Amazing Friends...

Let me bring you up to speed. In March I ended up #12. :( My first month out of the top ten. BUMMER! But...let me tell you about some good happenings that took place in Feb and March! So far I had only focused my business on selling through home shows. I began to toy with the idea of building a team. But I just didn't know how to start. God has an amazing way of working sometimes. This random girl messages me on facebook and wants to know about My Vintage Baby and possibly sign up. I guess that was my answer, yes, I am building a business. So the message basically said that she wanted to talk with someone actually in the business. She chose me because I was wearing an OU Sooners shirt in my fb profile pic. LOL! I am originally from Oklahoma and we are sooner fans! Who is this random girl?? Cassity Reed! My first team member and she is a fabby one! She hit the ground running. She and I began to talk almost daily. She had tons of questions and I had the answers. The funny thing is, when we talked, it seemed like we had been friends forever. We always refer to each other as "my friend". I consider her a great friend...however, I have never even met her in person yet! LOL! After Cassity, several others began to inquire through my website and were given to me through corporate. (when you are top ten, you get orders and prospects from the corporate site) GREAT PERK! I quickly became a team leader...to date I have about 25 people on my team total...and growing!!
Now...back to that #12 status...uggh! Had to step up my game again. I thought I was doing everything I could! Maybe I wasn't? Time for some one-on-one coaching with the sales queen, Jana! She gave me some great tips on hostess coaching to help decrease my number of cancelled shows. April was a little better, #10 and May was even better...#3!!! In May Cassity and I had a friendly competition going. When the numbers came out mid month, I was #1 and she was #2. I called her and she told me "I'm gonna knock you off!" It was so on...the final numbers came in and there she was #2! She totally beat me. Guess what?? Fine with me...because she was on my team and I am getting paid on her sales! Whoop! Cassity, you go girl! ;)
