The nature of our business requires us to continually introduce new people to our teams because we don’t retain everyone we recruit.  But recruiting is more than a necessity: recruiting new people keeps us fresh, motivated, and fulfilled.  Think about the pride and excitement you have when you bring in a new, sharp seller.

  • New consultants bring fresh energy to your work.
  • New consultants follow your lead.
  • New consultants bring new sales to your team.
  • New consultants listen to you.
  • New consultants are the future leaders of your business.

As we get so busy taking care of our own personal business, trying to revive consultants who have lost interest in their personal business, attempting to coach people who may not want to grow their business, we can lose sight of the most valuable activity to explode our success.

So where are you meeting new people?

What activities are you putting into your schedule to provide you the opportunity to meet new people?

How do you ask for referrals?

These are the topics we most often coach around with top sales leaders.  The reality is that our lives are dynamic:  we are constantly adding people to our circle of influence.

As our influence expands, it is important for us never to take our opportunities for granted.

People long for what you have.  They want freedom, time with their family, income that isn’t tied to an hourly wage and want to dream again.

See your conversations as a gift to those around you.  You never know whose life you are going to change.
