Consistency

Here are There Consistent Habits that the most Successful Paparazzi Consultants have in Common. By incorporating these activities into your daily routine, it's only a matter of time before you find the power of simplicity:

1. Be a Product of the Product - Wear your favorite "Paparazzi" pieces to work, school, running errands, and more. Don't forget to share the Best part - Everything is just $5!
2. Share your Story often - Tell Everyone about how "Paparazzi" has impacted your life. We're not talking 45% Commission or team bonuses, either. Share your TRUE Story and share it often.
3. Be Generous with Compliments - Compliments break the ice and open the door for conversation by helping people feel comfortable and confident in your presence.
Most Importantly, keep it FUN! "Paparazzi" started with a Party and it continues to bring confidence to millions of people through countless parties everyday.

Consistency is your businesses best friend. Once you finish with your launch party Online, you will want to keep that group open. You can change the name if you like. This will become your business page/group. I add all my hostesses to this group and any customers I become friends with. When you do online parties, at the end, make sure you add as a friend those who click "going" or "Interested." That's how I build my Network in 4 years. I went from 50 friends or less, to 4,000+ friends in which 80% are my customers.

One of the most important "keys" to success in this business is the proper and right amount of follow up. Here's what I do:

{Day 1}Customer makes a purchase:

1. I email/Message them a thank you and some Care Jewelry tips.
2. Post a thank you in the party with a graphic and tag the customer in post. I mention that they should be on the lookout for a FB message from me.
3. Facebook message the customer, thanking them for the order and for supporting the hostess. Make sure they fill out the google form, so that you see if they want to be added to your VIP group.

{3 days after receiving their order}
4. Email/Facebook message the customer, let them know you saw they received their order. Tell them feedback is important to you and ask how they are liking it. Always end this email with a question!
5. If they reply with an issue (look in files for the response you can give). If they love it, offer the opportunity for a party. Again always end with a question!)

{Two months after they've ordered}
6. Email them with some tips on how to organized their jewelry. Include your link for reorder and offer the party idea again as a way to earn their product for free.

In my first few days with Paparazzi I went thru my friends list and sent messages. Who do you know that could benefit from this business? A friend that loves jewelry? Influential people with lots of friends? Friends who have lived all over? An Aunt in another state? A friend in another country? Think of your friends from church, play group, bingo night, whatever!

I sent messages asking if they had ever heard of Paparazzi and shared my genuine excitement. Whether it be that you would love for them to host a party or that you want to share the opportunity, keep your message concise and I'll say it again... end with a question.

The more people you talk to, interact with, share with, the better your chances of gaining customers, hostesses, team members and referrals. AND get used to hearing no. If you are reaching out to people you are going to get some no's. YES is the destination and NO is the way you get there. You'll get more no's than yes's along the way. That's okay!! It just means that you are that much closer to a YES!!

Start that list and get to messaging! Who do you know that you are excited to share with

Building an Empire:
Turning Habits into Consistent Success

According to science, it can take up to 66 days or 66 tries to form a new habit. Habits can be anything from making healthy choices to daily routines. Some habits form naturally, while others take time to establish a consistent practice. Humans are habitual creatures which prompts us to return to our favorite diner, shopping mall, or car mechanic because we know what to expect. We return to these businesses time and time again because they have consistently provided us with satisfying results.

As a Consultant, it is important to be consistent with not only your team members, but your customers as well. By consistently creating a schedule and sticking to it, we create positive habits that positively impact our business. Being consistent is not only a personal ambition, but also an underrated business tool that will establish you as a leader. Below are a few ways to help you be consistent when it comes to building your team and your clientele.

Being Consistent with Your Team:

Honoring Commitments: If you have committed to help a team member with an upcoming show or home party, then it is important to honor those commitments by showing up and doing your part. As a leader, there is no greater tool than a team member knowing they can count on you and find support in their upline.

Follow Up: When developing leaders within your team, it is crucial that you hold up your end of the agreements you make. If you promise to call and follow up on a goal that was set, make sure you actually call and follow up. If you don’t uphold your end of the bargain, you can’t expect your team members to uphold theirs.

Keep Appointments and Stick to Schedules: If you have made if part of your schedule to have a regular team meeting or training call, then be consistent and maintain that tradition! Consistently keeping in contact with your team builds a stronger team!

Always Have a Backup: We all know emergencies happen, but that doesn’t have to stop us from preparing for those times that life decides to throw us a curveball. Always have a second-in-command who is trained and knowledgeable in your business that can step in and assist when needed. You can also pre-record training sessions that you can share if you’re unable to make the regularly scheduled appointment

Being Consistent with Your Customers:

Make Every Response, a Rapid Response: Make it a habit to respond quickly and promptly to customer needs and questions. Taking the time to make a customer feel special creates a loyal customer.

Have Regular Hours of Operation: Maintaining consistent hours of operation, establishes a professional and reliable routine that makes our customers feel satisfied.

Create an Organized Online Presence: We often forget what a valuable and accessible tool social media has become! In both our personal and business lives, it is important to keep a structured schedule; the same is true for social media. Create a schedule pertaining to online parties, posts, or reminders and stick to them! Perhaps every Monday post new inventory with your friends or every Friday, throw an online party. Keep consistent and your customers will consistently come back.

Being consistent with your own business practices can teach you a lot about your personal Paparazzi business. When you incorporate a new technique, do it consistently for a minimum of three weeks to a month in order to get an accurate gauge on its efficacy. If you decide to make phone calls every week, you can’t see the effects until you’ve repeated the behavior consistently!

Big businesses around the world have built their empires simply by being consistent. Their customers know what to expect and those satisfying results keep them coming back for more. By creating habits and transforming those habits into consistencies, we not only build our team and clientele, but we also build our empires!
