How do you get participation?

Thursday, May 11th, 2006

Hey Everyone,

Here’s the question I’d like you to think about and join in with your ideas: “How can you get your team to want to join your coaching/training conference calls?”

Let’s keep this in mind – How many of you have ever seen a two year old in action? What’s their favorite word when their told to do something? We all know the answer “NO”!

Well ask yourself this…Did you get better as you got older at taking orders? I certainly didn’t. When someone “tells” me to do something my first reaction is not necessarily, “sure.” ;-)

I’m much more likely to get involved if I’m asked to do so. And certainly much more likely to if I’m enrolled.

So take a look at how you’re getting the word out to your team about conference calls and meetings etc. If you’re getting resistance it might be in the insistence!

I’m lying in bed last night wondering what would be a great way to utilize all your ideas for the benefit of all of you. Let me explain. In our six month Savvy Sponsoring program either Norine, Candye or myself typically throw out a question during the mastermind session.

    For example, “How do you coach your downline to develop new ‘warm’ relationships from a ‘cold market’?”
    Or
    “How can you get your team to want to join your coaching/training conference calls?

From there, as coach we might throw out an idea or two but typically someone in the mastermind shares something, then someone else shares, and then someone else…. (more…)
