View Full Version : Making DM

Hi everyone, I need some advice. I will make DM this month if I get $3770.00 in volume. I am also due to have a baby 03/22/06 which could come early as the ultrasound says this may be a big baby! Anyway, do you have any suggestions on how to get some sales. My upline does not really do parties, they do the 45 sec pres books drop off w/a sample and then upon p/up set up a meeting to talk about the bunsiness. I will p/up my 45 sec books from three people tomarrow so hopefully they will see the opportunity and sign up but not for sure. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I know if I do not make it this month I will have to start over as this is my 3rd month. Thanks so much in advance for any advice.


Also I was thinking about presenting the LGS approach when I p/up the 45 sec books as the LGS makes a lot of sense to me. I would have to incorporate the 45 sec book by saying get three people to do it ideally. Sorry this is so long.

Have you done any parties yourself? I would host one for yourself to
get people interested and hopefully buying. That's what I'm doing this
month, just trying to bring in some $ towards my DM goal. I'm just
throwing one myself and having people over and talking about the
products.



Good luck and congratulations on your baby! :)

Pardon my ignorance, what is a 45 sec book and LGS approach?

Hi Heather! Do you have anyone under you helping to build volume or is it just you? That, to me, makes a BIG difference, especially w/ a new baby on the way ~ Congrats!! If it is such a huge push and struggle to make DM, you still must maintain when you get there. You will get a 2 month building period, which lines up great w/ the new baby, but then it will be "back to work!" It is just so much easier w/ even one person under you also bringing in sales. Just my thought..

I did throw a "kickoff party" in my first month and sold about $500.00 worth and I did get one business builder out of it. So I do have one person building volume of her own and I also have about 4 wholesale consumers under me. My one business builder is thinking about having a "business launch" (that is what my upline calls it now) this month or next month. I'm defintely pushing for her to have it this month though!
