What to do with 2 days left in the year

  • Laurie’s Lessons – what to do with 2 days left in the year •
  • • Review your progress: Take some time to reflect on the past year. What were your successes? What could you have done better? This will help you set goals for the new year.
  • Tie up loose ends: Make sure all your invoices are sent and paid, and that your records are up-to-date. This will make tax time easier.
  • Plan for the new year: Start thinking about your goals for the new year. What do you want to achieve? How will you get there?
  • Thank your customers and employees: Let them know how much you appreciate their support. A simple thank-you note or email can go a long way.
  • Take some time off: It’s important to recharge your batteries so you can come back strong in the new year.

Here are some specific tasks you can do in the last two days of the year:

  • Review your financials: Look at your income statement and balance sheet to see how your business performed this year.
  • Clean up your office: A clean and organized workspace will help you start the new year off on the right foot.
  • Back up your data: Make sure all your important files are backed up in case of a computer crash or other disaster.
  • Set your out-of-office message: Let people know you’re taking some time off and when you’ll be back.
  • Relax and enjoy the holidays: Spend time with family and friends, and take some time for yourself.

I hope these tips help you finish the year strong and start the new year off on the right foot!

10 Tips On Why You Should Not Post Negativity Or Complain

Laurie’s Lessons

Negativity breeds negativity: Complaining or posting negatively can create a toxic environment and discourage others.

Think about if you just signed up a super excited customer or associate – and then they join the group and first thing they see is something major negative – what do you think that makes them think about their recent decision?

Undermines team morale: A positive and supportive atmosphere is crucial for success. Negative posts can dampen enthusiasm and motivation.

Damages your personal brand: Your online presence reflects on you. Consistent negativity can make you appear unprofessional and unapproachable.

Destroys trust: Complaining about the company or products can erode trust among your team members and potential customers.

Focus on solutions, not problems: Instead of complaining, focus on finding solutions and sharing positive experiences.

Respect the group’s purpose: The group is meant to uplift and support each other. Negative posts disrupt this positive environment.

Seek private support: If you’re facing challenges, reach out to your upline or mentor privately for guidance and support. ANY negative or complaining (as there WILL be times and situations you have that in ANY company) — needs to ONLY go upline – not downline and definitely not crossline. 

Lead by example: Be a positive influence and encourage others to share their successes and celebrate their wins.

Remember the bigger picture: Your success is tied to the success of your team. Focus on building relationships and fostering a supportive community.

Practice gratitude: Shift your focus to the positive aspects of your business and express gratitude for the opportunities you have.

The Empowering “Out”- The Secret Weapon of Prospecting Champions

Laurie’s Lessons – Have you ever felt like your outreach messages are hitting a brick wall? You pour your heart into crafting the perfect pitch, only to be met with silence or a polite “not interested.” Here’s the truth: the key to successful prospecting isn’t about forcing the close, it’s about unlocking the power of the “out.”

Imagine this: You’re scaling a mountain. You wouldn’t attempt the summit without proper gear and a clear path, would you? Prospecting is similar. The “out” is your safety rope, your map, and your compass. It allows you to navigate the terrain of potential customers with confidence and respect.

So, why is the “out” so powerful?

  • It Shifts the Focus: Forget desperate pleas for a sale. The “out” lets you focus on genuine connection. You’re not chasing a “yes” at all costs, but rather exploring a potential fit. It creates a more relaxed and collaborative atmosphere.
  • It Empowers You: The “out” gives you control. You’re not waiting for someone else’s approval. You’re proactively seeking those genuinely interested in what you offer. This confidence translates into your communication, making you sound more authentic and persuasive.
  • It Eliminates Resistance: The “out” disarms objections before they even arise. It acknowledges that your offering wouldn’t be a perfect fit for everyone. This proactive approach disrupts the typical sales dynamic and fosters a more open conversation.
  • It Qualifies Leads Faster: The “out” acts as a filter. Those who aren’t interested will readily opt out, saving you valuable time and energy. It allows you to focus your efforts on those truly intrigued by what you have to share.

How to Master the Art of the “Out”:

  • Embrace Transparency: Be upfront about your intentions. Don’t mislead with aggressive pitches. Instead, say something like, “Hey, I’m exploring a new product and wanted to see if you might be interested in learning more.”
  • Offer Value First: Focus on providing a benefit, even if it’s just a conversation. For example, “I’m curious about your experience in [their field]. Perhaps you could offer some insights, while I share a new approach I’m exploring.”
  • Keep it Simple: Avoid overwhelming the recipient with a barrage of information. A concise message with a clear “out” is more likely to spark genuine interest.
  • Respect the Response: If someone says no, thank them for their time and move on gracefully. Respecting their decision fosters goodwill and opens the door for future opportunities.

The “out” isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a sign of strength. It demonstrates confidence, respect, and a focus on building genuine connections. By embracing the “out,” you’ll transform your prospecting from a pushy sales tactic into a powerful tool for building relationships and attracting ideal customers. Remember, the journey to the top is easier when you’re well-equipped and open to collaboration. So, grab your metaphorical “out” and start your ascent with confidence!

Are you consistenly inconsistent?

➡️➡️ Are you consistently inconsistent?

🔵 Do you go to.a live event, then some training, then read a book, even teach what you learn, maybe even speak on stage about it! You have LOTS of content, right?

🔵 What are you doing to get people to buy your program? Or join your email list? Are you regularly blogging, writing to your social medial wall, sending notes to your list…..

🔵 Your calendar shows you are booked and busy. You have lots of podcasts and ebooks downloaded but hadn’t read or listened to yet, as you hadn’t had time.

🔵 Are you getting to the actual planning, execution, and actions to take you to the next level? You have to actually start taking action if you want to see results!

🟩🟩🟩🟩 Consistently 🟩🟩🟩🟩

🔵 Consistently produce content. Blog, Podcast, Facebook, YouTube. It needs to be timely, it needs to be relevant, and it needs to be consistent.

🔵 Consistently share that content with your email list. You don’t have to write a book and it doesn’t have to be extravagant! Take the topic from your content, make a creative subject line, then add a few lines from the content, and then link to it on your website. This brings more traction to your website as well.

🔵 Consistently add people to your email list so it grows. People that you meet, that you network with, that you speak to at an event. Add them to your list. Use your social to grow your email list. Talking to people at the other places? Tell them about your free ebook. Consistently.

🔵 You must have a consistent outreaching plan. Don’t just grow your followers, and friends talk to them! Message 5 people per day on Facebook and LinkedIn to start conversations, REAL conversations, and then come back to me in a few months and tell me all about your new success.

🔵 Consistent measuring. Do you check to see how many new people you got on your list in a month? Do you have a system to see how many opened it? Or how many clicked the links? Do you check to see how many you converted to paying clients?

We can go to training. We can follow top leaders. We can buy the right software and tools. But if we don’t take action, we will not see results.
If we are not consistent – we will not see results. We need to plan and implement.
