As a direct sales leader, you will hold quite a few meetings. This list might help your team leaders to make meetings more effective. Or, if you are new to direct selling, these are some great tips for you.
- Take notes, write notes, remind people to have a journal or notepaper.
- Dress professionally. Even if it’s a Zoom, when you look professional, you’ll show up as more confident.
- Cheer for announcements and others.
- Jot a note to the speakers and trainers. Physical notes are awesome! Send a brief text right after the call.
- Do your socializing before and after the meeting. Don’t fill the chat with trivia or self-centered needs.
- Do your texting, bookwork, or checking your team sales before or after the meeting.
- Refuse to answer questions during the meeting. You can get pulled off the main topic and screw up your time management.
- Maintain eye contact. People can tell when you are reading texts or emails.
- Write your questions down.
- Inform your team members and guests of these suggestions.
