February 2016 Edition
January Recap
Business to date: January is typically a slower month in retail, however, as a company we surpassed December numbers and nearly hit our November numbers. Way to go!! With the addition of #MakeupMondays in February and the FREE Lustro Body Oil in Rose Neroli for every purchase of $200+, as well as our beautiful Valentines' Gift Sets, we are looking forward to a stellar month. I can't wait to see what's in store for all of you. In the meantime, I've included some company and team information below to help you finish February on a high note!! Please reach out to me if you have any questions or need some ideas on reaching your goals for the month.
#MakeupMonday
If you aren't able to find someone to host, host your own social or offer a Mystery Hostess Social to all of your clients. This is a great way for someone to experience the benefits of hosting without any of the the work involved in putting something together. All orders you receive on the Monday of your choice will go into a drawing and the winner will receive all of the rewards based on the sales gathered. I offered this in December to my clients and it was a big hit. The person that won, was so excited to earn 2 Free items and 2 items at 50% off. Reach out if you have any questions on hosting this month.
Also, please follow up with all of your clients that have purchased any of our cosmetics in the past and let them know about our promotion each Monday. This may prompt them to want to try more products with the added bonus of earning a FREE gift with purchase.
FREE Lustro Body Oil in Rose Neroli ($78 value) with purchase of $200+
Be sure to follow up with any clients that purchased this as a gift over the holidays or have purchased the Rosemary + Citrus Body Oil and see if they want to get it for FREE this month. Plus, if they place an order of $200+ on any #MakeupMonday this month and include the Free gift of the day, they double their bonus that day.
Valentine's Day Gift Sets
Another idea is to offer up the Best of Lips Gift Set as part of a drawing to all those that place an order next week. This is a great way to drive some additional business too!
The Charcoal Cleansing Bar is all the rage!!
Dash to Director
New Beautycounter Compensation Plan
Overall, the changes being made make a lot of sense for the long term growth of the company and still keep us at the top in compensation compared to other direct retail companies. Plus, this is a great time to start building your Band of Beauty membership base with being paid 25% on member orders starting April 1st. Clients who are members have a reorder rate of 62% vs regular clients that order at a 12% rate, so there is a huge benefit to signing your clients up as members. With the change in shipping fees in January, this has been a great selling point with my current client base and many more are taking advantage of the Free shipping on orders over $100+ and also accumulating a $25 product credit for every $300 spent. It's a win-win for everyone. Be sure you are offering our Band of Beauty membership to everyone that places an order.
Let's Get Back to Basics!
Whether you've been doing this for almost a year or just a few months, Beautycounter has provided some great new training tools BTC for all of us to learn ways to get the most from our businesses. When I started a year and a half ago, none of this amazing training existed. I was so fortunate to have the help and support from my awesome upline mentor to help me get past the road blocks that I thought were standing in my way and really build a great business that I am so proud of. The beauty of this job is that it’s not only inspiring, but lucrative as well. Don’t we all deserve the best shot at making this what we want it to be for ourselves? And if we grow our team, we will help grow this movement in the direction it needs to go and we will have a real impact on the personal care industry.
I invite you to join us as we go step by step through the 3 training modules BTC. Whether you're a new consultant or a seasoned leader, this training will help you grow your business and become a better mentor and coach. As with anything, it's important to have a strong foundation in order to thrive.
So here's the plan. We will do one module per week. This will officially start Feb 3rd and the 1st week will run through Feb 12th. The 2nd week will run Feb 13th through Feb 19th and the 3rd week will run Feb 20th through Feb 26th. I'll send out an email to everyone at the end of each week and all you have to do is comment about your biggest take-a-way. Each week that your reply to me with your feedback, you'll be entered to win. If you post all 3 weeks you'll be entered to win our grand prize. The challenge to you is to carve out time to go through the training. In other words - focused, dedicated time working in front of your computer, watching the videos, filling out the worksheets, and taking the action steps.
