Are You Ready to Go Into Momentum?
A little over three years ago I started to coach Usborne Consultants. At that time, I made a commitment to be part of driving Usborne Books into momentum. How can Usborne Books, the company at large (Canada or United States) go into momentum?
The answer is, of course, only if your business goes into momentum.
What Is Momentum?
What do we mean by momentum? It simply means, more people coming into your business than going out.
How do you do that?
- You need to be confident in your skills as a sponsor.
- You recruit and train with simple easy to follow systems.
- You train and coach those systems (duplication) to your downline.
- Plus, your team personifies a friendly, supportive business culture.
What does business culture mean? It does not mean pushy, unfriendly, or uncaring. It means professional, confident and empowering.
This might sound like a tall order but it really is common business sense. Yes, it takes time to accomplish – like all things. But anyone who wants to develop a strong thriving Usborne Books business can develop these tools. And it does not mean you have to work 20, 30 or 40 hours a week at your business. It means you work smart in your business each and every working hour you put into your business. I’m going to repeat that: Smart each and every time - not some of the time.
What does it mean to work Smart?
Over the last few years the Usborne Savvy Sponsoring MasterMind coaching cohorts have developed team building skills, tools and ideas that are unique to Usborne Books. Items like the:
- Success Agreement
- Supervisor Agreement
- Bronzing Chart
- Supervisor Birthing Chart
- MasterMind Team Call
- Take a Look Call
And as Shelia Hallam calls it, the “business revolutionizing” Napkin Business Presentation. These are the kinds of tools that allow you to recruit, and train in less time. Thus, you work your business smarter in less time, rather than harder, and in every spare hour you can give it.
The Usborne Savvy Sponsoring Coaching Program is well on its way to strengthening teams throughout Usborne Books in order to make momentum a reality for those teams. We know because Usborne Savvy Sponsoring clients consistently walk across the stage at convention. Click here to read what Usborne Consultants say about the program. Is it time that you joined them?
Is the Usborne Savvy Sponsoring Program For You?
Does your business frustrate you? I don’t mean occasionally frustrate you. Most everything we do will have a frustrating component to it occasionally. But if you feel that most of what you do seems to be of no avail in creating success for yourself and your team…that’s frustration.
Do you find yourself procrastinating when it is time to go to work? Putting off recruiting calls will stall your central growth. Without continuous growth in your central group, your business has no way to go into momentum.
Do you loose track of people with whom you should be following up? Loosing a lead makes everything you did to get that lead a complete waste of time. Judicious follow up is a major underpinning to a strong business. You, and your team, must have in place, a well thought-out simple follow up system to make everything you do count.
Do you feel like you have to chase your team to get them to training? I’m known as the not so warm and fuzzy coach. I intend no insult with what I am about to say. But if people are not coming to your training, it typically is for one of two reasons:
- They are not really interested (committed) in building a business
- They do not see real value in the training, so they don’t come.
Too often trainings are about the soft, warm and fuzzy (read easy) things. Things like inventory, putting in orders and giving recruits lists of things to do. If you want people to come to your trainings, you need to be working with the committed and you must offer real nuts and bolts how to do this business training. If people are unsure of what to do, they typically do nothing.
If you found yourself saying yes to these things, it may be time for you to join the Usborne Savvy Sponsoring program. It definitely will be worth your time to do your due diligence and know what we offer.
How The Program Works
There are three ways to get your information. There is the Big Picture, the Detailed Picture and the Testimonials from Usborne Consultants.

Click here for the details on how the program is run.
If you like to hear it from those who have gone before you, then Click Here.
The working environment of the program is a safe MasterMind group. Out of these groups, in every company with which we have worked, come unique business building tools and strategies. In this program, the first of the three Savvy Sponsoring programs, we offer the foundational tools to build a strong business.
It is our opinion, based on years of experience as an independent consultant and coach to the network marketing industry, (click here to read about Jillian’s 20 year history with network marketing) a strong foundation is necessary in order to build a thriving business. If you take shortcuts in the beginning and don’t plan for your business’s growth, your business, like a house without a good foundation, will topple.
Each month a new skill will be introduced. One month you will learn to make "Time" your friend rather than something you never have enough of. Through our Vision exercise you will connect what you do each day to your vision. You will also live a life that you design. No longer will you live in reaction to what happens each day.
Using the Work Triangle (inspired by Timothy Gallwey's "Inner Game of Work"
In another month, we dig into the nuts and bolts of “what to say.” This module is designed to give you the tools to learn to be nimble “on your feet” in any conversation.
No business course would be complete without visiting the necessary systems to keep your business running smoothly (and you sane). This module will introduce the idea of systems. You will begin to map what you already do. Plus, look at what you “don’t do.” The goal is to begin to put into place duplicable recruiting, training. promoting and event systems that you not only use but pass along to your downline.
And when things feel too big to handle, we will teach you to fall back on the Five Steps to Work Less and Make More Money, to determine exactly where you are in your process and what you are to do next. Not magic, but a stable, simple to use system, to keep you sane and moving forward.
The program also gives you an opportunity, each week that we meet, to have a private coaching session with Jillian. In this session, you can talk about anything you wish. You are not required to stay “on topic.” The private one-on-one coaching is what makes this course stand out from all others. We get to the real issues here and knock them out of your way one at a time.

