What did you get for the $29.? • Think about this: When you purchased that $29.00 membership kit, you became the President of your own company. you hired on a development team of research scientists and production experts that are producing those 350 plus products, many either patented or have patents pending. You hired an experienced management team, and over 3,000 employees in Idaho Falls, ID and Knoxville, TN. You also simultaneously opened for business in every state in the USA, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Scotland, the Netherlands, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, the Bahamas, Guam, Malaysia and China with complete compliance of all applicable international laws and regulations thanks to your legal department. You now have the opportunity, even the expectation of earning four, five and even six-figure annual income with the great tax advantages of having a business from home. Where else in the world would you find an opportunity like this? You don't have to spend thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars for it, but we recommend that you treat it as though you did. As President of your own business, you need to take ownership of it.

Everyone needs a “Plan B” in this economy!
Do Have Posture Give a Compliment Make it Personal Use a Script but don’t sound scripted Don’t Give the presentation Try to explain specifics Beat around the bush Seem needy or desperate Have doubt, if they all knew what you and I know, they would be asking you to join. The Do’s and Don'ts of Approaches Stay away from Product information, let the presentation do that. ‘The one’s you least expect will surprise you!’
Target Professionals, Friends, Family & Relatives: • Know their concerns and needs (Sick & Tired of being sick and tired). Most are in a rut; to work and back. Many are now looking for a ‘Plan B’ in today’s economy. Imagine if you worked your Melaleuca business like you do a 50-60 hour a week job or a conventional business. • Pick up business cards. • *Ask friends for successful people’s names and numbers: I need your help. I’m looking for...Who do you know? • Trade shows and job fairs, home shows--not as an exhibitor, but exchange and collect cards. • Prospect Leaders • Meet people from Networking Marketing Companies and stay in touch. • Reverse recruit on direct sales ads, wrong numbers and tela-marketing calls.
Prospecting Questions • One of the simplest things to do with relatives and close friends is use this: ___________ I need you help. Bill and I are just getting started in a new business and I need some practice before I really get started. Could we come over tomorrow evening or Tuesday and practice my presentation on you? Great, I always value your opinion and I know you will give me an honest evaluation. • Or just pop in on your friends and relatives and show them your business. • If they ask, What is it? “It’s Melaleuca. It’s kinda like a catalog company. It’s a business you can start for less than $30. There is no selling, no stocking or inventory, no picking up or delivering, and no risk whatsoever! People all over the country are making $2,000 to $10,000 a month and more with them. Just take a look and if you want to do it fine, if not, that will be ok too. ________, I guarantee I won’t waste your time.”
Prospecting Questions • Listen to them! Find a why, then repeat that to them and then use this qualifying question: If I could honestly and I mean honestly show you… • - how to pay all of your monthly bills without using your primary income….. • something that made complete sense and you didn’t have to sell anything, and it wasn’t Amway or one of those MLM deals….. • - how to stay home with your children……….. • - how to have more time with your family…… • - how to have more energy and feel better….. • how to develop a “Plan B” in today’s economy.... • how to ‘Bridge The Gap’ between closings, sales, etc. • …would you give me 30 minutes of your time to show you how to do that? • Great! Which would be better for you, _____ or _____? or
Prospecting Questions- In-Home • ____________ I just have a minute but I wanted to ask you a favor. ___________I need your help. Bill and I just started a new business that we are really excited about and we need some people to practice on. You may or may not be interested yourself but we are having a few people over Tuesday and Thursday evenings and we wanted to invite you and Ralph over to take a look at it. You might be able to help me with some other people and I would like to get your opinion because I value it so much. Could you come Tuesday or Thursday? Or ___________, would you be interested in developing another stream or source of income? Great, come on over tomorrow evening at 7:00 and we’ll talk about it.
Realtor or Mortgage Professionals Approach •“Hi ___, My name is ________. Is __________You don't know me, but I am looking at your business card.” •“___, I’m looking to team up with a few Real Estate Professionals who would be open to looking at an additional stream of income that would help “Bridge The Gap” between Closings. I like to set a time to run it by you, would Tues. or Wed. be better for you? (If they say tell me about it), just say, “that’s why I want to get together, which would work better for you, Tues or Wed.? If you get more resistance, use: “____, you and I both know that property values in some parts of the country are down 50% and people can have a credit score of 700 and still can’t get a loan.” What I want to show is the perfect answer for you. Let’s get together, would lunch Tues. or Wed. work? I guarantee I won’t waste your time.”
More On Working Referrals •“Hi ___ my name is _____, you don’t know me but we have a mutual friend (______ _______). Do I catch you at a good time? I just need a minute.” •”_______told me you are a terrific leader with a sharp business mind and someone who’s really motivated and she thought you’d be a perfect fit for the business I am with, Melaleuca–have you ever heard of our company?” •“If it is alright with you, I’d like to bounce the high points off you and see what you think, it takes about 30 to 45 minutes and is done by appointment only. I guarantee I won’t waste your time. What is better for you this week Tues. or Thurs.?”
