I know I can ask my recruiter/director about this, and I will, but I also really like the ideas from this group. So here goes. I need help recruiting. I have a couple of leads...how should I approach this. I am hesitant to approach this until I feel super confident. Here are my leads, any ideas suggestions would be great. #1- My old College Roomie. We haven't seen each other in years. She lives almost 2 hours away. She has a very small apartment, and a 2 year old daughter. She is staying home right now. She is anxious to move out of her small apartment. She got sick prior to having her daughter, and has many bills cause of medical issues. Her hubby is a UPS driver#2- High School friend. She sells Southern Living and when I told her that I became a PC consultant she mentioned, jokingly, that she should do PC cause the thing she does not like about SL is that the things are too heavy/bulky for her to carry. She did not attend a show today she was invited to, ordered online, and mentioned that she would like info to host a show online. She is getting married this summer. So I am sure money and time is tight. #3- A very good friend who worked in the advertising business with me. Probably my most unlikely recruit. I wanted to talk to her about doing it on the side now, because we have had so many talks about wanting to do something other than advertising for our careers and how un-family oriented the business is. She just found out she is 6 weeks pregnant. I want to be sensitive to the fact that she has a lot on her plate, but to convince her to get started now, that way she has a business built for once she has the baby in case she wants/needs to leave her full time job. #4- My Uncle's Wife's Daughter (did you follow that?). She is hmm, a bit odd, but she has a unique personality that I think could make her successful and she has sold Party Lite in the past, and I know they say a good lead is one who has joined a Direct Marketing group in the past. I met her for the first time at my Grand Opening. She traveled from 1+ hours away in a snow storm to come! She was not an original invite, she came as a guest of her Moms. Her Mom is having a show in March, which she talked her Mom into, and she is having a show in Aug or Sep.What would be your tips to recruit each one??? Thanks!
