Head Office Business Blitzes
Why Take Part?
Let's face it, few of us enjoy picking up the phone and having those booking and sponsoring conversations, by doing it as part of a 'blitz' you are getting revved up first and doing it alongside other Stylists, it's all ABOUT TAKING ACTION MORE THAN THE RESULTS! but of course by taking action, you will get results. Plus, Head Office throw in some prizes along the way!
What Do I Do & How Does It Work?
Blitzes are usually held by Sam Walpole (left) and our Head Office team every week or so, you can check the Training Calendar on the Stylist Lounge or check further down this newsletter for what training/blitzes are on this week.
At the start time, dial in and listen to Sam and one of our leaders giving their top tips and words to say when making your calls that day, Sam usually explains how it works at the start too, including what time to dial back in with your results and feedback. To WIN prizes you need to post your results in the Stella & Dot UK & Ireland Stylist Community Facebook page, underneath the Blitz post (which is usually right at the top of the newsfeed). It can be comforting to know that the other Stylists are also getting voicemails and some No's too. A blitz usually lasts for an hour. You don't need to dial in at the start and end if you can't, but to take part all you need to do is make your calls during that hour and post your results on the facebook post (conversations in person also count!).
What If I Am At Work In The Daytime?
A lot of you are! which is why we also run evening blitzes, the next one is Monday 25th January 7.30pm (tomorrow).

Welcome to Stella & Dot!
About Me:
I am a mum of three school age children, this is my second business in this industry, I joined S&D when we launched in the UK in 2012 when my previous jewellery company closed down, I have been in the biz for about 6 years. When I first started I had babies, toddlers and another job, and to be honest, I joined to get discount on my wishlist! however after my first party, I knew that this was what I wanted to do, so I made a plan with my sponsor and quit my job within 6 months and have never looked back. I still work part-time and do about 6 parties a month.
I live in Surrey, I'm married to the very patient Mr P and I survive on black coffee and gin.
I look forward to meeting you soon!
Michele
XOXO

Connect with your Sponsor
It's important to be honest with your sponsor about what you want from your business so that she can offer the right level of support.
During your Jumpstart period (your first 60 days) we recommend having a quick chat once a week with your sponsor.
Not on Facebook? You're missing out!
I use this Facebook page to do give-aways and share important information as it happens. it is also a useful forum for you to ask questions and share tips.
Even if you don't want to use Facebook for your personal life, you really need to use it for communication purposes within the team and wider Stella & Dot community.
Add me as a friend and I'll add you to the group: www.facebook.com/michele.porter1
Attend a Monthly Meeting (every month!)
Stylists who regularly attend a monthly meeting have much stronger businesses and are more likely to have longevity. Without connecting with other Stylists doing the same job, it's very hard to get motivated and inspired. Also, it's more fun together!
If there isn't one, then tell me!! I am working with Head Office to get the nation covered.
Making the Most of Jumpstart
Familiarise yourself with what you could be earning in this period and chat to your sponsor about it.
Read & Watch The Weekly BUZZ
It's a 5 minute video, once a week. Just watch it!
Stella & Dot University

Hoopla!
If you want be successful and earn more money from your business, you need to go to Hoopla.