There are three MasterMind calls a month. They typically last an hour. Occasionally they last a bit longer. There are a total of 18 sessions.
All calls are recorded. If you need to leave early or cannot make a call, you can listen to the recording at your convenience. Typically, calls are up on your client website by first thing the next morning.
If you miss a call you can still interact with the class. We have an ‘email loop’ that easily connects you to everyone else. This allows you to easily comment or ask questions of an individual or the entire group. The email loop allows you to be part of the discussion when you cannot attend the MasterMind calls because of schedule conflicts.
Your private coaching sessions (the coaching gym) are each week that we meet for the MasterMind session. Like the MasterMind session they are simple to access. You use your telephone to dial into the coaching gym number.
All the notes and worksheets for each week are posted on the client website. You can download the notes, worksheets, and audios to read and listen to at your convenience. You are encouraged to share the notes and worksheets with your team as long as you leave them in our format, keeping our contact information and logo. The audios are for your ears only. Please do not share them with your team.
The program is 18 weeks long. Typically we meet the first three weeks of the month and then take the last week of the month as a break.
There is absolutely no homework given in this class for homework sake. Everything you are asked to do will benefit your business. We are focused on making your business more enjoyable for both you and your team and at the same time making it more profitable.

"Jillian’s coaching classes have been invaluable to me both personally and in my Usborne Books At Home business. Through the weekly mastermind calls, class notes and worksheets and weekly coaching appointments, I have not only been given practical tools for running my business, but also the encouragement and accountability to do the things that I am learning–even if it means going out of my comfort zone to implement change.
My life has become more balanced, my personal sales have increased and I am excited about helping the ladies on my team grow their businesses. I also have another business that compliments my Usborne business but I had decided that I could not do both and was planning to give it up. Jillian showed me ways to leverage my time and energy so that I can keep that business and continue helping my home schooling customers."

"I was a skeptic - a huge skeptic. Normally, I'm not. This time, it took:
- a teleconference call
- meeting Jillian in person
- another teleconference call
- and a couple long discussions with my co-mentor and my team supervisors to even get me considering (Savvy Sponsoring training.)
Why? Well, I probably was very dismissive of her coaching sessions due primarily to the cost. I didn't think I was worth it. I couldn't imagine what she had to offer that would change my business so profoundly, that I'd recoup the cost. But, I also couldn't stand the idea of not knowing. I hate thinking, "what if?" So, I signed up for the classes with the money-back guarantee. (If you plug in to everything for one month and don’t think it will work for you, no charge.)
…It was worth the price of admission in order to go through this process of change. Training is great. I love training.
What is different about this? It is a process of long-term change and growth that can only truly be effective if it happens in increments over time. It is the encouragement you get along the way. This coaching and training is helping me go back and build a proper foundation …
… I decided to take a risk....and it's already paying off!"

"I am thoroughly enjoying the 6 Month Coaching Program with Jillian Middleton and fellow Usborne Leaders. It has helped me to regain balance between my home and business while creating an intentional forward movement to increase our group's potential for earning increased business income in the upcoming year.
I feel more focused, intentional, and surprisingly calmer with a delightful outlook that I'm ready to start each day as the "CEO of my business". Thanks to this course, our group is getting to know that the best way to measure your success for today is to reflect on, "How many relationships I built today."

