It’s that time of year, when thoughts turn to reflecting on the year that has past and turning your aspirations towards the bright and shiny new year ahead of you.  Did you make big plans for your direct sales business?  I’ve spoken to many Superstars who have plans to expand their teams, break personal sales records, and to finally reach that next level of promotion.

These are all fantastic goals!  Especially if you make them measurable, with a specific number and date associated with them.  But there is one thing that you cannot change no matter what year it is, the amount of time you have to complete these goals.  Each year starts with the same 365 days, 7 days a week, 24 hours in a day, year after year that never changes no matter how big or small your goal may be, you get the same amount of time as everyone else to work on achieving your resolution goals.

So how can you increase your chances of making your goals come true?  Don’t go it alone….hire a Virtual Assistant!

How can a VA help you reach your goals?

A Virtual Assistant can…

  1. give you more time to focus on IPAs!  Give your “busy” work to a VA.   You’ve heard your upline and respected direct sales coaches say this time and again, you do not need to put the labels on your catalogs, you do not need to personally address hostess party invites, you do not need to enter your customers into your database – what you do need to do is have catalogs and hostess packs prepared to hand out when you book a party, you do need to get invites out to guests on time and call them to confirm they are coming, you do need to have your customers in your database so that you can track conversations, prospect interest, and sales.
  2. increase your customer and prospect follow up.  By no longer wondering who needs a call when, a VA can create the systems to set up reminders for appropriate follow ups.  Having your contacts in a system with reminders going to your email and/or to your VA you can schedule your follow up calls efficiently
  3. stop the overwhelm!  A VA is your partner in growth and success, if you are feeling overwhelmed with the process of running your business a VA can be your sounding board to develop a system to organize where you are finding the bottle neck.  Overwhelmed with entering your customers into your database, give it to your VA, overwhelmed with creating a sales flyer, give it to your VA, need to write a welcome letter for your team…your VA can help!

Don’t go it alone!  You do not have to be an expert in all aspects of a business, that is why you hire help.  Look at the upper levels in your direct sales business I’m certain you will find they all have assistants!

No matter what your goal is for 2011, having a professional and trusted Virtual Assistant who understands your industry, can give you the advantage you need to have more time to focus on making all your goals a reality!
