TIPS FROM THE TOP:
Laurie Cooper- "Educating myself on everything I could with network marketing, our company and our products. Caring about other peoples success and doing everything I could to help them learn what they needed. Building real relationships with people and asking God to guide me in everything. Overflow with passion and excitement and give people hope that this can happen for them too. Never ever ever tolerate or get involved with anything negative. My blinders are always on and my eyes are on the big picture and the vision that God showed me. If there is rock in the road I probably won't see it."
Jenn Hawkins- "Asking questions and then telling a real life testimony that relates to their need/desire."
Cheyenne Weable- "Be honest and sincere. Follow up, follow up, follow. Educate your customers and downline on all products and their benefits."
Alicia McKee- " spend some time on the Plexus Worldwide Youtube channel! Over 200 videos and trainings there - straight from Plexus. Diamond Docs, product videos, comp plan videos... make a plan to watch or listen to a Wednesday night call once a day. You can do this while in the car or while cleaning up the kitchen or making dinner! So much to learn. I gave up TV when I started and record a few shows here and there but rarely RARELY watch tv. And guess what. I don't miss it! I would rather be learning about Plexus and how to grow my biz"
Stephanie Wehrle Huffman- "Knowledge is power! Read! Read! I agree with Alicia..... I remember watching everything I could get my hands on specific to plexus! I now encourage my team members to do the same."
Jana Lane Garcia- "Find ways to connect people. Especially the motivated ones that want it. Whether that be a chat, group or group text, a daily place for people to see motivating chatter can be a game changer for some. It's a hit or miss thing. Sometimes they are successful and sometimes they aren't. But the successful ones make a world of difference. Especially if most of your team is not local, so not much opportunity for in person meetings. Never stop brainstorming ideas that will help people learn and get out of their comfort zone, and encourage continual learning/improving."
Gina C. Foret- "when out and about dont always have your phone in your face ,,, tell people hello that could be your next rock star . finds ways to talk to people . when in line at the store hand the person in front of you a blitz card tell them you expanding your business , if they know anyone your products could help."
Alicen Ford Breaux- "Master the skill of inviting. Invite people daily to take your business card, look at the opportunity video, attend a meeting, listen to the opportunity call, ect.
Stay consistent in every aspect of your business and with using your products. This is so important."
Kelly Norman- "Make a list of 100 people... remember: you will always be adding to this list as you meet more people and others come to your mind. I like to use F.R.A.N.K. Friends Relatives Neighbors and Kids to boost my mind. Once you have your list circle 20 to contact. You can email, text, inbox or better yet call! Remember there is fortune in the followup! sometimes it takes 6 exposures for someone to jump on board.. I also like to encourage 3 way calls when you are contacting people. If they seem interested and want to know more info see if you can set a three way up with your upline. Bring new life into your downline creates momentum! Let your downline know you Willmatch their energy! Last but not least you have a small window after someone signs up of raw excitement. Make sure you are training and encouraging quickly after signing them up
"
Sheila Medina- "Testimonies!!! Share don't keep this product or business opportunity a Secret!!"
Beth Anderson- "I say communication with team members. And not just over Facebook. Call each of them and continue training them. Make things personal. People like real! Testimonies of people you know personally work best for me. I like smaller meetings to. We have small trainings with our team and small social dinners to brainstorm."
Jeddie Harrison- "Learn the difference between linear and residual income. I mean I can do the cabbage patch in the living room while in my skivvies any hour of the day and make the same money that I did the hour that I actually worked in those same skivvies. Show me a better way and I'll follow!"
Rozalyn White Payne- "I have found that constant training has really helped my team grow at a nice pace! It gives folks a confidence in their business. Always circle back to basics, especially when you are adding lots of newbies to your team each month. Often re-share and post in your team pages basic information for your team in terms of posting rules, what to post and why, encourage to then POST their why, explain the money back guarantee, that Business Building Bonuses are paid on Friday paychecks and what commissions are paid on our 15th checks, remind them that the 28th is normally when autoqualsrun, that new ambassadors are not required to have a $100 PV in their first month, and that Social Media is currently the strongest platform we now have to share Plexus and build our business. Remind folks that they do not have to reinvent the wheel, that the path to success with this business has been paved for them...they just need to pick up the reigns and move forward with drive an passion. Duplication is key and if we can get our downlines to train as we train, at the level in which we do, that it will only make our team stronger and will in turn grow our businesses at a fast pace! And lastly, Pray over your team, daily...the power of prayer is immeasurable !"
