You’ve decided to give direct sales a try. You found a company you believe in
Choosing the right direct sales company is crucial. Picking the right direct sales sponsor to sign up under can make all the difference in the world for your success. I am putting together a Dream Team for Neal’s Yard Remedies, and I want to be your mentor, coach and sponsor.
You will certainly get a vibe about your potential sponsor from speaking to her and how fast she gets back to you with answers to questions. Still not sure? Here are five questions to ask of anyone you are considering signing up under.
How long have you been with the company?
I signed up with Neal’s Yard Remedies back in November of 2014. I’ve attended every national conference since. I believe in this company’s mission and their amazing products. My upline leader is a founding regional leader with Neal’s Yard Remedies.
How do I sell the products?
Since becoming an Independent Neal’s Yard Remedies Consultant, I have built my business in a variety of ways, and I can help you discover the best ways for you.
In home workshops are the fastest way to earn money, but not the only way to work your business. There are almost as many ways to do workshops as there are consultants. Pampering or aromatherapy? Theme or make and take? Catalog or online parties? One on ones? Let’s bounce some ideas off each other, and come up with a plan to fit your style.
How about vendor events? Wondering how to find and choose? I’ve done them, and can let you know what to look for and how to do them. .
How knowledgable are you about Social Media?
Social media can grow your business. I have a team Facebook group to keep you informed, whether you are a “business builder” or a “friends and family” consultant. If you have the interest, I will help you maximize your Facebook presence. I absolutely love online marketing, and have taken classes in Facebook parties, Pinterest, and blogging. I will steer you to networking groups to keep up with the latest strategies for attraction marketing.
What do you know about the products?
In the years I’ve been a consultant, I’ve been my own best customer, so I’ve tried a lot of products. Wondering what to order as hostess gifts from your “launch” party? What has been selling the best? What are good cash and carry items for vendor events? I can give you some input.
What do you know about the company?
Company knowledge is also important. Knowing what is allowed and whether you can use the company name on social media. Understanding the compensation plan. If you are still looking at direct sales companies read 10 Questions to Ask Before Joining a Direct Sales Company.
