4. I am so glad that you decided to join Thirty-One! I am confident that you will love your new role as a Thirty-One Consultant!! My name is Danielle Johnson. I am your Executive Director and our team name is “Danielle’s Dazzling Diamonds”!
I look forward to working with you and helping you to achieve your dreams and goals.
While you are waiting on your kit, start scheduling your launch party. This will give you a great start to your business and a jump start on meeting the wonderful incentives put in place by the company just for you! Those first few parties may make you a bit nervous, but once you get a few under your belt, you will be a pro!
5. I want to make sure you are aware of the Start Swell Program
This is just an incentive, not a requirement. But if you meet certain requirements over your first 4 months as a consultant, you will earn FREE product! And who doesn’t love FREE? So make sure you check it out:
https://www.thirtyonetoday.com/en/thirty-one-resources/incentives/startswell/spring-2016-startswell/
6. Did you know you can personalize your website address?
But to make your website more personal and professional you can change your website to a name you want — for instance my Thirty-One website is: http://www.mythirtyone.com/DanielleJohnson31 Here is a super quick video that shows you how to do this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNOicflSkPc
7. Your personal website, something we call the “back office”:
When you first go to your website, you will see the way it looks to your customers. This website is given to you for free for your first 3 months. After that, it is only $1.95 per month….AND well worth it!! Your website has the catalogs, the embroidery guide, the monthly specials, a place for customers to place an order and a place for new recruits to sign up under you.
To login, got to www.thirtyonetoday.com, and enter your ID and password that you created when you completed your online enrollment, then click on MANAGE MY BUSINESS. There is more in depth training on Thirty-One Today that will show you how to use all aspects of your back office. Be sure to take some time to view the training.
8. What are some things you need to do right away?
Make sure you order address labels for your catalogs. You can order these at vistaprint.com for very cheap, and sometimes free! You will just pay shipping. You can also purchase your business cards here with the same deal: www.vistaprint.com
**You don’t ever want a catalog to go out of your hands without your information on it! Vital information for those are: Name, Phone #, and website address**
9. This business is so much more fun with a friend to do it with!
It’s a proven fact that friends who start a business together are more successful. Who do you know that would have fun doing this with you or could really use the extra money? Did you know if you sign someone up during your first 4 months and they get qualified (sell their first $1000) you get a $100 bonus on your commission check??
The best way to build that excitement is to have a “kit opening” party. Invite a select few friends over to open your brand new kit when it gets there! You will get a shipping notification for when it will arrive!
I look forward to working with you and hope you are enjoying the start to your journey!
Sincerely,
Danielle Johnson, Executive Director
10. It’s time to spread the word about your new business! This is a great letter below that you can copy/paste and then edit to fit your own needs. Email this to everyone you know to let them know you’ve started your own business!
Dear Family and Friends,
I am excited to announce that I have begun an exciting new venture. As of today, I am now a consultant for a company called Thirty-One Gifts.
Thirty-One Gifts is one of America’s fastest-growing Direct Selling companies. Their products are stylish and functional at the same time. From beautiful handbags and purses to handy storage totes, baskets, stationery and more, there is truly something for everyone. And most of our products can be personalized to make your own unique statement. Thirty-One is more than just a company. They are people who believe in encouraging, recognizing and rewarding others for who they are. Through God’s strength, they’ve built a family of individuals who feel women deserve to treat themselves to something special. Their commitment is to provide women with a fulfilling, enjoyable and rewarding experience. The name of the company is derived from Proverbs 31, which is the basis for the company’s Christian philosophy of celebrating, encouraging and rewarding women. This philosophy, along with the company being relatively unknown in my area, was the selling point for me becoming a consultant.
I invite you to check out my website (???) to see what great products we offer! If you’re interested in a particular item, please let me know. If you see several items you want, consider hosting a home show, catalog show, online show or any combination of the three. Just because we may live in different states doesn’t mean you can’t benefit from being a hostess. Thirty-One Gifts offers great hostess rewards; I know you’ll agree. If you’re considering hosting a show, here are some show ideas: Mother/Daughter, schools (or other offices), fundraiser, Girl’s Night Out and “just because” (you want to help me out)!
I look forward to hearing from you and serving as your personal Thirty-One Gifts consultant. If you’re interested in hearing more about Thirty-One Gifts, I’ll be happy to share more information. I want my home-based business to succeed and am so excited to share this wonderful company with you.
With love,