Lori Word Harrison- "Remember that we- everyone currently involved in Plexus- are trailblazers in a revolution!
And EVERY single experience, whether it's positive progress- or an incident that makes you pull your hair out-- is a chance to sharpen your skills- so you can lead better.
Things have a way of naturally cycling back around. Once you've been down a dark road once, it's easier to navigate the next time- and even bring folks with you!
Also, don't take everything so seriously.
When you are making decisions, and your heart is battling your mind-
Go with the "right thing" to do every time! It may feel like a "loss" at the moment, but it always comes back around to you!”
Stacey Hinson Hickerson- "Self growth, making connections with new people, staying connected to your team, and feeding your mind with positives and testimonies."
Tammy Elmore-" 1)Share YOUR story no matter how big or small. People are looking for REAL life experiences from REAL people. 2) Don't spend your precious time trying to resurrect the dead! 3) Provide training for your team. Get them involved with ideas that are doable. 4) Stay plugged in!! Visit training groups often, listen to weekly conference calls, attend events and meetings."
Jerit Abart- "I'll type few simple things I focus on while standing here in line at Disney. - 1. Lead with a servant heart 2. Don't ask your team to do something you aren't willing to do. 3. Negativity is cancer - eliminate it 4. Keep things simple - we can all learn sales pitches and new social media techniques- but focus on treating people like you want to be treated. Learn the Lost Skill of being friendly and kind."
Amy Sage- "Be coachable. Don't reinvent the wheel. Plug into your team training groups, utilize the amazing marketing videos Plexus has created for us, share our weekly Opportunity calls with prospects ... and most importantly, do what others before you have already done and succeeded doing! This business does not have to be hard.
Be a product of the product and share with others how you feel. It's the benefits that our products and our business opportunity create that "sell" ... so avoid puking the details, unless asked!”
Amy Cunnington- "Build relationships. And remember God gave us 2 ears and only one mouth so listening is a big thing when promoting our business. And also lead by example.”
Helen McFadden- "What incredible leaders we have here!!!!! I often think about a very powerful quote "If you make people feel good, they will never leave you" Yes, Plexus is a business, and an amazing financial opportunity, but the "family" and the feeling of "one team one mission" is what separates us from any other MLM. I spend a lot of time pouring into my team and creating camaraderie the best I can. I have events in my home, events in my suite (had one after Halloween party and gave them all gifts), purposefully went to Disney and spent the day with 18 of my team (they all said it was their best Plexus day ever and bonded like you wouldn't believe, it really was incredible,a day we'll never forget), Silver & above breakfasts, Christmas parties in my home, I treat my level ones like GOLD (bought them all massages in Hawaii and usually treat them to dinner at events), send notes & gifts and run very few contests - I want them to know how much I care and appreciate, and to see them do this now for THEIR teams, makes me believe it's working. Each team in my level ones have such a bond. It's all about relationships and trust and keeping it real. We cannot pour enough into our teams and build our level ones up with belief. Then, when their business gets tough - which we all know it will, they feel connected and loved, not just by me, but by all of us on our team since they've built relationships with everyone. It's really extended family....Bottom line, invest in your team, give them unconditional love, and you will have a team for life."
Lori Welch- "Lately for me it has been a combination of three things. One is having the attitude I had in the beginning which was asking God to lead me to the right people and trusting He will. The second is being way bolder. I am pretty bold but I took bold up a few notches lately because if I am going to be asking God to show me who I need to be talking to just about everybody. The third is spending time with my level ones. Just making myself available to one or two a week if I can. Going for coffee or a walk and listening. I got that advice from something Helen wrote awhile back. I think it is helping them. They are growing and I enjoy it too cause they are my friends. The biggest thing is not stressing and just consistently working. That has been personal growth for me. It's like God said "Hey Miss Diamond do you seriously think you got yourself here by yourself? Um no. " Guess this is not really worded like "training tips" but that is what is really on my heart. I will do training tips next…. This may be very simple but I really like training "The Perfect 10" worksheet and asking my people to keep their completed ones so they can actually visibly see what they are actually doing each week to grow their business. They serve as a great reminder."
