In order to have a successful Direct Sales Business, you have to look at it similar to a owning a store. Each and Every day you must OPEN YOUR BUSINESS. Think of it as putting a key in the door and flipping the sign to OPEN! What are you doing today and every day to OPEN your Direct Sales Business?? Here's a little schedule I challenge you all to follow and see what it does for your business...Try and spend at least 1-2 hours a day building your business!

~Mail Out Monday
~Take Out Tuesday
~Work Your Email List Wednesday
~Talk It Up Thursday
~Facebook Friday
~Social Media Saturday

Also, throughout this challenge, be sure to keep catalogs, business cards, and samples on hand. GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE!!

Monday - mail out atleast ONE piece of literature. (More if possible And NOT email!!) It can be a new catalog or a coupon... host, or join brochure. Choose one person, HANDWRITE a little note to go with it and mail it! Write a thank you to a hostess. Put a business card in with your bills.

Tuesday - Grab your catalogs, brochures, or samples and take them everywhere you go on Tuesday. If you don't have anywhere to go...find someplace to go! Work, Starbucks, McDonalds, in line at the grocery store…somewhere…anywhere…JUST SHARE!

Wednesday –Work on your email list. Add any friends from facebook, past parties and events. Add extra email addresses you have aquired into your O2 Connection newsletter database. Mail out a weekly special or remind them of your site for gift giving.

Thursday - Call and talk to TEN people about your business. Talk to them about joining your team, hosting a party or purchasing something! This is on the phone (or face-to-face talk)...no email/Facebook talk please.  Give a call to a former host or customer to ask how they are enjoying their locket.
NOTE: Making a goal of talking to 10 people a day (all forms of contacts are great) is a really good way to fill your calendar and build your team fast. Even if you do not hit your goal everyday I guarantee you will talk to more people than if you had not been working on that goal :)

Friday – Facebook Friday! Work your facebook. Getting new likes/networking.

Social Media Saturday-Join twitter, instagram, pinterest and linked in. Post pics. Tweet it up. Facebook your friends about hosting a party or joining your team.

AND a few more tips for what to do when your business is "open"...

*Try and engage your fans daily with a post on your facebook fan page

*Use Instagram and Pinterest to share pics of some of our beautiful custom creations!

* Make sure you always have at least 3 sponsor packets /hostess packets ready to go at all times.

*If you have blank business cards print coupons on them to pass out. 

*Check O2 loop and back office once daily for current news!

*Keep your eye out for special vendor events in your area that you may be worth setting up your table.  You never know where your next hostess or team member may be!

*BE YOU! And wear your lockets, tagged collection and soho collection pieces as much as you possibly can when you are out and about. Everyone that asks you about your jewelry is a potential Hostess or Designer!

*Be a force for good. To give is better than to receive.

Hope this helps...it helped me when I found it and started to apply :)
