1. Provide your team with a monthly newsletter with lots of content to help them succeed in their business. Share your tips that have worked well with recruiting, sales, and home parties. If you find an article of interest save it for future use. Create a newsletter folder on your computer where you can save these types of ideas. Nowadays mostly everyone has email, but offer postal mail to those who don't have email.
Here are some useful email marketing programs to checkout for your newsletter:
www.constantcontact.com
www.icontact.com
www.bravenet.com There is a free option!!
2. Offer local team meetings for your teammates who live nearby. Also offer long distance team meetings by chat or conference call for your long distance teammates. Try FREE Conference Call for long distance meetings!
Establish a subject matter for your team meetings and focus on that topic--booking, increasing sales, craft fairs, etc. Print out information to share with your teammates. Remember to share both offline and online ideas depending on your teammates sales/sponsoring preferences. Discuss your monthly team incentive and provide a tracking sheet for them to use.
3. Once you have a few members on your team, offer a monthly incentive! Remember, you don't have to take out a loan for your incentives!! Start with whatever you can afford and build as your team grows. You could offer your company's business supplies, a small gift card to Staples, Kinkos, etc. for purchasing office supplies, or an online gift certificate to any number of websites to help your teammates build their business. Here are a few:
www.thebooster.com
www.mygirlfriendshouse.com
www.orientaltrading.com
www.consultantcorner.biz
www.expressyourselfonline.com
4. Throughout the month don't forget to congratulate your teammates for their accomplishments, no matter how small. Send a card or a note acknowledging their achievements.
Having constant weekly or monthly contact with your teammates will keep them motivated and successful in their business. Everyone can experience a slump, and I know it has greatly helped me in the past to receive a note or call from my upline.
