Week 3
FOLLOW UP
Follow-up is crucial for maintaining relationships, It shows commitment, professionalism, and appreciation. It keeps communication alive, nurtures opportunities, and addresses concerns.
I also recommend sending a follow-up text or phone call once a month for the next 12 months and you'll have a lifelong loyal customer.

WORKING PART TIME IS MAGICAL
TIME TO SET UP YOUR WEEKLY SCHEDULE
Setting up a weekly schedule is essential for effective time management and productivity. It helps allocate resources wisely, prioritize tasks, reduce stress, enhance productivity, and achieve goals. This approach promotes self-care, work-life balance, and adaptability while providing a clear plan for tasks and activities throughout the week.
3 WAYS TO BUILD A BUSINESS
IN-PERSON
This is when we meet people at the grocery store, at the hairdresser, at a party. Walking dates with friends, coffee dates, in homes, groups etc. Strike up a conversation and start asking questions. Get to know people better and make connections and LISTEN FOR NEEDS!!!!
You get the picture. The more people we connect with, the more people we get to offer better health to! Remember, it's a number's game.
ON LINE - SOCIAL MEDIA - FB, IG, Tik Tok, Twitter, You TUBE, however you choose, IF you choose!
Pick 1 (FB is usually easiest) and share to IG.
Some people run a business by POSTING AND PRAYING. This will not grow your business. Social media is another AVENUE for you to build your business, but you have to TALK TO PEOPLE TOO!
If you're going to build your business on social media, we will talk about this more in week 4.
We want to start BRANDING ourselves. This just simply means were going to show ourselves in everyday life, doing what we do. Mostly personal, with a little Shaklee sprinkled in. We are sharing what's important to us.
Start by picking 5 pillars.
1.) God
2.) Family/friends
3.) Food/Wine
4.) Shaklee/Wellness/Team
5.) Quotes
You create your own!!!! People buy from people they TRUST!!! PERIOD!!!
Portray a compassionate person who is trust-worthy, and people will buy from you over someone else. It's a fact!
Be your TRUE, AUTHENTIC SELF!!!
REFERRALS: We are ALWAYS going to ask for referrals in this business.
If you've share Shaklee and they buy and even when they haven't bought, ALWAYS ask for referrals:
"You've had such a wonderful journey this month and are loving the products, I'm looking for people just like you who would want better health or people who need additional income. Can I take two more minutes so we can talk about your 5 closest people and see if maybe they could benefit from Shaklee?"
You can tell them if those people sign up, they get 10.00 off their next order and the person gets 10.00 off their order. And THERE IS NO LIMIT!!!!

EXAMPLE #1 – MY STORY (Amber Corasaniti) Who you are and where you’ve been: I was tied to a part time time job that brought me no joy or sense of purpose and was at the beck and call of a corporate job that tied me to my home and limited vacation time. What’s happened in your life to cause you to look for more: When my kids went off to college, I felt lost and felt like I no longer made in a difference in life. My heart knew I wanted more. I knew my calling was to help people and to give back more and have time flexibility and the freedom to work my own hours from anywhere. It seemed like a tall order, but I found a way to have it all. How you heard about your company and why you had to be part of it: A friend of mine who had built a substantial business and was able to stay home with her children while bringing in money for their household, introduced me to the business. I recognized this was not only a way to replace my part time income, but it was a way for me to build a massive business with residual income that would pay me ,month after month and I could pass down to my kids and grandkids. What is it doing for you or going to do for you: I’m excited to grow a team and a customer base so others can have what I have. A life of luxurious trips, cars, flexibility all while helping others with their health and their finances. I really have it all and want others to have more options too. Here’s what it sounds like put all together: I was at the beck and call of a corporate job that brought me no joy or sense of purpose. I was limited to 2 weeks’ vacation, I was tied to Syracuse only, and I “earned” a 1% raise no matter how hard I worked. And quite frankly, I was sick of it. You know, times are ALWAYS tough accordingly to corporate America. A friend of mine who was an occupational therapist introduced me to the company because she was able to leave corporate American and raise her two kids, all while building a business from home. I recognized this was not only a way to replace my part time income, but a way for me to build a massive business of residual income that I could pass down to my kids and grandkids. A life of luxurious trips, cars, and flexibility to do the things I wanted to do. And the products changed my life. I really have it all, and I’m so excited to help others with their health and grow a team and a customer base so others can have what I have. (About 56 seconds)

It’s a tall order for a working mom, but I’ve found a way to have it. 3.How you heard about your company and why you had to be part of it: My PR client introduced me to Shaklee. She was funding her business she asked me to promote through a side job sharing her Shaklee business. I recognized this was a way to build my exit strategy from corporate America to the lifestyle I really wanted. 4.What is it doing for you or going to do for you: I’m excited to grow a team and a customer base around my PR practice , the kids, and all the other things on my plate, to create a lifestyle I want. And I’m excited to help others have more options too. Here’s what it sounds like put all together: I’ve been tied to billable hours and at the beck and call of my clients for my entire career – first as a lawyer, then as a PR Exec.
