You Won't find Our Products in Stores...Why Not?

Mark Hughes: From his trainings 

Why we don't sell our products in stores? 
"Because, is the store owner going to call you back up and ask you 'how are you doing'? 
Is the store owner going to cheer you on and help you stay focused and remain confident and tell you go, go, go? 
No, that's not going to happen from the store, or the TV set." 

That's why we don't do it this way. 

"You guys are the customer's cheering squad, that keeps them on track, until they get enough confidence, that they make enough progress, that they believe in themselves, so that they finally start doing it for themselves and taking it every day." 

Because in the beginning they may be just using it for you, and you keep coaching them and encouraging them and once they get enough confidence that they're losing weight, they finally start feeling like they have a handle on this stuff and think, 
"I'm going to keep going until I lose all my weight" and they keep using the products and they lose all their weight!!

"Sometimes, you're the only person that believes in the person that you sold the product to, at all, and we have to remember that." 

It's that phone call/text/chat that you make. This is why it's so important to 'follow up"

I can still hear Mark's voice, teaching us how important to follow up, helping people to change their lives.

Mentorship is a Privilege

This is a quote from a very dear man, my friend & mentor of many years, Michael, I pray I can be This kind of mentor to everyone who comes into my life.....

#Koachkay

Mentorship is a privilege. It doesn't come with getting started in business with me, therefore, I am your mentor.

Similar to being someone's coach the playing field must be defined, embraced by both parties, respected, tended to and protected.

Being a mentor to someone is 'all in' not just when they are flying or doing well.
How about when they stumble, don't get it, do not have the experience of the wisdom?
How about when and if they lie, 'do their thing', hide?
Do you walk away and simply say they are not teachable or something similar and lay blame on the student?

I invite you to dig down within yourself and step UP to the plate of the role you could play in someone's career. Empowering someone to build strength in their field that you have wisdom or expertise in, takes time.

Overnight success is rarely what truly has happened behind the scene. It might be what you see in the numbers, but not in what that player has invested in their own transformation and growth.

Please, protect those mentoring relationships.
Possibly interview some people you respect who are good or great mentors and ask them what some of the core values are of a mentor. I by the way don't have a magic list of core values.

Just some early morning thoughts as I am sipping my delicious ‪#‎Herbalife‬tea.

Let's continue to bring extreme value to the marketplace, today.
