Leadership in Action - US English - 201907

ONE PRODUCT THAT SHOULD BE IN EVERY NEW CUSTOMER'S FIRST ORDER: Jeff believes that the Home Conversion Pack is the right way to get started. “It converts your home and that’s why it’s important,” Jeff says.

ONE THING THAT WILL HELP YOU DEVELOP YOUR OWN LEADERSHIP QUALITIES:

ONE HABIT YOU NEED TO BREAK (IF YOU DO IT): “The one habit you need to break is trying to sell Melaleuca,” Jeff says. “It’s the biggest turnoff in terms of getting someone to connect to your business. No one wants to be sold.” Jeff explains that rather than “selling” Melaleuca, it’s absolutely critical to build relationships. “Get to know others,” he advises. “Ask questions. Be aware of what they’re talking about. Ask them about their life and their family. People love to talk. It takes that interaction to build a relationship—to get to know someone, to like them, and for them to like you.”

Jeff is a natural-born leader with a style all his own, but leadership qualities don’t come naturally to everyone who chooses to build a business. Luckily, leadership skills can be learned and developed—a necessary process for any Marketing Executive. “Start by gaining knowledge about leadership,” Jeff says. “Read books, listen to audio books, or go to seminars. That’s the first step you have to take in developing your own leadership—learn about the skills and techniques of leadership in general.”
