You’ve got a direct selling business and you are trying to build your team, however, but it’s so hard to find people that stick around and care about the business like you do! As if by some strange voodoo, you get stuck with having to recruit team over and over again without ever appearing to grow your team at all. And as if that’s not bad enough, a key player suddenly decides to pull out, leaving a big hole in your business! Does this situation sound too familiar?

Most newcomers in the direct selling industry get stuck in that vicious recruitment loop just as much as veterans do. But you aren’t alone in this, let’s talk about what you can do to break that cycle.

In this week’s podcast episode, I chat with Lyndsey Baigent who aside from being a special friend is also a direct sales success coach and trainer. We talk about the best way to grow your team what you need to look for in recruits, and how you can make them stay with you for a longer period of time. We’ll also be talking about ultimately reminding yourself that this industry is all about having fun!