"Hi Jillian,
I just wanted to say thank you for your class and for your coaching. Because of what I have learned in your class, I am seeing my group grow and grow stronger, and for the last two months my [personal sales were not the largest part of my group sales.
Using store hours, as you have taught, has made me feel more in control of my business. And, I know I can put [my business] down for the day or week, because I have put in the time I need. The new consultants in my group who are using your 5 Steps to Work Less and Make Money are seeing results.
Most importantly, I stuck with the plan for the Mastermind Call even when no one was attending except me and another supervisor ( my business buddy). Eventually someone showed up and now we have regulars attending the calls. Those who attend are seeing that time pay off for them.
Through the course and your coaching, I feel more like a professional than a dabbling mommy and the income is starting to follow that path, too."
With great appreciation,

"Thought you would like to know that by the first of next week, I should have 2 new recruits. One of the ladies thanked me for calling her back...I even had a lady call me yesterday to book a show with me and my calendar was so full that I passed her on to an active downline who had 6 shows booked already for next month. November is going to be one of my skydiving months…a goal I set for my team: 3 months of an override check of $1500 and I will jump out of a plane because we are soaring....YES.
Thank you for the push...I THINK!!!!!"

"I recently began using all the great info I've taken from your coaching and I feel much more comfortable in my business. Going back to the article you wrote after the convention about taking one aspect of your business and working on it, I have been practicing my presentation. Previously it was too long-winded. Now it is short, sweet and to the point. I recently trained a new recruit (unfortunately not mine but a recruit of mine). The feed back I got from her and her friends about her kick-off show let me know I had nailed it! Later, I received a letter from her thanking me for the training and support. She is so excited and comfortable with her new business it was a wonderful thing to see. I expect this fall season to be a refreshing change because I have changed.
Thanks!"

"In the beginning when Jillian coached me to use a calendar and put things in my calendar, I fought it. I am a big lists person and I thought, " I don't need a calendar, I have my lists." However, after giving it a try, I found that it really did work. I used it for about a month and then went away on holidays. After coming back from holidays, things were a little hairy and I felt like I was drowning in work. I did not use my calendar, thinking I don't need that, I can do it from my lists. Well, after about one week of drowning, I decided I would go back to the calendar to see if it would make a difference. Well, guess what....IT DID!!!
I still struggle in making myself enter everything into my calendar but I have promised myself that I will continue to work with it. I have seen the results of working with the calendar and how much easier and stress free my life can be with it. Maybe you can teach an old dog new tricks! :)
Thank-you so much for all that you have done for me in this class. I will continue to put your suggestions into practice and eventually it will just become natural for me and I will wonder how I ever survived before you came along!"

"I love Jillian's coaching program for many reasons. Perhaps the two most important reasons are:
- my executive group sales have increased about 20% this fall over the year before and
- I have more flexibility in my schedule than I ever had before due to the time management part of her coaching.
I highly recommend her program."
Thank you Jillian (Hugs)

Hi Jillian,
I crunched my numbers for 2008 over 2007 and here's what I found:
2007 Central Group sales = 61669.61
2008 Central Group Sales = 85377.00
Net change = 38.4%

The Usborne Books Challenge
Recently, in Canada and the United States, Usborne Books ran great recruiting promotions. People were signing up business builders and hobbyists left and right. How did that work for you?
- Did you miss it all together and have little or no growth.
- Did you find yourself growing so quickly that you self sabotaged and stopped talking to people or didn’t make timely following up calls?
- Did you find yourself in overwhelm wondering how you were going to ‘train them all?’
Many of you, I’m sure took full advantage of the Usborne promotions and are diligently training those who came aboard to bronze in their incentive period. But if that isn’t what happened for you, isn’t it time to make a change?
Usborne Books will offer more promotions. Are you going to be ready for the next one?
Every activity in the Savvy Sponsoring Program facilitates the sustainable growth of your business. There is absolutely no homework for homework sake. Every action you take during the course is designed to strengthen your business. If you are still unsure if this program will work for you, read what Becky Dean and Teresa Stothers have to say:
"We have a very large team so Jillian's advanced ‘Savvy You’ coaching program was helpful in that the ideas were much more advanced than other speakers or training that we have heard. Instead of focusing on organizational methods that will work only with small numbers - it was focusing on creating systems that would effectively support hundreds. It was also a great way for us to "hear" how to coach our team. Plus, the one-on-one coaching allowed us to have someone with business savvy that we could bounce ideas around with. As a result, we have substantially increased our rate of recruiting and promoting out supervisors."

"I just wanted to say thank you for the classes that I took with you. There were awesomely helpful during this month when I find myself training a group of 15 brand new consultants. I am not freaking out as I would have because of the work that I did while taking your class. Thanks for teaching us how to put systems in place that accommodate growth!!"
