It’s a new year and what a better way to kickoff the year with a FUN and inspiring team meeting. When you INSPIRE your team with FUN people get excited an love to “belong” to your WINING team.
Here are my tips to kickoff 2018 with a FUN & INSPIRING Team Meeting…
Promote Team meeting: If you want people to attend, you must promote your meeting consistently. I strongly suggest you hold your meeting on the same day every month to role model consistency. Lay out the dates for the team beginning in January. Promote these dates in your weekly newsletter, AND social media. You might even send a postcard in mail. The best way to get people to your team meeting is to delegate a job. Make a special call to a team member for her assistance, or involve team members in tasks each month on a rotating basis. Delegating tasks for team members is showing you value their contributions.
Energy and Excitement. Begin your January meeting with energy and excitement! As they come through the door welcome everyone with a special glass of champagne or Apple Cider and give each person a special 3×5 card to write down ONE goal for 2018. When everyone has greeted each other, ask each person to stand and share her ONE goal! This is very powerful and motivating as each person hears the excitement in everyone’s voice as they look forward to a new year. When your meeting has energy and excitement you are motivating and inspiring members to build profitable businesses
Team Meeting Goal. Your goal at a team meeting is for every team member to leave excited and ready! Ready to book parties. Ready to find new recruits. Ready to grow their business. Use this quick checklist to make sure you are meeting your goal
- Everyone learns new ideas,
- Everyone feels comfortable to participate as an active contributor
- Team members are laughing, smiling and having fun together.
- They are learning NEW ways to sell products
- They are recognized for their efforts
- They takes notes because they hear great NEW ideas
- They attend because they don’t want to miss seeing fellow team friends,
- They LOVE BELONGING to this special group in this wonderful company!
Recognition – Recognition – Recognition, Successful leaders know the value of praise and recognition! HIGHLIGHT as many people who attend your meeting as possible.
“What an amazing month, team! We nailed our team goals!”
“Congratulations, Erin on your promotion to Senior Sales Consultant! Way to go!”
“Mary signed a new recruit at a vendor event this week! Awesome!”
These are positive words of recognition and it is the best way to motivate team members to take action. Recognizing people at your TEAM MEETING can have a profound impact on the culture of your team! When you recognize team members for their efforts, they feel appreciated, and they motivate others to take action.
Product Knowledge TIPS. Offering tips about your product is the #1 reason why most people attend a team meeting. Take the time to always have A VISUAL DISPLAY of your products that you recommend for every party. If you have NEW PRODUCTS in January make sure you have them available for team members to try so they will immediately order the new kits. This is a surefire way to get NEW BOOKINGS in 2018
EXERCISE: Have each team member choose their “favorite” product from your display. Then have each person stand and share how she sells this product at her parties. This is one of the most powerful ways for people to learn how to SELL the products. People get excited and inspired when they hear words other people use or a different twist on what they say about a product.
Training topic: Allow 20 minutes to train on a specific topic that inspires them to grow. Lay out TWELVE training topics for the year. INSPIRE your team in January with a training about goal setting or creating a vision board. Learn more about training your team in the CG academy membership program.
Opportunity time at your Team Meeting I suggest you encourage team members to bring prospects/guests who are thinking about joining your team. Then, hold a 15-20 minute Opportunity Time. Create a habit with your team members to consistently bring guests to every meeting
End meeting with an inspiring quote or message. Your words matter so take the time to find an inspiring message for everyone to leave your meeting ready to jump start their January with gusto!
