CONSULTANT GIVEAWAY

I've decided to continue the consultant giveaway for two more months.  Basically, sign up with me to be a consultant on my team (under me in Level 1) and I'll send you $100 in FREE food!  (you can pick what you'd like or I will send you the ones that are used most at parties).

This is a GREAT time to sign up as a consultant:  Now thru July 5th the consultant kits are 20% OFF!!!  What better time to get some AWESOME deals!!  This giveaway will count for June and continue in July and August!  (so if you signed up in June or registered a new consultant in June, I will be contacting you shortly to get your order).

GREAT WORK EVERYONE!!!

Put a Button on your Blog

This is a great way to get people to use your personal online store (website).  You can ask friends/family/acquaintances if they'll put the button on their website -- then any time someone clicks on it, it will automatically be directed to your personal page.  Anytime someone orders from your page, they are automatically set up as your customer and you get commissions -- PLUS since it remembers who they are via cookies, as long as they don't clear out their cookies or visit another consultant's website, they will always be linked to your site when they return to Shelf Reliance. 

There are many ways to do this, but if you're using blogspot, you would add a "gadget" to the desired location, using the HTML gadget.  Where you put the html code, you would put: 

<a border="0" href="http://www.myfamilythrives.shelfreliance.com" mce_href="http://www.myfamilythrives.shelfreliance.com" title="Shop Food Storage" target="_blank"><img src="http://myfamilythrives.shelfreliance.com/img/button.jpg" mce_src="http://myfamilythrives.shelfreliance.com/img/button.jpg" /></a>

BE SURE TO REPLACE "myfamilythrives" (which is my website) with your website name, so I don't get your traffic too (not that I wouldn't mind), but to be fair...

If someone isn't willing to put the button on their website, you can always ask them to post the url on their status, etc..  There are many ways to do viral advertising, I'm only just now learning about it.

New Documents

I sent these as an attachment, but in case you need to refer to them, they're under Consultant Documents in the right-hand column.

1. Post-Party Consultant Checklist:  helpful hints on what to do AFTER the party (also see the consultant party prep list).

2.  Host Cover Letter:  Introduction to hosting  a party, contact information, and how to place online orders as well as a brief overview of hostess benefits.  Before doing a party I put together a host packet (containing 2 price lists, 2 order forms, 20 invitations, some fliers on products, 40 guests handout, and the cover letter)  so that I can quickly give it to people who sign up to host and if I don't get a chance to explain everything, at least they have the packet of info. for when I talk to them on the phone.  Otherwise I mail it to them.

3.  New Party Presentation Script:  this is from the SR website under Consultant Materials, but I put it here for those who are not yet registered as consultants but would like a head start on studying the presentation.

4.  New Consultant Welcome Letter:  I just typed this up to welcome new consultants and give them a place to start their training while we wait for their kit to come in.
