Yes, I agree. I don’t just want the sale, I want the customer loyalty as well and there is no loyalty without a relationship.

Omigosh, I totally agree. It’s very difficult when you don’t have patience and you really have that motivation to do whatever it takes to succeed. There’s that thin line that you need to know how not to cross..

Great post Jennifer! I like what Cindy wrote, it’s goes back to the simple idea that people want to do business with a HUMAN BEING. It’s good for our clients to see us as people who also have a life besides our direct sales business. When you build relationships you will build business.
Love & Success!

LOVE THIS! This is something my director has been pounding into our heads for the last 6 months. It’s all building relationships – with a recruiting lead, with our current team members, with our hostesses & customers. If we follow this, it will firmly put the focus back on them, not us. And if we let this same process carry over into life – with our family & friends – we will be so much happier and less disappointed! Yeah Jennifer!!! I love your blog!

That’s exactly it, Pam. And it’s up to leaders like you to be sure our teams understand this basic principle as well. Thanks for commenting.

Jen, thank you for this blog…and funny that I was talking with a fellow business associate just yesterday afternoon about THE EXACT SAME THING! Wow! A small group of us have been brainstorming on how exactly to build our direct sales business via Social Media, and this info is perfect timing on how to properly do this =)

I absolutely agree with you Jen! I really believe that the foundation of my business is about relationships, and I try to teach that to my team as well. With a business like mine (Creative Memories) the relationships develop over time at our workshops and events as people share their photos and stories. I feel like social media is a way to continue that process of relationship building- it’s not a place to pounce on new leads and make a quick sale.

Again, it goes back to the basic idea that people want to do business with a HUMAN BEING.
