In this week's FastTRACK and Team Up Training Call, Presidential and Lifetime Master Coordinator Jim Burke remarked that some of the most enviable and lucrative careers in the world have been built on the premise of "doing one thing well." And building a large organization that generates residual income in Shaklee is no different. What do you need to know, what do you need to be able to teach others, in order to achieve a career level of income in Shaklee? To ascend to the prestigious top ranks if that's your goal in Shaklee, Jim has some great advice for you.
In Jim's opinion, the answer is simple. "It's becoming a Director and helping others become a Director. That's the only thought I've ever had in Shaklee. If you want to take advantage of how the sales plan works, if you want to produce results, it's important to stay focused, and not to allow yourself to become distracted."
Here's Jim's outline for creating a plan to become a Director. It's one very experienced and successful leader's approach for helping others to become a Director in the first 30-90 days in Shaklee!
1. First, commit to following the plan
6. Learn how to do a new Member orientation: This means helping your network (see point #9) to Shakleeize their home and also set up a Shaklee office
And finally, keep training simple and within one model. Everything you do must be duplicatable - that means it must be something that someone else can easily learn from you and adapt to their own skill level and personality.
We should feel so blessed on our team to have access to some of the top minds in this industry. I've included the podcast to either download to your ipod or listen online. Please don't take this training lightly or make growing your business difficult. As one of my favorite twitter friends says K I S S (keep it simple stupid).. here is the short simple tweet I RT.

2. Become a GOLD Ambassador (this opens the door to all of the different ways you can be paid in Shaklee)
3. Set up an office in your home
4. Learn and understand the Director position with all of its benefits and importance
5. Hook up with all support systems (Shaklee University, EXCITE training meetings, conferences, team meetings)
7. Purchase a small inventory.. certainly not a requirement, but a great commitment. (That's what I did)
8. Learn how to present the compensation plan. (You can use video's or DVD's for this)
9. Build a network of 20 or 30 people
10. Build to Director, if you can't make it to Director, you can't help create a Director

Get the Shaklee Conversation Started

This is post is for those who are ready, and excited to share Shaklee, but even though we want to talk we just haven't figured out what to say not to turn people off to what we have to offer. Here are some of my conversation starters...
- If you could wave your magic wand, and construct your ideal life, what would it be?
- Do you look for opportunities to earn extra income?
- If you could help other people live healthier lives, and earn an income at the same time, is that something that you or someone you know would be interested in learning more about?
Then based on their reply you will know how to proceed. If they reply and you're not sure let me help you with an answer. A typical reply I get is... How are Shaklee Products different than what I buy at Walmart? Your reply would be.. If I sent you a video that talks about the Shaklee Difference would you promise me you will listen to it? If they say yes.. then send them this link.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eG-3StLcArg&feature=PlayList&p=E99FAA44552F84D0
Now lets take that "help me" to a more personal level... Explain to them you are wanting to do a presentation at your house in a couple of weeks but would love to to a "mock" walk through and ask them if you could use them as a "guinea pig" Set a time then do your presentation. Keep it short and too the point and ask for their opnion. By doing this it helps you and it lets them know what you are doing.
Friends always like to help friends out... always ask for referrals especially if they don't seem very interested in what your doing. Here is a simple referal question... "Can you think of anyone who might be interested in learning about Shaklee Products or Business?" If you know them pretty well help them with names of people you both know ask them what they think. If they show interest... Visit with them about joining you in Shaklee and doing a presentation together. Place the people you both know under them, this way it helps both of you.
OR...Same conversation but the presentation could be taking place in a web conference room. You could also do the "can you help" me by inviting them to one of our Master Conferences. Ask them to come with you and "help you" think of people who might be interested in the topic of the conference.
Bottomline is it's not so much "what you say" it's the passion they hear in voice... it's "how you say it." Think of yourself as the messanger or the customer service rep. you are just getting them the information they will need to make an informed decision.
I encourage you to take a moment to listen to the attached podcast. Listen to the passion in Shaklee's CEO Roger Barnett as he talk's about his mission to grow from 1.2 million to 10 million. Together when we meet that goal Shaklee will become the largest force for social change in the world. I don't know about you but that statement makes my heart beat a little bit faster. Be sure in listen, just click on the little podcast button at the top of this post.
