Facebook and New Products: Avoiding Premature Announcements

[PamperedK]

Is there any way you could keep new products off of Facebook one more week? They haven't been announced yet in Canada, but I've already learned of some because of Facebook.

Here at least we can ship those threads.....we don't have that option on FB.

When do they announce it in Canada?

 

[PamperedK]

Next Friday at our national conference. I'm sure I speak for all of us Canadians when I say we'd appreciate it!

Keep in mind that FB is MUCH larger than us here on CS.

Even if the consultants on here don't post, it does not mean the MANY other consultants on FB won't post something.

You may want to avoid FB for the week, too!

I realize that.....at least in my case, the only US consultants I know are from here.

I know I haven't posted about anything with the new products on FB because I'm trying to fill my August Calendar. Only thing I've raved about are some of the new recipes.Sorry your fun has been spoiled!

I'm with Mallory! One of the fundamental rules of sales is "sell what you have today".

Other than the 3 new items that are the August host bonus and the July recruit special I won't be showing new product on FB page until the 18th of this month soonest.

I will post one or two of the new recipes sometime between now and end of month.

All of that having been said there's no way to keep the info out of the public eye. Sorry, PamperedK.

I saw recipes and discontinued items being posted on FB right after the first session. Although I know these are not "technically" sharing the new products, it would certainly tip off some changes that were coming.

yeah i'm trying to just scroll past any US consultant's posts but some posts have been really obvious and hard to miss what they were talking about.
