HOW TO ASK
Using the PUB Method... Personal - Useful - Brief
There is no perfect way to ask. We are always tweaking our language to improve the quality of our ASKS and ask that you do the same.
Before you start asking have a look at the video called GO FOR NO.
Formula for Reachout Verbiage
Make it PERSONAL: Find something personal, like a compliment, to them that you can start your message off with. Make the person on the other side of the screen feel important instead of like a number. Do your research.
- You are someone that seems like...
- It looks/seems/sounds like you...
- What's so great.interesting about you...
- While following you it was so surprising that...
- Your XYZ looked incredible/fantastic/tough
Make it USEFUL: Why would jumping on/listening to a 15 min call about the opportunity/program be useful for them? Do some research and find out where they may be in their lives or a pain point that this opportunity/program could help solve.
- Deliver answers to their toughest questions...
- Simplify something that they may think is complicated
- Can you explain how you can save them time, money or pain
- Can you inspire, entertain, or challenge them in some way
- Can you connect them to a credible and trustworthy source - a common friend that has tried the program and had success?
Make it BRIEF: In today’s world, we have 2.5 seconds (10 words) to persuade someone to read the rest of your message. Skip the niceties/warm-up, and get to the main point. Make sure your message is less than one scroll on a mobile phone.
EXAMPLES
Dream Team Invites
- Make it personal—What made you think of this person? What about her/him would help them succeed? What is something they need, desire, or is missing in their life?
- Make it useful—In what way would Arbonne be able to solve that desire, need or what is missing?
- Make it brief—Be succinct and invite them to “just” take a look and join you in a video chat.

You are on my mind, girl…so I’m going to take the leap and tell you what I’m thinking.
