Day 11

Got up early just so I could see if there were any responses to the emails I had posted last night. And yes there were. I got a not interested from one person, a call me in the morning from another and good input on what they thought of the product. No one was disappointed and no one thought it was a nutty idea, oh and one that wanted to talk in December. One for me – now to follow up a little later in the morning.

As I was up so early, I follow-up with emails where I had to find new email addresses and re send my message. I also sent my 10 emails this morning plus one extra. It was sure tempting to send more but then I had to sit back and think that I might be over zealous about the business. If I send too many, it will be next to impossible to follow-up with the responses.

After my morning meetings I will be making those follow up calls to further the process. It is a numbers game! I have to figure out the response ratio for both customer and distributor and the actual conversion rates.

I am not sure how many people get to the business by putting processes together that they follow every day. I am setting up a system that will allow people to really be in business for themselves – the process will include tracking like a sales person, playing the numbers, dividing the tasks into manageable portions, setting up a corporation (if they are serious about making money), setting up QuickBooks to track sales and deduct expenses, management style guide for working with your down line, guidelines for how to keep your organization under your control and so on. I will be pitching putting on a seminar to deal with the business side using tools and methodologies that will work.

Wow what a busy day – I actually talked to several people on the phone and left several messages for a follow up. More emails coming in the evening. I will take time to follow up with everyone by the end of the week as I send out 10 emails every day. At least the responses are about 50% - only a couple are interested in talking further. I had two more emails to respond to and a phone call while I was out getting my hair cut. Am tired and will deal with the solutions tomorrow. I missed the meeting tonight because of conflicts that were planned long ago.

I managed to get my hair dresser on board with the product and I will be conducting an all day event for sales on Dec 3. I will have to find out more on how to sell product at an event and how much to order. I will set her up as a preferred customer so she can make money on the product that goes through her to her customers.
