View Full Version : Puppy Dog Approach Question

I'm just trying to get started with the puppy dog approach. No one in my area is using it, so it's sometimes hard to get answers to my questions. Is anyone here successfully using this approach?


My question isthis: When someone does not choose to do the business, but wants the puppy or the spa package, do you routinely NOT give them the $29 wholesale account? When someone is trying to achieve District Manager Status, at least $1000 of volume needs to be Personal RV. If everyone who bought a spa package got a wholesale account, where would you get the $1000 PRV needed?


Thanks for any help!

I give everyone who wants it- the $29 wholesale account. As for the $1000 to qualify for District, remember that is over the entire qualification period, whether you take 1, 2 or 3 months. It's one Smart Start and 2 RE9 sets to pup. A "Smart Start" is $500 + $200 for $40 - 35% = $365 wholesale ($700 in products). Only $15 more than a RSVP, but volume is $500. Once you make District, your personal volume only needs to be $100 ($65 wholesale) per month to collect your overrides and bonuses.

If someone wants the wholesale account but also wants the RE9 kit, then make this offer to them: Buy the pup for $250 retail but give them the wholesale price, $172.90. Then after that order is complete, sign them up for the $29 account. They will be getting a good deal b/c when they order the pup, they are also going to be able to get the $100 for $20. I offer wholesale price regardless. Edited by: ZachMadsMom
