Day 8 ----Monday Week 2

Hi Everyone!!!

Today's been a non-stop kind of day, full of many short visits along the way that began with our Miracle Team Coaching Call. It was positively lovely to hear Susan Huffstutler coaching us along until Jacki made it back on the line. Go, Susan, Go! Thank you!

Big Z had a big day out at our community college for his first official Hogwart's School. He's now on his bed reading Book 7, after active play with the neighbors.

It was wonderful to help a customer on Live Chat, and to have many short visits throughout the day, along with a few longer visits with folks when dialing Miracle Team leads. I made 35 follow-up calls to the leads and it was wonderful to make connects and have interviews.

I also made follow-up calls to local Miracle Team contacts.

Sent many e-cards to both sets of folks.

Made calls to new contacts.

The best call of the day:

To "D" who works at the local Chevrolet dealer as promised last night.

I called and got the operator. I asked for his extension and was asked for his name. I gave it and she hesitated, but then said his initial. I said, "Yes!"

So we got on the line. I told him there were a few reasons for my contact today.

First, I commended him upon his sale's letter to me back in May. I kept it because it impressed me (and I knew one day I would give him a call about Together We Can Change The World --- ran across his info this weekend while looking for something else, so I kept it out). I let him know that I never went to the dealership to purchase a car, but that I brought in my old truck for service, and, that it was years ago! He impressed me, by going through the records and finding me out of all those people who've been in. He kindly and appreciatively said thank you.

Secondly, I told him why I saved his letter because I knew I would talk to him about our company at some point. I said, "The Time is Now. I am with a local company called Together We Can Change The World and we're in a Miracle Team Boot Camp right now and we're getting the word out about our funding division of the company." I added that he was the kind of person I was looking to partner with. I also said we are having a fund-raising program to begin a solar oven factory in Uganda, telling some about it, and added, "I realize you are at work right now, so would you mind if I sent you an email that gave you the information, and we set up another time that I can answer any questions you have?"

He said, "Sure. I want you to contact me."

He gave me his home email and his cell number. We set up a time to visit tomorrow when he gets off work so that I may address his questions and hear his ideas about our company. Mind you, he's working 0800 to 2000--- that's from 8AM to 8PM. That's a LONG day. He doesn't even get to go away for lunch. I'm looking forward to visiting with him tomorrow!

I had an especially good follow-up call this evening after family chat with a high school friend who first saw TWCCTW in February. It was a marathon call, and I took her to the World Changer Presentation and the Solar Oven Factory website. As she's worked all day, she is going to spend some more time on it on her own, and then get back to me with questions. It was good to visit with her. She's always had wonderful energy. Her twins are now in college, and her youngest almost 13. She loved the solar oven project ;-).
