Here are FIVE quick ways for Leaders to increase business in the next 90 days!

Quick tips for this event are to Decorate your home, invite customers, friends and family. Set up stations of gift sets around your home. Hand everyone a gift-giving list when they enter your home. Do several drawings throughout the event. Make it special, add candles for atmosphere, serve holiday cookies and eggnog, and get everyone in the spirit.

2. Teach team how to serve vs. Sell. Serve the customer’s holiday shopping needs and be the solution for gifts for their family and friends. Offer gift-wrapping service, Offer customers H.U.G.S. These are Huge Urgent Gifts for last minute shopping. Encourage team to have Holiday Hostess gifts and fill their booking calendar. Invest in the CALENDAR GIRLS Team booking system and create a team booking calendar. Give a reward to the team member who holds the LAST part of 2013, and a reward to the team member who holds the FIRST booking of 2014.
3. Give the gift that keeps on giving. Encourage team members to have a picture frame at checkout that says, “Hiring for the holidays. No experience needed.” Excite them to take advantage of this busy time and share the business opportunity with many people during this time who are looking for a way to earn extra income at this time of year. Incentivize your team to hold recruiting appointments every week. Train your team how to use strategic posts in social media on the benefits of joining your team.
4. Grow new circles of business. The next 90 days is the time for NEW CLIENTS! Every week you’re meeting NEW people at holiday parties, office parties, social events. Encourage team to participate in holiday bazaars, fairs and craft shows. This is the time when people come out of the woodwork to look for holiday gifts. Train them how to connect with their powerful success story introduction and build the “know, like and trust” relationship to follow up for business.
5. Hold a Team Celebration. Schedule a special team celebration event at a restaurant, or make it a pot-luck at your home. Recognize and celebrate all the significant activities and milestones reached during the year. Have everyone bring a small gift and play a pass the gift game. Share your team goals for the upcoming year and get them working together as one. Team spirit is one of the essential agents to performance and success.
