Hi - I signed up as a new consultant, and have a friend interested in purchasing some products. I first told her I was an independent consultant for a Swiss skin care line, and that I thought she would like the products. She used them over the weekend, and now wants to order some. I do not want to seem too pushy with the whole business thing, so I am not sure what to tell her now. Do I encourage her to sign up as a consultant, or just let her buy the products and discuss it later? How do a start the conversation?Any suggestions on how to go about this are appreciated.


Thanks!

First of all, I'd call your upline and talk with her before you do anything.


Also, how much are the products that she's ordering? If it's a lot, you could offer the opportunity of signing up to get the discount and the free product if the order is over $100.

If she is purchasing more than $100 in product (retail), I would offer her the wholesale consultant option. That way, she can also get a free product of her choice.


Of course, if she ever decides to work the business, she will be connected to you by doing this.


But, as LeapFrog said, you should check with your upline.
