Corporate Fundraising: STEPTEMBER Make every step count...
In September 2018, our corporate team embarked on a 28-day challenge to support people living with Cerebral Palsy. The challenge was to take 10,000 steps a day for 28 days straight. During the month, we asked our family and friends to help sponsor us along the way. Steptember was a great way to help boost our fitness and do something great for people with cerebral palsy at the same time.
7 teams of 4 participated in the challenge pushed themselves each and every day to reach their 10,000 step goal. Some actions we took to achieve our target included walking to work and team walks during lunch. In the 28 days we raised a total of $3,084 and took 9,554,019 steps! The money we raised will help people living with cerebral palsy in Australia get the specialised equipment they need to do basic, everyday things we take for granted such as standing up or moving around.
7 If you want to achieve your goals with Melaleuca, you need to focus on and repeatedly do these seven activities day after day and week after week.

CRITICAL BUSINESS-BUILDING ACTIVITIES
1
Build Your Contact List
2
Set Appointments
I want you to notice something about the Seven Critical Activities, the first four in particular. You cannot do Critical Activity 3, Share Overviews, before you do Critical Activity 2 or Critical Activity 1. That’s not how it works. These activities are in this order because that’s the order you’ll need to do them in. Before you can hold a Strategy Session, you need to present Melaleuca: An Overview and enroll a customer. And before you can do that, you’ll need to invite someone you know to your Overview. There’s a reason the first Critical Activity is not Set Appointments. Before you invite someone to your Overview, you should already have a relationship. The first thing to do is add their name to your contact list and begin establishing a relationship. When the time is right, you can invite them to attend a Melaleuca Overview and make a decision about Melaleuca. We are a “warm market” company. The right way to build your business is with people who know you, like you, and trust you. So before you approach someone to set an appointment, take the time to build a genuine relationship with them. As you help them reach their goals, you’ll find that those personal relationships can be just as rewarding—if not more so—as your income from your Melaleuca business.
