This is my grandparents life story…” Give them a moment to browse and think, then show them some other books and styles, and answer questions. Let them know we are doing a drawing for a FREE Storybook and hand them a contact card. While they are filling it out, say, “Oh, and by the way, this is a new company and we are looking for consultants, so if you are interested in a home based business, this is a great ground floor opportunity.” If they are interested, then give them a consultant packet and let them know about the upcoming call they can register for.

You don’t need to show them ALL the styles. Do not put business cards or brochures out on the tables – use a half apron Be prepared before you arrive – i.e. labeling material, creating packages Keep all answers about other competitors companies positive Rotate your position in the booth every 30 minutes so that all of the consultants have an opportunity to work the sweet-spots No chewing gum – bring mints instead No cell phone use on the booth – please take your calls away from the booth Bring water, lunch, snacks as it is really expensive to buy food at the expo

At the event, if all they’ve done is decided they want to make a book, that’s okay. You have one new client working on a book, and you can help make their project happen. With your follow-up call, if you don’t get the sale on call #1, don’t worry. Keep them moving toward their goal, and when it’s time to make the sale, you’ll get it. Be consistent, and make notes about your communication. Most importantly, remember them, their project needs, and then help them be successful. Kristi Mazutinec, Founding Director
