Maximize Your Direct Sales Success: Tips for Handling Persistent Bookings

[lisa717]

I have a girl who just participated in my Mystery Host show.....she was at a show of mine not too long ago-----My director has done her shows in the past......she liked the way I did the interactive show(My director does a no demo).....and wants to book a Sept show with me.....but said my director calls her every month asking if she is ready to do her show....What would you do? ...I plan on taking the show....

Well, I dont know. LOL

I guess I would just have her explain to your director when she calls her again, that she's found another consultant with a different approach that she prefers. And make sure you tell her to tell your director "to take me off your list" so that she no longer gets calls from her.

HTH

Personally, I would have to talk it over with my D before I made a final decision, but that's only because I absolutely love and respect my D

Plus, I know that if the shoe were on the other foot, I'd want to know if a host didn't want to do a show with me but rather someone under me.

Bumping----it wouldn't be any different if this girl had booked off the show in April that she was a guest at....instead she called me and asked me to do her show....in Sept..

hmmmmm....I think I would tell my D that this girl prefers the interactive show and called you to do it. If your D is a supportive one, then she won't have a problem with that!

As awkward as it is for us sometimes, the customer chooses who she invites into her home to do her show. She should give the other consultant a courtesy call/email to let her know.
