It's taken me years to realize that shy people miss out on a lot. If you are shy, trust me, you are not alone. In fact I don't think anyone is as shy as i've been known to be. Every since I was a little girl i've been this way but I notice that being too shy as a network marketer just doesn't work. I would always admire other people that seemed so self-confident and wish that I could be that way. The older i've gotten, I have just learned to kick the shy habit! I am just plain old tired of being shy. I realize that If I am to take my business to the next level that I should grow in every area.
Being Secure is a Part of the Business
Part of this business is being confident in your skin. So what if you get some no's. Let's concentrate on the possibility of people saying yes. If we never take chances in life, how will we ever find out what's ahead? Part of the network marketing business is meeting new faces and sharing the Avon opportunity and really great products.
Have You Thought About Why You Are so Shy?
For me, a troubled childhood and past hurts contributed to this. Maybe your reason is not so extensive but think about your why and work on ways of reversing this. Maybe you are are afraid of how people will react to you but trust me, most people will react the same way you would. So think about how you would feel with people approaching you and approach others the same way.
Here are Three Ways That I Approach Potential Clients
I really don't do too well at just randomly placing brochures in people's hands. I know that this works at times but I find that other approaches work better for me. I try meeting new people just about every where I go, then start a casual conversation.
Sales Pitch #1
Sales Pitch #2
Adorable Children are the Perfect Opportunity to Make a Sale
Children are the apple of my eye. I absolutely love and adore them. In fact my husband and I have six of our own and a new grandbaby. Have you ever been out and about and ran into little cuties? We all have! The next time this happens, compliment the parent. Start a short conversation, and ask the parent if it would be ok to give the child a few treats. Then share a brochure and samples with the parent.
Sales Pitch #3
Grocery Store Talk
The fresh fruit and vegetable part on the grocery store or any store is great for prospecting. I don't know about you but I get so excited when I find a great deal in this section or when I find fruit that really looks great. Try sharing your feelings with someone else in the store. Maybe you could say something like the grapes sure look good today or the mangoes are a good price today. As you strike up a conversation, the rest should be history.
Summary
I know that if you are much like me, you may enjoy keeping to yourself but remember that getting to know new people is just part of the process. Besides no one can build a business without new clients. I can't think of one reason why you shouldn't feel confident so get into the habit. You can be just as successful as anyone else. So remember to speak with new people daily about your business, keep sampes and brochures with you at ALL times, and when you have extra money make goody baggies for those adorable children.
Be creative - think about and even write down your own sales pitches.
I hope this helps you sell Avon. Have a Great Day!
