CORPORATE DIRECTORS 5 ADVANCEMENTS NEW
Erin & Aaron Clark MISSOURI Steady Steps to Success
A jewel of perspective from Erin Clark in November of 2018: “Sometimes when we’re down in the trenches building our business, it doesn’t feel like we’re moving forward, but we are! It may not show up in our checks right now, but it will pay off! We may not get recognized right away, but that doesn’t matter because we will get recognized and celebrate everything we’ve accomplished.” Today Erin sums up her success in one sentence: “It’s what you do today that makes the difference.” Erin enrolled as a business builder in June of 2017, and only three years later she enters June of 2020 as a Corporate Director 5. But she is clear that “only three years” was—in real time—a dutiful, day-by-day process. Commitment to the daily practice of the Seven Critical Business-Building Activities is her freely shared “secret” to success. “I’ve always known that if we put in the work the success would come,” she says. “That is a principle we teach our team. The glamorous stories and amazing, inspiring highlights are wonderful. But the hard work takes place when no one is applauding.” As Erin explains it, “It’s the things you do on a daily basis—the mundane, seemingly insignificant things that never change—that create success. It’s making approaches, getting potential Preferred Members in front of the Melaleuca Overview, and doing follow-ups.” Her friend Corporate Director 2 Heidi Bartolotta says, “We are a fast-moving team and people want to know how we do it. But we’re not doing anything different, just a lot more of it!” In Erin’s words, “There is nothing fancy going on here. We are all works in progress, developing our skill sets. Melaleuca is the trickle of water that forms the big river. It’s not about overnight success. The longer you’re with Melaleuca, the more you fall in love with it and the more you can help others fall in love with it. “People are open to Melaleuca,” Erin adds, “and our enrollment percentage has doubled! They are discovering that we are many wonderful things in one—cleaner, greener, safer, with online shopping, great products, and home delivery. We have an entire product line that supports good health!” Erin recently suggested that their team check in on all their current Preferred Members and wish them a happy Mother’s Day. “I also said to contact anyone they had ever talked to about Melaleuca and everyone they had never talked to about Melaleuca because everyone is feeling lonely, detached, and scared, and they need to be cared for. We are relationship centered. That is our mission! We have a big job! Our neighbors need us and we will not let them down.”
