Hi 1st Impressions Team!
Finding 90 mins - 2 hrs. to get together with friends is a treat we DESERVE! Whether women work full time or they're gearing up for a summer with the kids constantly in tow, women deserve the special treat of catching up with friends and getting FREE accessories while their friends get to shop at 1/2 off later.
It's a win-win for everyone!
QUESTION: What would YOU like to spend your extra May commissions on???
Shoes?
Spa treatments?
Eliminating debt?
A special dinner out?
A summer vacation rental?
It's all possible for you! All you have to do is a give your business some focused love and attention and you're on your way.
SCROLL DOWN FOR IDEAS TO HELP YOU ADD SALES and therefore COMMISSIONS into your May calendar with trunk shows and by selling on the go or online.
HELLO DOT DOLLARS!!
https://www.facebook.com/groups/1stImpressionsTeam/
With two weeks to go in May, we've got loads of time if even starting from scratch. To start, DOT DOLLARS are a great reason to reach out!
So many reasons to qualify with $500+ this month:
- One way to earn your StyleFix coupon (you're going to want that when the new Fall Line Launches)
- Business supply credits (no one should ever pay for our gorgeous lookbooks)
- $$$$ commissions!
WE KNOW YOUR COMMISSIONS ARE HIGHER WHEN YOU DO IN-HOME STYLE SESSIONS SO THAT SHOULD ALWAYS BE YOUR MAIN FOCUS.
Here are some suggestions for how to sell 500 PQV even if you are at zero right now:
1. Host your own Spring Trunk Show- double dipping is the best! Earn hostess rewards and commission at the same time!
2. Leverage the Dot Dollar earning period!!! JOIN ME AT NOON ET TODAY FOR THE FACEBOOK LIVE CHAT ON OUR TEAM PAGE! There are many posts about this topic on the Crown Jewels team page on Facebook...look there for images with Words to Say for booking and collecting outside orders. (Search "Dot Dollars" on the Crown Jewels team page...thank you Vera Chan!)
WORDS TO SAY:
Hi ____! EXCITING NEWS over here at Stella & Dot...our FAV customer promotion, Dot Dollars are back (receive a $25 credit to spend later for every $50 that you shop now). I have May __ or May ___ available for your personal styling & girls get together. Trust me - this is a no brainer - FREE style for you and Dot Dollars for your family & friends. Which date do you want to grab?
3. Partner with a local business in the next couple weeks for a Pop-up shop...i.e. Bar/spin studio, hair/nail salon
4. It's Graduation and Wedding season...reach out to family and friends with these images and Words to Say:
Hi _____! It's that time of the year - graduation & wedding season. Let me help you & your friends be known as THE BEST gift givers! When we get your friends together for a fun styling & gifting session, you'll get a gift too - a $250+ shopping spree & quality time with your friends! I have May ____ & May ___ available. What do you think? xo
5. Offer up appointments for PERSONAL STYLING from your home. Send out a Red Stamp Invite to your local friends, customers, etc. and invite them to bring any outfits over so you can help them finish the look with accessories. This is so easy to do from home as you can also get things down when people aren't there.
This is great to offer up 1x a month now through August to help your summer sales.
HOW CAN YOU ADD SALES BESIDES IN-HOME SHOWS?
Enlist your stylish friends to join in the fun!
Plus, her friends can earn Dot Dollars and you will receive more orders during the Dot Dollar redemption period! (June 23rd - July 5)
Bring a tote with lookbooks, order forms & Dottie to any BBQ YOU'RE going to! And don't forget to bring them to your office too! You're office-mates deserve irresistible style as well :)
Set up a bunch of online shows with your friends across the country who love style!
ONLINE SHOWS & FACEBOOK SHOWS
WTS: "Hi Annie! Hey I was dying when I saw these earrings because I immediately thought of how great theye would look on you. What do you think? I have a fun idea. Let's get them for you for FREE! How about doing a simple May online show since we're so far away and can't do an in-person pop up. You could get oodles of free summer accessories and your friends will be able to shop at 1/2 off later (when they earn Dot Dollar codes with sales of $50+). All you'd need is 4 individual orders totaling $300+ and you've got FREE credits coming to you! I can set up in a snap for you and you can email the link to your friends. I'll even send you a note you could copy and paste for them. We could also add a Facebook event element to it. What do you say?"
Set it up immediately in the lounge so she can start collecting orders right away.
Send her mini summer lookbooks and a big lookbook so she can share with her local friends.
Encourage her to join you by posting daily on the Facebook Event page to keep the enthusiasm going with her friends. The more activity, the higher the sales will be.
Check out who of your Facebook friends have birthdays coming up.
