Creating A Winning Attitude

Whether you are successful or not in this business is dependant I believe primarily on your attitude. I don't know too many people in business that became successful because they believed they were going to fail.
Have you heard the saying "garbage in garbage out"? What do you fill your mind with? How positive are you? Are you a doom and gloom kind of person or do wake up each day realizing the fabulous opportunities afford to you? It doesn't matter whether you live in the United States, Canada, Spain or Britain, chances are you have the chance to "live the dream".
This of coarse does not pertain only to your Avon business, it involves any venture, any relationship, and the interactions you have with others.
Jeffrey's comments below are very relevant to this topic and well worth a listen....



If you don't believe this works, go find you an Amway Representative and ask them about the business. Chances are they'll end up recruiting you!
For what it's worth in Amway they call it posture.

Kick Your Own Ass

I spoke witn our District sales Manager yesterday (at the supermarket actually). Thinking about it now it must have seemed strange for those shopping and overhearing our conversation...
I'm sure it must have seemed rather odd, a man becoming so involved in a conversation regarding AVON.
Thing is I'm not about "selling Avon" I'm about winning! In other words, if there are 100 Avon Representatives in our area my wife will be among the top if not the top. My job is to simply do all I can to help her. I get valuable information from our District Sales Manager. I take this information and get a snap shot of what's going on in our district, division and the entire country.
I was amazed to discover (I figured this out for myself) that apx 95% of the Ladies my wife had signed up had left the business! I thought, how is this possible? What are we doing wrong? Fact of the matter is this is common, only a few will rise to the top, most Ladies don't want to work at it, or spend their Avon money collected on other things instead of paying their Avon bill and they get removed.
So for those very few out there that want to make a go of it I've included the silver bullet, that little bit of information that, if you internalize it will make all the difference in the world.
Remember there are no gimmicks, no slick tricks to boost your sales. If you want to make gobs of money in this business, here's the formula....

* Get the brochures out there (lots of brochures)
* Get names of those that got the brochures (and phone number)
* FOLLOW-UP
* Teach others to do the same (lots of others)
* Be patient! Rome wasn't built in a day - you need more money - sell more stuff

When you get lazy and want to quit...

A New Look

Change is good right? For those that have been here before I hope you like the new format. I've noticed the polls are not coming up, I'll give it a few days and either remove them or reinstall them. You will notice I've added links over there to the right. The idea behind this blog and anything I do is to provide opinion, advice and I hope inspiration to those representatives that care to drop by. Having said that I'll be the first to admit that I don't know everything. Some of the links are mine but as time passes I'll be adding more as I surf the web in search of knowledge :)
I hope you'll drop by often and if you like share this site with others in your business.
