Double Your Income in a Year
Today is Sunday….
time to relax.
time to reconnect.
time to reflect.
time to plan!
I find myself very thoughtful & grateful on Sundays. I am grateful that I own my business. That I determine when I work and when I don’t. I am grateful that my income has exploded every year since I started in direct sales. And that I don’t have to worry if we wake up in the middle of the night because one of my kids has gotten sick.
Today I want to share with you how to make a plan to DOUBLE your Income & TIME-OFF in a year! Yes, I know you can do it! But you must zero in with laser-sharp FOCUS! I learned this lesson, very recently, as I had started doing some internet marketing consulting for Mercedes-Benz, alongside my stella & dot. I struggled with the new added responsibility and learning new procedures for that endeavor. I sadly watched my stella business falter and struggled with the fact that I needed to quit working for Mercedes. I quit on Thursday. YAY! Now, I sit here & reflect on the lessons learned. Namely: STAY FOCUSED! As I look over my last 3.5 years with my stella, I have realized over 300% growth in income!
I have learned that 3 core tasks remain the most important to moving my business forward. They are-prospecting, follow-up, & planning! I know that I need to spend the majority of my time on these 3 tasks to perform at my best. And my best is not everyone else’s best, rather it is the best that I can be to achieve MY DREAMS!
Plan to Double Your Income: Apply the Law of 3
1-write a list of everything you do (tasks) to move your business forward…try doing this a few different times in a week to cover all bases.
2-circle the TOP 3 most important tasks…assign, delegate, outsource the rest!
3-now, identify the 3 most important GOALS in each area of your life. Make a plan to work towards them daily.

Business Builder Tips
To do this business as a business builder you must be disciplined and make calls. That is just a fact of the sales world. The beauty of stella & dot is that once people know us, they are easy calls to make! But if you live in a new/underserved market you will face a few challenges. But don’t worry, I have launched my business in 4 very different markets across the US in my 3.5 yrs with stella. And I have been successful in every market-rural or metro. But my key to success was mindset & action. It would be very easy to quit at times, but I have a goal: to earn enough $$ to pay the mortgage & PAY OFF the student loan debt. Someday, sooner than later, we hope to scream: WE’RE DEBT FREE!!! Also, I have worked in other sales positions and I absolutely think stella & dot is the place to be. I am so happy with the stylist community, training and the line is simply irresistible!
How do you keep your head in the game?
1-have a goal, then make a plan!
2-schedule the time to do the work! I call it Smilin’ & Dialin’!!
3-don’t allow yourself a ‘back door’. Your business depends on your consistency & positive mind-set, but if you tell yourself, “Well, we’ll just see what happens….not much will happen!
4-discover what fills you up & make sure you do it! Eat well, exercise, yoga, a massage, whatever makes you feel peace.
And last but not least, remember: …..if you treat your business like a hobby, you’ll have $$ to play with. If you treat your business like a business you’ll earn SERIOUS $$!

Bring a Friend Gift
When i send out my redstamp (iPhone app) invite & reminder i am offering a little incentive to bring a friend. Not only will this up the attendance but you’ll note it says ‘with order’ so they have to order to receive this offer. Cost to you is $18 for the 2 BUT the commission from their orders should off set this (you know they are not JUST buying the bracelet) and you now have 2 customers/potential hostesses or stylists for $18!
Claire Malone & I came up with this one!!
Here is your Redstamp to share:
♥ I did this last night! And it worked!! 2 guests brought 2 friends. And the show is almost at $1000 in sales! My other WHITE HOT TIP is to bring and burn a stella candle and let the hostess keep it if the show goes over $1000. The candle sets the ambiance and smells so AMAZING. (share these 2 little incentives in your hostess coaching-say something like I am doing something really special for your guests, it’s xyz….)
