Training For Team Building – Create Meetings With Themes & Exciting Topics

One of the best ways to keep up the attendance at your direct sales consultants’ meetings is to have fun and exciting team training meetings. Creating team meetings with exciting topics and themes will keep your team guessing as to what is coming next. Good meetings will keep them coming back for more!

Chickens and Stars: A week or so before the team training, send a postcard or email and do a phone call, telling everyone to bring a can of Chicken And Stars soup. No other explanation is necessary. You are creating an aura of intrigue. “What is she up to now?!” Then at the meeting, have a segment on networking, phone calls or anything you want, and the “theme” is “Are you a STAR?” Define being a STAR: Do you talk to people everywhere you go? Do you make a commitment to ask three people per day to host a show, and then DO it? Or are you a CHICKEN? Define being a CHICKEN: Do you make plans and then chicken out? Tell everyone to keep the soup can next to the phone and look at it until the next meeting to decide if they are a chicken or a star.

Team Building Ideas – Seasonal Themes – Christie Northrup

Christie Northrup is the number one authority on team building themes. Well-known for putting a sweet twist on sour situations, the Lemon Aid Lady, as she calls herself, has a wide variety of seasonal or unique team training themes. One of my favorite themes is the October meeting theme of “Them Bones” which is part of her theme training programs.

The objective is to have a fun Halloween theme and use it to illustrate that something is the back BONE of your business. The back BONE is the most important part of your body and the back bone of your business is the most important part of the business. I used to use this theme to talk about host coaching, which I believe truly is the back bone of the direct sales business.  Good hostess coaching will help your team find more bookings & recruits. More themes from the Lemon Aid Lady.

Johnny Appleseed Meeting: Tell everyone to bring a package of seeds. This is another one of my favorite theme meetings. Is your team planting the seeds for the future? What we do in our business today will affect our business most in three months. Creating a theme and asking everyone to bring a package of their favorite seeds will generate curiosity and a meeting topic that is fun. Everyone will bring different kinds of seeds showing that we all run our business differently. Are you planting the seeds today so that you can reap the harvest down the road?

Sales Meeting Tips – Creative Meeting Ideas Connect Team Members

Sometimes it is important to bring another speaker in to talk with your team.  Outside speakers who bring in new ideas and team building training tips will keep the team interested.  Even if the speaker is presenting the same message that you are it will make a huge impact when heard from someone else.  A simple topic that you may already have presented like the value of fairs and expos to generate new business will be more powerful when presented by a new messenger.  Creating meetings that are unique and different every month will insure that your team sales consultants keep coming back. When a team connects at the meeting, they become more committed to their business because they are committed to friendships. Be creative with your meeting ideas by investing in team building training programs and make every meeting different.  The Power UP For Professional Results team training program will increase your team’s direct sales recruiting and lead generation.
