A Must In Every Starter Kit

December 3, 2013 By admin Leave a Comment

For 27 years, I have consulted with network marketing and party plan companies to help build and improve their businesses.

Recently, I stumbled upon something that is the greatest breakthrough in marketing that our distribution channel has ever seen. I’ve made a special arrangement to introduce it to my clients and other direct selling companies like yours, and I know you are going to love it!

The Biggest Mistake Most Business Owners Make

Word-of-mouth marketing is 10x more effective than any other type of marketing.  And even with Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, only 7% of word-of-mouth happens online… yet that is where almost everyone is trying to drive word-of-mouth.   In 2013, 93% of word-of-mouth in the world is still happening OFFLINE.

If you and your sales force aren’t actively working to build your offline word-of-mouth buzz, you are leaving money on the table. When money’s on the table, that means you’re driving your business with one foot on the brake!

Prospecting for Pennies

Your success depends on the success of your independent representatives, and their success depends on recruiting, selling, and prospecting.

What if prospecting was easy and inexpensive? With this patented breakthrough invention, prospecting for pennies becomes a reality.

Improve Your Sales, Recruiting and Retention

As a direct selling expert, I know to grow your business faster, you need to improve your sales, recruiting, and retention. Wouldn’t it be great if there was something inexpensive that could do all three? There now is and it’s great!

Introducing CreditCovers

Almost everyone uses credit cards or debit cards. Whenever a card is used, the owner looks at it, and when it is handed to another person for payment, that person looks at it, too.  What if, when they looked, it was good for your business?

The Power of CreditCovers

CreditCovers can become your best marketing word-of-mouth tool. Your independent representatives can put them to work immediately to:

  • Increase recruiting through passively advertising your income opportunity
  • Increase customer sales by providing reps a new easy method to prospect for  new customers
  • Increase party sales by giving party plan reps a simple new way to get hostesses
  • Increase activity by reminding your network marketing or party plan reps to work their business
  • Increase retention by keeping your reps engaged in their business longer

Tell Me How

Here are some examples of what you can say on a custom-designed CreditCover:

  • Wear Jewelry, Make Money!
  • I work for myself. You can, too!
  • Do you need more income?
  • Beautiful Jewelry for Free? Ask me how!
  • Lose weight, gain money. Ask me how.
  • Love jewelry? You can make it your business
  • Do you need more income?

You Choose

You can design your company’s CreditCovers, or have our graphic artists at CreditCovers help you out. Whichever you choose, it will be a good decision.

A Must In Every Starter Kit

Your starter kit should contain the best sales, recruiting, and retention tools for new representatives.  CreditCovers are the best tool to do all three.

Don’t make CreditCovers an optional purchase!  Be sure to include them in all of your starter kits.  For current representatives, send CreditCovers with product orders during the next 30 days so everyone will benefit equally.

The Power of Three

People have more than one credit or debit card.  The average person has seven cards but uses three of them more than others.  That’s why we recommend that your reps each have three CreditCovers, each with a different message.

About Company Branded Pay Cards

Some direct selling companies issue debit cards to their reps and when commissions are earned, the funds are placed onto these cards.  However, when your reps spend money, most of the time they don’t use your pay card!

Instead, they use their primary credit or debit cards.  This is why a company pay card is not a substitute for CreditCovers. CreditCovers will be seen by your reps and their prospects hundreds of more times per rep than your pay cards!

About Jay Leisner

P15Jay Leisner, the President of Sylvina Consulting, is a top compensation plan and direct selling expert, a trusted adviser to new and established network marketing and party plan companies. For more than 30 years, Jay has enjoyed assessing and improving network marketing, party plan and referral marketing companies across the globe.

Direct Selling Startup GuideJay Leisner and Victoria Dohr authored the top-rated book for new and young network marketing, referral marketing, and party plan companies, "Start Here: The Guide to Building and Growing Your Direct Selling Company".

In 1986, Jay began his career in direct selling by working for a major direct selling software provider. First as a software developer and later as a project leader and a business analyst, Jay worked closely with new and established network marketing and party direct selling companies to provide them with software solutions to meet their unique requirements.

Jay contributed in many ways to the success of large implementation projects for many companies. Jay also worked with dozens of smaller companies to assist each of them in various capacities to provide them with the systems they needed to help their businesses to grow faster.

Along the way while working with them, he learned the secrets of successful direct selling companies and the challenges faced by them. In true entrepreneurial spirit, Jay’s decision in 1999 to start Sylvina Consulting as a direct selling consulting company was driven by what he saw was a need for answers, advice, and solutions.

In 2004, 2006, 2009, 2014, and 2018, Jay gave presentations on compensation plans, recognition, and field leadership development at conferences held by the US Direct Selling Association.

He traveled to South Africa in 2015, 2016, and 2017 to conduct workshops on compensation plan design and recognition programs for member companies of the South African Direct Selling Association.

In 2017, Jay spoke at the Canadian Direct Sellers Association Meeting on the importance of recognition.

More than just a compensation plan expert, Jay is exceptionally skilled at advising new and established companies on business strategies. Before offering advice or solutions, he asks important questions to understand each client’s specific concerns and goals.
