It was Friday night at 10:00 pm and I was feeling a little weary from a busy week. I’d finished my party and thanked the hostess, and was packing up my clothes. I was thrilled with the orders from the party. $1200 in sales and two good bookings, I was building a great relationships with the hostess, who was not a qualified recruit lead, but she was a very influential business woman who had become my referral partner.
The hostess and myself were sipping on a cup of tea when a woman burst through the door saying, “I know I’m late, but I want to order 3 Classic jackets, 3 gored skirts, 4 short sleeve classic tops and 6 pairs of those amazing jodpur pants.”
Well, if I calculated that order in my head very quickly I could see another $800- $900 being added to the sales of that party! Yes, my instant income from the party was going up rapidly.
But wait! This woman obviously new my fashion line so well. The fashions she wanted were our top sellers, and the size of her order was more than the cost of our start up kit!
I wrote up her order and of course, wanted to know how she knew about these fashions. She told me her story how she found them in Florida, and love them so much. She’d been waiting to meet someone in Colorado who sold them so she could add to her collection. Obviously the consultant in Florida had not followed up with her. Big Mistake!
So, what did this ONE MORE order do for my business? I call this the ripple effect.
That night, I arranged to meet her for coffee the next morning at 10:00 am. I showed her how her enthusiasm and love of these clothes was the way for her to share them with others and join my team.
She signed up, she became a top seller on my team, she developed her own team and became a top level leader in our company, and was instrumental in helping our team make it to the million dollar circle. I love telling this story, not only because of the effect it had on my business, but because this person became a wonderful friend who I admire and respect.
This is the ripple effect of adding ONE MORE strategy to your business. Look at your direct sales business today, what ONE MORE strategy can you implement to increase your sales, your bookings and your recruiting? One more order, one more customer, one more party, one more recruiting appointment, on more hostess, one more team member?
The moral of the story is to never underestimate the value of implementing ONE MORE thing in your business.
