Windex, Critical Activities 1 & 2, Fix your story!

Did You Know?
- Windex: Active ingredient is Ammonia (caustic chemical)
- Price comparison: Clear Power is about half the cost of Windex
- Ingredient comparison: Distilled White Vinegar and Melaleuca Oil..non caustic, non-toxic
- One of our best feel good and performance products.

...As usual, far superior in terms of value, performance, and ingredients.

Income Producing Activity vs Tension Relieving Activity:
- Critical Activities 1 & 2:
1. Keep Building Your Contact List
2. Set Appointments

Cell phone approach (from Ed) "Ya know I was going through my phone and saw ya there and thought I'd give you a ring and see what you're up to, and I'd like to fill you in on what I'm up to..."

"Would you mind if I report back to you in a month or so and let you know how it's going" (will help to keep your connections CURRENT)

Watch out for your FILTERS...don't skim through that list on your cell phone, really think about each person and make that approach! Don't decide for people - the answer is always NO when you don't call them! The worst approach is the one you don't make (the answer is always no!)

If you knew in advance that your contact would eventually thank you for contacting them, how eager would you be to pick up that phone?!

Hardest part of the business? The approach.
What is the definition of a NO? When you've made the approach, done the appointment with a full presentation, and your contact says "no", THAT is a no.
...so think back...how many no's have you gotten?

TONS of extra content in this call about proven approaches, mindset on approaches, key phrasing, etc.  If you're feeling weak in that area, or have people in your team who would find this useful, get the word out!

This call ends with Ed going through "Does your story stink"?  (HINT..if you think it does, you MUST listen to this call.  If you really think your story stinks, you won't succeed here.  Let Ed help you fix your story!

Launch Highlights, Binary Comp plans, and Mouth Rinse comparison!

Eddie walked through some of the ‘nuggets’ from the Trish Grinell segment of the Launch – lots of great learning points.
 
Fabulous conversation between Eddie and Paulette on what the Binary Compensation Plan of an MLM company is really all about – you’ll probably want to listen to this segment a couple of times – loaded with simple basics and common sense.
 
For the products segment Paulette went through a comparison between Listerine Total Care Mouth Wash vs our Breath Away Mouth Rinse including going over why it’s ‘new & improved’... always an eye opener when you ‘peel back the layers’ of value.
