    Remember What Your Mother Told You (Repetition Works!)
    What message from Mom (or Dad) sticks with you? Is it “Always wear clean underwear”? How about “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all”? Or is it something else entirely? Mine is “Clean your plate.” (This could explain the excess poundage around my hips!)These bits of advice stick with us for one big reason – REPETITION. You and I heard these messages again…and again…an

    Free Sales Tip #93: Always Ask For The Sale
    Do you ask for the sale every time you get a new inquiry from a prospect or client? Every time you make a sales presentation? Every time you do a product demonstration? Here's a free tip. If you don't ask for the sale every time, you should. Recent studies have shown that just merely asking for the sale can skyrocket sales and sales closing rates.So how do you ask for the sale?Asking for t
    Online parties are a great alternative to the traditional home parties done by Direct Sales companies in the past. They are very similar, yet at the same time, so very different.

    Home parties are just as they sound, A party in the home. They can be very time consuming and require the Representative to be comfortable talking in front of crowds of people, and generally to have products on hand, and demonstrate. No doubt, seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling products is a great way to get sales, but it can also be costly if you must pay for your demonstration products!

    Online parties are great in the fact that you dont have to worry about how you look or sound, you can even do them in your pajamas (as I have done many times!), you do not have to be comfortable talking to a crowd, you just have to be able to type into a chat room full of people! There is no need to have product on hand, you can send your website address out and people can look at your "online brochure" and ask questions from there.

    Now for the basics:

    Land Your Sales Or Marketing Dream Job
    A Guide to Optimizing Your Career SearchIt’s no secret that we live in a full-employment economy these days, with unemployment rates running as low as 5% in most parts of the country.

    Sales Culture – Beware Of The Broken Window
    There’s a park I walk through on the way home each day. It used to be a very pretty park with vast areas of green freshly clipped grass, commemorative benches with gleaming plaques, pristine toilets that won countless awards, trees that have been there for decades and freshly painted playground equipment for the kids to climb over.About a year ago I happened to notice that one of the windows of t

    •Be prepared! For almost every party I do I create a script to use. I create the outline of what I am hoping to accomplish during the party and then in a notepad file I write down what I am planning to say, along with my website address, special offers, email address, etc, so that it can be easily posted throughout the party.

    •If you have late arrivals be sure to repost your website, email and special offers when they arrive.

    •If you choose to play games, make sure they are games that pertain to your products and/or services. Games that make the party goer visit your website and look around for answers are the best! (Product Name Scrambles, Description/Product Matches, etc)

    •It is a good idea to let your special offers be extended for a couple days after the party, in case the attendees do not see something they are interested in at that moment, but gives them a chance to save your information for awhile in case they think of something they want that you might be able to offer.

    •One thing that has been fairly successful for me is for every online party that I do, I offer free shipping on orders over a certain amount, a free gift with every order (use your profits to purchase something small), and I choose a random item to offer a big discount on if they order it that night. People LOVE anything free and discounts!
