Connect With Like-Minded People
- People like you become direct sellers. You’ll find people who started their business for similar reasons as you did, so there will be easy conversation and quick connections. Most companies place you in teams where you can ask questions and grow friendships. A lot of this connecting can be done online, so you won’t have to hire a sitter to get out of the house just to have a social life.
- Become a leader. If you’re in it for the long-haul, you have the ability to progress through the ranks of your company and lead your own team. You’ll get to invest in people’s lives, coach them, and learn how to grow your own personal brand. Dana Phillips, the co-founder of Team Connections, knows what it takes to become a successful leader but she doesn’t want you to feel overwhelmed or intimidated! She says, ” A lot of leaders ask me this question, ‘What do I need to be able to work with my team?’ Let’s start with the biggest item that you don’t need. You don’t need expertise. If you’ve been active for a little bit more than your team, you are okay. You have experience. In direct sales, experience counts. What you really need, right from the very beginning, is permission. You need permission to work with your people in the way they want. Direct selling is a volunteer activity. You don’t really get to hire or fire anyone. What you really have is the power to share your experience. So start by asking if you have their permission to work with them. At some point, you can ask, ‘Do you want me to push you, pull you, or get out of your way?’ It’s just that simple. Ask permission.” Click to view Dana’s video: The One Requirement for Success with Your Team
