TIPS & TIDBITS from the Convention
shared during 6/27 group chat
 <Jen P, MN> Be as passionate about sharing the business as you are about the books. <Sharon Ohlson, CA> With all our sales, we impacted the literacy of 1.5 million children!
 <Tressa Nelson> focus - promising to do 45 min a day, no matter what will help me <Ann Boman DiMarco OR> The state of Arizona looks at the rate of literacy for 3rd graders to see how many prisons to build :( We can touch so many lives for the better :) <Bridget, IN> Ruth helped me to think about how I would feel if no one had shared this opportunity with me, and this helps a lot when I begin to try to recruit others.
<Wendy Kennedy, IN> what you are doing now will
impact your business 4 to 6 months from now.
<Lisa Newpower, MN> Make a list of 10 things you want to do and do
them |
Individual and group recognition, excellence in training, new titles, bargain bookstore, fun, friends and so much more!
 <Kelly George, OH> the importance of seeing the positive in everything, .....everything can be "TERRIFIC!" <Bridget, IN> Don't prejudge and not share the opportunity because of what you think they want or don't want to do.
<Susan
Wandishin, CO> service entire schools, ask the librarian, "Who
else can I help?" |

<Lisa Newpower, MN> I mail my business card with every bill I pay --
the person processing the payment just might hate their job
<Carolyn Brown, NC> Believe in the program and share your excitement. Honestly nothing in the "fundraising" arena beats it! Help them understand 100% return. And that having the books is better than having the cash. What else could a school want/need than our books?! <Debbie Burget, WV> Use inTouch Mailing Lists for you customer e-newsletters. When you send BCC many ISP's think it is spam and the recipient never even gets it & sending COPY shares their email addy with others. <Debbie P, IL> when you are working to sponsor someone say "give it a try for 4 shows and if you don't like it you can walk away" that way they should bronze |
<Jan Gomez, OH> You call guests 2 days before to establish
relationship, greet guests at door, have them pick out 2 books they
like to share later...keeps them away from food right away so they
can focus on the books.
<Courtney Roberts, NC> make sure you are working consistently--when something is going out the door have something coming in <Kelley, oh> have the hostess introduce you instead of you introducing yourself at the homeshow.
<Bridget, IN> Even if you do not feel comfortable with all the
different avenues of sales with our company, know about them. So
you can share with your recruits.
<Courtney Roberts, NC> make customer care calls, tomorrow! Get feedback from your customers |
<Tressa Nelson> give out your business cards like they were candy
<Karen Baize, AL> take new catalogs and books to the hospital & dr. appointments. My kids are always asking if they can read mommy's books.
<Wendy Kennedy, IN> Never Give up -- Those who are successful have
never quit!
<Tricia in Cincy OH> If you actually LISTEN, customers will tell you what they want. Our job is to give it to them |
