make their all important reminder calls!!!!
You may have to reward them with a small gift to make sure they get the job done. If you want to increase the attendance at your home parties, listen to the “Increase Your Party Attendance” audio CD.

As we look to the opening of the Olympic Games in Beijing, China we cannot help but notice each athlete’s drive, ambition and willingness to work harder than those who are average in their sport. All athletes participating in the Olympics have one goal, to take home the Gold Medal.They have pushed themselves when there was not an ounce of energy left in their bodies. With enthusiasm and excitement they will continue to press on knowing they must take their chance now or wait for another 4 years.
How much harder would you work your Direct Selling business if you knew you only had one chance in 4 years to reach your goal? Would you continually sell, sponsor, train and build a team for the 4 years leading up to the “Direct Selling Olympics” or would you quit one or two years into your training? Building a successful Direct Selling business is exactly like training for the Olympics. There will be times when you work hard and nothing happens. There will be times when you want to cry! There will be times when you want to quit! Then, just as you are ready to give up you get a glimpse of success! You quiet your fears and pick up the pace. You must do the best you can, not just go through the motions. In the Olympics there is no luck, there is only hard work!
There are no “lucky people” in Direct Selling. You create our own luck. You must work hard and seize opportunities that come your way and as you do you will notice how dramatically your luck changes.
Remove the roadblocks you put up for yourself. Refuse to blame your leader, the company, the economy, lousy hostesses, lazy recruits or anything or anyone else for your lack of success. The amount of your success is in direct proportion to the amount of enthusiasm and hard work you are willing to put into your business.
You are an Olympian! You can take the GOLD! Your pursuit of success begins with YOU.
If you’re READY TO STEP UP AND *PLAY BIG*

I had the opportunity to listen to an amazing speaker at my Rotary meeting yesterday. 25 year old Amy shared how she had become a high school literature teacher and coach of the #3 Girls Track team in Michigan.
As I listened to Amy I realized she is just like everyone in Direct Selling who “chooses to succeed.” She worked hard, created her own luch and never gave up!
Not everyone who joins a Direct Selling company wants to make $50,000 or $100,000 a year but I guarantee if they did they wouldn’t give any money back. Do you realize how lucky you are to have the opportunity to be able to earn “as much as you want.” YOU DECIDE WHAT YOU ARE WILLING TO DO IN ORDER TO EARN WHAT YOU WANT TO EARN! The choice is yours to live with. You can be persistent and succeed or you can let your dream die one booking or one recruit too soon!
Don’t give up! As Amy reminded us, “you can do anything, when you work hard, create your own luck and do the best you can (don’t just go through the motions.”
I never knew I could learn so much from someone who was so young! You gotta love it!

We cannot choose how many years we will live - But - We can choose how much life those years will have.
We cannot control the beauty of our face - But - We can control the expression on it.
We cannot control life’s difficult moments - But - We can choose to make life less difficult.
We cannot control the negative atmosphere of the world - But - We can control the atmosphere of our minds.
Too often we try to choose and control things we cannot.
Too seldom we choose to control what we can…OUR ATTITUDE! ~ Unknown

Last night I attended our Annual Waterford, Michigan Rotary President’s Night Dinner where we say Thank You to the outgoing President and welcome the incoming President. Not only did I thoroughly enjoy being with our friends I was excited to be reminded of all the good things our Club had done throughout the year.
If you are not familiar with Rotary it is a service organization of business people who meet weekly to network, fundraise and do things to better our communities, our country and our world. Because of Rotary International the threat of polio in third world countries is almost totally eradicated. Rotarians around the world have been working to improve the water conditions, health, and education and other issues that affect the people living in countries that are not as blessed as we are.
I am proud to be a Rotarian and I encourage all of you who aren’t involved in a service organization of any type to join one. Do it to network! Do it to help others! Do it because you’ll be making a difference and that’s what life is all about!

I am becoming known in the Direct Selling world as the “party queen”! I love to have fun and I always made sure my Hostesses and guests were having fun
too! I played games and joked with them and would often make myself the “butt of the jokes”. (I often told people that I was playing with half-a-deck).
We are living in a “stressed out society”. The guests in attendance at your party have probably had as rough as day as you’ve had. If you try to understand that it will be easier for them to absorb the information when
it’s given in a fun and entertaining way you will be the winner!
People love to be around fun people who make them feel good! You will get more bookings! You will sponsor more people! You will be the person who is referred to others! You will grow your business in every aspect when you “lighten up” and make people feel comfortable.
PARTY ON!

I just flew from Detroit, Michigan to Calgary, Alberta today and I had the most delightful flight attendant in First Class (one of the benefits of my thousands of miles in the air). Her name was Vivia (no “n”) and she created a wonderful experience for all of us in First Class.
First, she had the list of everyone who was seated in First Class and when she came to us she addressed us by name. “Ms. Phelps, what would you like to drink?” Now, I’ve been seated in First Class often and I will tell you that probably only once of every 10 flights (that’s being generous) does the flight attendant address us by name.
Throughout the entire flight she would ask, “Is there anything else I can do for you Ms. Phelps? Are you sure you have everything you need?” She continued to use each passengers name (there were 16 of us in all) even after she did not have her list with her.
But, it was when we were about to land that she came to each of us individually and thanked us for flying Northwest and she was glad we were on her flight today!
Let me ask you a question. Do you take time to learn the names of the guests who attend your parties. Are you using their name to draw them into the presentation and do you help create a personal experience that makes your guests say, “Wow, that consultant is so good, you have to buy from (or book from) her?”
People love to hear their name used and when you are trying to get their money and or their time for a party the more you take time to learn and use their names the better your conversion ratio will be.
Take a lesson from Vivia! She was exceptional. By the way, I will be sending Northwest a letter to let them know how exceptional she was. I will even send them to this post!