Sonya Dudley- "Focus on others , connecting, duplication is the key, you dont need to be the best sales person, but be able to teach what you know... simple, simple, People want honesty and realness and so be fun and goofy is fine!! You just need to make them feel important from day 1…"
Sara Marble- “Be coachable. Personal growth and development has been key for me and my journey. Learning something new everyday from everyone around me as well as seeking out books and audios to help increase my belief and give me the skills needed to be successful! Keep it simple. Don’t reinvent the wheel. We have amazing tools that can be used to plug people in and help them feel motivated and connected. Set goals and stay focused. Don’t compare and remember we are all on a different journey. Effective time management is very important and you have to make an effort to set business hours and work those consistently with income producing activities! And above all else, the best advice for success in my opinion is operating by the golden rule…do unto others as you would have them do unto you and you can’t go wrong!”
Celeste Gwynn- " I think it's important to create buzz and excitement about product and opportunity right off the bat!!!”
Debra Lawson- "The Power of Three is my go to sheet. I like to teach collect 100 names - star your top 10 and start sharing Plexus with your top 10. We all have 3 friends that would do Plexus with you. and then get each one to Silver as soon as you can. The Perfect 10 worksheet is a great sheet to track your Income Producing Activities. I also share with my team that Facebook post are a must BUT not an IPA. Real IPA's are talking to folks sharing the Product or Opportunity."
Jerry Lawson's Tip….When he approaches people and they start taking the product …He just tells them straight up - This product you will take for the next 60 days. We have a 60 day guarantee in place. His point is that you can't decide in just 3 days, two weeks and sometimes a month if this product works for you or not. Sometimes it takes 60 days for some to notice a difference. Jerry - puts the thought in their mind yes I am going to take the challenge and take it for 60 days.
Heather Burke- " I think that showing people your personal journey is one of the keys to success. I posted other people's testimonies for 3 months straight and hardly had any nibbles. The week that I made myself vulnerable and really put it out there what Plexus had done for me (admitting that I had been on anxiety meds for years to help w/ my panic attacks was NOT easy for me), I signed 5 ambassadors and my sales doubled. In one week. What I realized was that I was exposing people to Plexus and they were somewhat interested, but when they saw MY personal experience, they were sold. I've seen that countless times on my team. Transparency is key in this business in my opinion! We never know what other people are dealing with behind that computer screen or phone. Being real might just change their world... and yours."
Susie McColl- " I think the biggest thing we have going for us is our passion for the plexus products, being "real," being lighthearted - we don't know if someone is a level one to us or a level 8, we still help them. We purposefully don't use words like "downline" or "upline" or "leg" - we always say "team". Now, we've never been part of a MLM before, so this is just how we've been since the get go. We would never want our team to feel as if they are working "for us" - thus the "McColl Minions" shirts at Halloween party - they knew we would die when we saw those! Our team page is incredible and I thank God for it as I certainly didn't know what I was doing when I created it. There is so much encouragement and support amongst our team. So it is kind of like one big family support group. We recognize birthdays, they ask for prayer requests, etc."
Dana Benson- "1) Be yourself do not try to be someone else. 2) have meetings, go to them, be involved with them, always look for them. Support your teammates and go to theirs when you can. 3) Try and push yourself with something to get you out of your comfort zone as often as you can.
4) find a creative way to invest in all of your relationships."
Angie Thomspson- "We have always stuck with personally helping each level one we sponsor get to Silver in their first month. Offer to do a small launch event for them to introduce them and plexus to their contacts. This will get people out of the starting block so to speak with a jump! Treat your ambassadors like you treat your customers and it will pay off. Put a system in place and stick to it and don't give up!"
