Is Recruiting the Key to Becoming a Director in PC?

[amya]

From the very beginning with PC I have said that I wasn't going to concentrate on recruiting. Then a lady came to me in December and said she was interested so naturally I agreed to help her out. She qualified at the end of January.

Then I realized that in order to get an override on her sales I needed to recruit one more. So I set out to do that. This past Saturday I had my annual host appreciation party and offered recruiting bags. Two people took bags!!!!!One wants to sell full-time and I have an interview set up for tomorrow with the other one.

Then..........I check my e-mail today and a host from last October is interested in selling!!!!

I realize they may not all sign and qualify, but WOW! 3 in one week!!!!

I am so excited

I may actually make director!

Congrats! I didn't recruit for the first 2 years, then I got the confidence that people really DO want to do this after my first and then offered to others.

Congrats!!! GREAT job and good luck! I hope they all join your team.

Care to share what you put in your recruiting bag and how you presented it?

 

[raebates]

All right! You're on your way.Am I jealous? A bit, but I'm still doing the happy dance with ya!

That is a GREAT idea to bring an Oppritunty bag to shows . I am in the same boat that you are in I have a new recuit that just started and she loves it . Now I have put my mind to getting another for the overrides ( cause I should get it not only my director ) . I have recuited many others in the past but for what ever reasons they have stopped.
, I will put ribbon on the bags and dress it up.. will see how that work. I also have a vendor show at the end of the month
Thanks for the idea

way to go - keep it up!!!
We'll soon see you walking the stage!!

 

[PCGINA]

THE BAGS WORK!!! Fill some more and and go get-em!!!

 

[DebbieJ]

Awesome job! And they don't have to be qualified for you to earn your override. Future Director is just two ACTIVE recruits.

WOOHOOO!!!

 

[PampMomof3]

WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Are you going to Conference?

 

[pckelly]

That's SO awesome, AMYA!!! What do you put in the bags?? I bought some to do for my next show, and have filled it with a few things: candle, nail file, chocolate, lip gloss, DVD, apron comes in sizes sheet and Your Life your Way flyer. What do you put in them?????

 

[Shawnna]

Is there anything special for us at conference. I just became a FD too. I received my catalogs today for my latest recruit. There wasn't even a note in the bag saying what it was for. I haven't received anything from HO yet either...of course, it has only been 9 days since she sent her online agreement. She hasn't even received her kit yet.

These bags are somewhat different than the Why Bag idea. I have tried the Why Bag but I didn't feel comfortable and never really got any "bites."

These are bags my director calls Take 5 Bags. In other words, take 5 minutes and look over the opportunity to see if it is for you.

I just bought cheap paper gift bags and put an Opportunity brochure and a New Consultant Rewards brochure in each. I also made up a paper that says - "You've taken 5 minutes to look at PC, now take 5 more to write down 5 questions you have for me when we talk." At the bottom I made a coupon that says - "Now take $5 off your next order with me!" I also put a Take 5 candy bar in each.

At the beginning of my show I go around the room and have everybody introduce themselves and say what their favorite PC product is. When it gets back around to me I introduce myself and say that my favorite product is the new consultant kit on the back cover of the catalog (I got that idea from someone on here!). Then I briefly tell them what PC has done for me and my family and then I point to the bags prominently displayed on the table. I tell them if they are interested to take a bag and we'll talk in the next week. Then I leave the bags there for the entire demo, but don't say anything else.

At least this is what I did last Saturday. It was the first time I tried it, but I'm a believer.

Thanks for the tidbits Amy! I like all of it!

 

[chefmary]

Amy, this sounds like a great idea! Would you mind sharing the flyer you include (about the questions)?

TIA,

Mary

 

[pckelly]

Mine are recruiting bags too, not the WHY bags. I just wondered what else you put into yours! I love the Take 5 approach, I will add that instead of just regular chocolate!! Great idea!!

 

[amya]

I'm hoping this works. I don't do this too often.

 

[mommyhugz1978]

What are recuriting bags??? I need one more to be an FD but I really want to be a Director!!! WAY TO GO by the way!!
