I have a lady that entered the contest and checked that she would like more info. I sent her an email, but I know I should call her, I’m just not a phone person and I am nervous, and not sure what to say. I know it will get easier if I just do it!! I have to go to work in a few, but I’m hoping when I come back to see some words of encouragement and then I will give this lady a call :)

Hi Cinnamon,
You can definately do this. I remember feeling very comfortable talking to you when we spoke on the phone. I was definatly not that way when I first dialed your number.
Just be yourself and you will make it through. Remember to listen to what her need and wants are and you will do fine!
Good Luck!
Many Blessings,
Natalie

Hi, you could call her and say.....
"Hi, (name)! This is Cinnamon and you recently registered for my weekly drawing with Mia Bella and I noticed you were interested in earning money from home. Would it be ok if i sent you a packet with some great information on our business and compensation along with some of our scent-sational scent samples?"
Now, of course they will say YES!! And that way, if they are busy, they dont feel obligated to talk and that eleviates your fears as well. Let her get familiar with the business through the cd and website and then you can answer her questions.
Let her know you will get back in touch with her after she receives her packet to answer any questions.
In the meantime, i would also send her an email that it was nice to talk with her and you wanted to list some of our business opp call times in case she wanted to listen in.
Then, i would call her back in a few days!!
YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!! smileys/smiley32.gif

Cinnamon-
You will learn a LOT if you do a 3-way call with Lori! She's awesome-
especially when it comes to talking to people and telling them about our
Scent-Sational business!
I wish it was possible to do FOUR-WAY calls, b/c then I would listen in and
learn from a PRO all day long!!!smileys/smiley36.gif

Here is a thought to keep you from having phone phobia -
Pretend your prospect has entered the contest page of 4 other people and checked the box to know more! This person is expecting a call from someone and is serious about the business.
What if you are the 5th one to call and miss the sign up?
Just be conversational with people. Don't try to sell, but ask questions instead. Probe and find out what is important to your prospect in a home business. Find out what they are looking for in a sponsor. Find out if they have had a business before.
Ask questions and allow them to chat and you'll have them eating out of your hand and they will appreciate being HEARD for a change!
You'll be fine!