Susanne Clinton- "The key for me is investing! Investing in friends, customers, ambassadors....network marketing is relationship marketing which has been a huge part of what has made me successful! Following up, showing u care, and helping others to better their life both health and wealth. Also being relatable and able to identify with others struggles is huge for me. Focusing on getting my ambassadors to silver and my silvers to gold had been key. Most Gold and above are 'all in' and in it for the long haul."
Candy Murnan- "So you’ve “seized" the opportunity to talk Plexus at random with someone but did you OWN that opportunity and maximize the effectiveness of it?
Here is what I mean..
I was watching my daughters school play this week and someone asks about my Pink Drink that I have in my hand. I give them a 30 sec rundown (Seized the chance to talk Plexus) but most importantly I ask if they are on FB and if I can friend request them. I do it on the spot and let them know (Owning the opportunity). After the play, on the ride home, I send her anPrivate Message with my link and a nice little note about the school play.
I started immediate engagement. I didn’t wait to get home to begin to engage. I committed to her and she to me immediately. It’s more than seizing the opportunity it’s about taking ownership of it. Own those random opportunities by taking immediate action to maximize the connection.
Live in the moment to SUCCEED in the future!"
Rayne Spaulding- ". Follow up, follow up, follow up has been the one consistent key to success. This includes customers as well as your team. Making yourself available and relatable is crucial as well. I'm sure these points have been made before me. Like you said there is no secret- you just have to believe in yourself, dig in, do it and never give up."
Breanne Parks- "Organization is key for me! Get good systems in place for customer follow up, preferred customer program (keeps referrals coming), team training, productive business activities, new customers, new ambassadors (duplication list) and ALWAYS stay consistent!! When you put systems in place and mark your calendar , you are more inclined to stick to it and your business will run more smoothly:)"
Angie Johnson- "Never treat your downline or customers like a dollar sign...listen to them. Even if they are complaining...some just need to be heard. Be real, be honest, but most of all be yourself. Follow up and do what you say you are going to do. Read books, listen to audios, go to meetings and learn as much as you can. Read what is in your back office as well. Post on all social media sites and share Plexus with everyone. If people trust you and see that you are a product of the product and you sincerely love what you do....they will be curious and want to know what makes you so happy. Ease drop on conversations for the opportunity to share Plexus. Treat people with respect and give them the same time you are willing to take away from them by sharing the opportunity with them. Make a new list of prospects often. Share your story. BE POSITIVE!!!!"
Ronnie Cuevas- (Coach)- "We are a product driven company! Therefore, Make it your Goal each and every month to sell 10 Decision Packs!! A $100.00 investment in your Business is all it takes!! Purchase 10 decision packs, Sell them, take the money and reinvest each month!! You will be finding 10 new potential customers and ambassadors each month!! Follow up with your prospects!!!"
Melissa Darby- "Become a product expert! It's critical to understand the ingredients used in our products and how they work as a system. Our bodies are systemic and Plexus products provide the maximum results when used as a system. The more you learn about our products, the more you fall in love with our company. Using the products daily is important. I'm able to share tips and suggestions with people because I'm a customer. Find 3 testimonials that have been life changing, resonate with you and keep them printed out. My husband has a life changing testimonial, as do several of my dearest friends that joined Plexus because of his story. When I hit a bump or we are weathering a storm as a team, reading these life changing testimonials puts it all back into perspective.
I live by the 80-20 rule. 80% of our team buys the products monthly. 10% do the business at some level, and 10% are ALL IN! I love the 80% where they are and invest my time & training in the 20%. It doesn't matter how deep they are down, dig for your diamonds in the rough and pour into them!
Opportunity meetings are the single most important tool we have! Encourage your customers & team members to share product testimonials at these events - it solidifies our company is backed by life changing products!
Finally, don't get up. EVER. Plexus is the biggest gift! The execs truly have our backs. Keep your passion at the tip of your tongue and share it with everyone....and you'll be unstoppable!"
Jennifer Pool- "You are going to face challenges in your every day life, your business and work. It's how you handle these challenges and problems that will make you or break you. Don't let a challenge keep you from success. If it doesn't challenge you, it won't change you! "Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful" Joshua J. Marine"
AND THERE YOU HAVE IT! Hard work. Dedication. Leadership. A servant heart. Making a plan and staying focused and you can achieve your dreams too!!!