PARTY PLAN AND DIRECT SALES LADIES Make it a point to call and network with them. Establish your drip list Know what to say: Hi, is _____. Did I catch you at a good time? Are you still with _____? How long have you been with ________? Are you pursuing this full time or part time? Are you open to taking a look at something that would compliment what you are already doing and give you another stream of income? Let's have lunch tomorrow or would Wednesday be better for you?
Always Begin With A Compliment "I was just speaking with my business partners and they asked me who I know that is outgoing and really motivated that would make a terrific leader with our company...so I immediately thought of you and that you would be a perfect fit for the business I am with –have you ever heard of Melaleuca, The Wellness Company?” “I can’t do it justice over the phone and it would not be fair to you, however, I can give you my personal guarantee -this will be worth your time.” “This may or may not be for you –you be the judge, but at the very least maybe you can point me in the right direction of someone who would make a perfect fit for my business –fair enough?”
Business Approaches • •"Would you be open-minded to creating an alternate source of income that would not interfere with your primary job?“ • •“If I could show you a business concept that you could turn ordinary household expense, into a monthly income stream, would you give me an hour of your time?” • •“I’d love to talk to you about a great business idea…as a “Plan B” in today’s economy to generate an additional income stream…are you open-minded to take a look?
There are 2 basic reasons that someone doesn’t start with you. • Fear (Of failing) is the main reason. • Ego (Their ego is bigger than their bank account) • Here are main objections you may get: • Afraid of what their friends will think. • I’m not a sales person. • I don’t have time. • I don’t have the money. • I need to talk to my spouse. • I don’t think I can do 35 points.
Intention vs. Action There is a difference between intention and action. Those who only intend to commit may find excuses at every turn. Those who truly commit face their challenges squarely and say to themselves, “Yes, that would be a very good reason to delay, but I made a commitment and so I will do what I have committed to do.”
Senior, Executive & Corporate Directors Senior, Executive and Corporate Directors have all the obstacles, hassles and disappointing frustrations that everyone else has, they just continue to persist, get the job done and in many cases make what they do look easy.
Success The first step to Success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you now find yourself. It’s not your present circumstances that count, but the circumstances you make up your mind to achieve. The only limit on your accomplishments and income is You!
Four Basic Emotions That Cause People To Act • Each, or a combination of several, can trigger the most incredible activity. The day that you allow these emotions to fuel your desire is the day you'll turn your business and life around. • Disgust! • Call it what you will,the "I've had it" day, the "never again" day, the "enough's enough” day. Whatever you call it, it's powerful! There is nothing as life-changing as gut-wrenching disgust!
Four Basic Emotions That Cause People To Act • Decision! • Most of us need to be pushed to the wall to make decisions. And once we reach this point, we have to deal with the conflicting emotions that come with making them. We have reached a fork in the road. • Whatever you do, don't camp at the fork in the road. Decide. It's far better to make a wrong decision than to not make one at all.
Four Basic Emotions That Cause People To Act • Desire • How does one gain desire? I don't think I can answer this directly because there are many ways. But I do know two things about desire: a. It comes from the inside not the outside.b. It can be triggered by outside forces. • Almost anything can trigger desire. It's a matter of timing as much as preparation. It might be a speech, a training, a CD. It might be a memorable sermon.
4. RESOLVE Resolve says, "I will." These two words are among the most potent in the English language. I WILL. In other words, when someone resolves to "do or die," nothing can stop him or her. Failure is not an option! Ask yourself, "How long am I going to work to make my dreams come true?" I suggest you answer, "As long as it takes.” That the key to goal setting anyway. Being willing to do whatever it takes for however long to get whatever it is you want. That has always been my answer. Four Basic Emotions That Cause People To Act
Act or Lose The things you do today that you don’t have to do will determine what you will have and what you will be when you are no longer able to do anything about it! • Jim McCune

Whatare the PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS on the labels of all these products, and many more?
Chances of Getting Cancer… In 1950 – 1 in 500 Today – 1 in 2 for men; 1 in 3 for women Reasons: • Hundreds of new chemicals, many in cleaning & laundry products • Modern construction methods keep heat & cold out, but also keep chemicals inside so we breath them constantly • Eating nutritionally deficient diets We have to be careful what we breath, what we let touch our skin, what we put in our mouths! Lung Cancer is the No. 1 ranked Cancer killer, but over half of the lung cancer victims have never smoked! Why is that happening? Could exposure to chemicals be one of the reasons? WE THINK IT IS!
Risk Connection Scientist and doctors are discovering a connection between our increased use of household chemicals and the increased incidence of chronic illness in children…like cancer, asthma, ADD, birth defects, allergies, and a host of other problems. • Asthma rates are up 600% in the US since 1980 • Cancer is a major public health problem in the USA. In 2010, 1 in 4 deaths in the USA was due to cancer. (American Cancer Society statistic) Since you know you are at risk, why not rid your life of those dangerous products?
