    Managing Meetings
    Plan/prepare - lack of purpose causes aimless meetings. Know why you're there - what the meeting is for.Unnecessary meetings waste time, and regular meetings, e.g. weekly, become habitual/traditional, regardless of need. Only have meetings when necessary, and cancel when not.Set agendas which are more than a
    Bookings are the lifeline of your business because they provide immediate income, future bookings, and lead to new team members. Following are four simple ways to increase the number of bookings you receive at every show.

    Ask Every Guest
    Without a doubt, the most successful Direct Sellers ASK EVERY GUEST “when” (not "if") they would like to hold a show/party of their own. The more people you ask, the better at it you'll get, and the more bookings you will receive. In addition, when you ask every guest to hold a show, you are increasing the chances for the current hostess to receive more credit.

    Get Your Hostess Involved
    Your Hostess is the key to receiving numerous bookings from every show. Ask your hostess to:

    1. Have at least one booking before her show
    2. Ask friends and relatives who cannot attend to hold a show of their own
    3. Let you know which guests are most likely to book a show
    4. Play at least one booking game at her show

    Also, plan to re-book your hostess for another show within 90 days.

    Control Your Schedule
    When scheduling shows, use only the current month calendar. If you present a future hostess with an entire year, chances are she will flip ahead to the next month to select her date.

    Highlight in a special color "Key Dates" on which you would like to book your next shows and offer an extra incentive for selecting the next open date.

    Expand your “income-earning hours” by offering creative daytime alternatives for shows, for example: Office Lunch-hour Shows, Five O'clock Happy Hours, Start-the Day Shows, and Sunday Brunch Shows.

    Reduce Cancellations
    Do not schedule shows more than 30 days in advance and always fill your booking schedule for the next week before moving to the following week.
