Announcements: First things First Director Celebration Dinners! Must RSVP, check www.melaleuca.com Get with anyone in your team that's close to Director and help them make sure they get it done so they can celebrate with us!
Good to Great Team = special seating, lots of thoughts and strategy around this new regular monthly event sponsored by the company. Good stuff!
The Great Recession is in full swing - so many unemployed, so many underemployed, and so many amazing people! Everybody's cheese has moved...which really feeds our Power Hour success! Don't be shy making those calls guys - this is OUR time to swing into action and help!!
The last 20 minutes of today's call was all about VALUE. Have you lost a customer or two this month? Last month? What can we do to help retain customers? This call is a MUST LISTEN. Paulette spells it out so clearly - not a sales gimmick, we are such a better deal than Crest, Colgate, Suave, Windex, Bleach, etc, etc, etc.

SELC Highlights, reports from Execs, Mela backing Director Dinners!
Approximately 500 Corporate and Executive Directors converged on Lake Las Vegas last weekend, and Paulette gave us a report on today's call! Lots of fun detail about how great the company is at valuing their leaders, along with some interesting facts and figures:
POSTURE
• 2,300 employees in the US alone
• 958,000 sq feet of manufacturing space
• 546 US & International Registered Trademarks
• 23 US Patents – 22 more Patent-Pending
• 350 Proprietary Formulas
We own all our formulas
Direct Sales Companies in the US
• 300-400 New Start Ups each year
• Fewer than 1 per year last more than 1 year
• We are on target to have one of the top 3 BEST years ever--!!
If you missed the call live, go listen to the recording! One of the things I came away with was the thought on a 90 day push - the idea that new leaders don't have permission to come up for air and reflect until that 90 day mark. Rather than evaluating progress all the time on the way to Director, this strategy puts a new leader's focus on advancing and building as quickly as possible for 90 days. I'm interested in hearing more on this strategy from Ed and Paulette in the near future!
Also looking forward to details coming out from Melaleuca on their backing of the Crescenzo's famous "Director Dinners". Eager to implement that in our business here!
Great quote that got flashed on the big screens at the event last weekend:
Challenge is inevitable, failure is optional.
Love it! Today's was a fun call - grab the podcast, or click the play button below!

Product updates - the field asked for it, and the company responded! The limited offering was so popular, Lemon Blossom Sol-U-Mel is not a permanent part of our product line.
Pro-flex 20 - big update there, listen in all the info. A great product has gotten much better and is now $13 cheaper!! What's the difference between Attain and Pro-flex? Paulette gave lots of great info on this products, go listen if you missed it!
Where's Melaleuca going? Ed has great commentary on this today!
What is support? If you are part of the "Support Team", what are your responsibilities? How about Placement strategy and psychology? Get your checklist from this call!
This call will be leveraged by many because of the extensive conversation around support responsibilities including placement strategies and the psychology and reasoning behind all of that. This will be a time saver for lots of us!! Thanks Paulette and Ed for another solid call!

Be the Captain of your team!
Ed and Paulette discuss the October promotions and the best strategy and mindset involved. The Event to Event energy building each month during this time of year is amazing and crucial to having your business pick up and/or keep momentum. This is the BEST quarter of the year for building our business, listen to this call if you missed it for great nuts and bolts discussion on some foundational stuff!
Category 2s - what is the right way to bring them in? Paulette's great analogy about building a house works so well for this topic. Even if you're building a small house, part time, blueprints are still needed, as are hammer and nails! Bottom line - Category 2s should be treated as part time Category 3s!
Ideas to help you as a leader implement the Weekly Leadership Connection Call as a launching pad for your teams' week. Team up on this, involve your people, and email reports to leadershipconnection@hotmail.com We should be leading with and leveraging this call every week with our teams - emailing/texting isn't enough!
