Boosting My Team: Adding a New Member and Reconnecting with Inactive Recruits

[erinyourpclady]

I am meeting with my newest team member tomorrow to get her signed up and ready to go! She will make 5 active on my team but only my third personal recruit (actually my 15th but who is counting!). I also am trying to get in touch with 2 of my gals who have gone past their year of inactivity to see if now is the time for them to come back. Think positive thoughts...........

Happy thoughts are coming your way!

On the radio today I heard something about many people are now leaning towards working for themselves instead of for someone else.

They said the most important thing is that a business person needs to realize that only those with determination and persistance will succeed.

Persistant and determined prayers are coming your way!!!! (Now, I need to go take my own advice!!!)

Seriously, don't think of the 15 that you have recruited...as Belinda Ellsworth says, spend more time getting new people on the train. It is better time spent than trying to keep those wanting to get off...on the train. She says it so much better than I do!!

You go, Girl!!!

Well, the saying goes..."Change the people or change the people."Obviously, your peeps needed changing...hopefully you will get some good ones coming your way.I THOUGHT I had a new recruit lead at work...lady had her husband leave her after 25 years of marriage and it is looking like he is NOT willing to work it out. She was going to have a party with me in July so I presented the opportunity.Well, she got caught stealing a dollar here and there from a community fund for food......there goes that recruit lead. Not something I care to worry about on my team. If you steal a buck from people you are willing to do more. Sad thing is many people would have lent her money - I have too! She has always paid me back though...don't know what possessed her on this one though.

We're in the same boat, Erin! Can't seem to get most of my recruits to come to meetings!!!! I don't get it! I know that not everyone needs to attend meetings, but I don't know how to convince them to come to at least one of them! I know they will benefit from them!

Any suggestions??? By the way... I can't even get two of them to respond to my emails or phone calls! Argh.........
