Day 15 ----Week 3 Begins

My day began at 0600 with the Boot up of my computer and has been non-stop since then except for a lunch time out ;-).

My energy has been really good today. As I said on the Miracle Team Call this morning, my weekend provided nourishment, activity, rest and downtime that gave me a feeling of renewal.
I carried this through my day ~~~

Big Z got off to Camp just before I hopped on Customer Service for 2 1/2 hours. It was wonderful to hear John Crisp on the Family Chat tonight after being able to help him on my shift today --- Way to Go, John. Welcome back to My Power Mall ;-).

Now that Jacki is drinking green smoothies, why lemonades will be next ;-). LOL
Jacki, I told you this already, but I am so very, very proud of you for making this leap and taking action. How incredible to hear you haven't had your meds for three days! WOWee!

I didn't get my leads today in the conventional sense --- instead, my last 8 hours was devoted to the phone making follow-up calls, with follow-up emails occurring in the midst of it. My follow-ups leads ran the gamut, from old Peak Impact, to the leads for the testing system we used a few months ago (yes! still following up AND reaching people after 3-4th VM), the Fab 50 and the Miracle Team leads, and yes! my local contact leads. It adds up after awhile of being consistent ;-).

All told, I have 5 new contacts from a stack of local leads I have.

The followed up on 35 people and was happy for connects, whether it be new interviews or following up after interviews or connecting for the first time.

My stack of leads to follow-up with after interviews happens to have a lot of them on the east coast. My challenge--- many of my mornings are devoted to calls or Customer Service, so I find that by the day's end, I'm only able to get to a few a day before it's too late to call.

The good news is that I have so many folks in my local area and times zones, that I'm having plenty to keep me busy into the evening and am still not even getting all of them followed up with.

Isn't it GREAT to have TOO MANY people to SHARE our Business with????

YES!

It IS!

While on the Miracle Team call this morning, I was looking for my contact for my credit union. I haven't found her yet, and know her contact info is nearby ----however, I found a stack of sales letters I'd set aside for buying cars from local dealers, ad paks with local business advertising, and a stack of merchants and people I know who have a business. I pulled them all out, sorted through the ad pak and picked out who I wanted to approach, and kept the letters handy. I also included a few people I've spoken or worked with in the past to contact them, including old leads who either said yes or not to a former business of mine.

Did I have a chance to look at them again today?

Nope. But when I did have them in my hand, I was visualizing my approach to businesses and "dressing up" for the meeting. I am determined to speak to merchants in my community, even if I've heard in the past that our local community of businesses are tough to "break into" when it comes to networking --- Each time I visualize myself doing it, I'm creating the confidence I'll need to waltz through those doors.

I'm re-adding to my list the call to the market to confirm what I read in their forms you must fill out to get a fundraiser set up in their entryway --- they said none allowed in summer months --- and certain other times of the year.

Today I revisited a networking site for women that I joined in April. I've been working so diligently that I haven't really had the time to get in there. But as I'm also determined to get myself onto Facebook, etc . . . I knew that I needed to take advantage of what was already begun.

So, I upgraded my membership so that I could take advantage of a 6 week long tele-seminar course that is going to be provided (we can always learn more and more and more) and also to gain additional training, mentoring, and connection with other women.

While there, I joined a forum connected to a woman who's driven Big Rigs for years --- and posted to it (I took my Class A CDL course almost 2 years ago). And, I also uploaded one of the videos we bought from Lost Marble in the UK and wrote up a blurb about TWCCTW based, taking tidbits from our Miracle Team Training and including a link to the T-Day site and the TWCCTW song.

Tomorrow begins anew with Customer Service at 7 am, and two schedule follow-up calls directly after; and my dinner ---veggie soup --- sits waiting for me to fill my belly, a bit late tonight.

It's ALL good!

Ya'll have a blessed night's rest and we'll see you tomorrow.

Awesome efforts my friend! I know you are soon going to start connecting with the people who catch the vision and decide to say YES to all MPM, and you, have to offer them!
