Stop Direct Sales Business Recruiting…
Posted by Deb BixlerStart Making Friends In Business!
The best direct sales business recruiting tip I can give you is to stop recruiting and start making friends! The first in a series of recruiting training events, this is part of the Direct Sales Recruiting University.
Direct Sales Recruiting Training
Over the next 10 days we will continue to post training for the direct sales industry on the topic of recruiting. The next one is already live!

A Happy DSRU Graduate: I really got a lot out of the direct sales university. The down to earth attraction marketing technique really works!! I was so also impressed with the meeting planning tools that you gave us. I have had more people showing up at our meetings since using some of the themes and training topics you talked about.

Direct Sales Business Recruiting Tips
- Stop recruiting… start sharing!
- Share the memory not the facts!
- Write your elevator speech that can be said in less than 1 minute and share it at all your shows! (But not in elevators!)





Great training, very motivating. I am gonna work on my story today. Love your easy to follow training it really makes sense. I can’t wait to hear more.
thanks so much for sharing, Deb! I love what you’re laying down! Sharing the memories
Thanks for the great FREE training, Deb! I have had several DSM businesses in the past, but this one I\’m involved with now is very relatable to me in all aspects of my creative life. Thanks for the reminders of what it\’s all about!
Thanks Deb. Very good info. The format you gave on creating ones story very easy to follow. Will no work on that today.
Thank you for this..my biggest challenge is the consistent show schedule. I realize its really about asking.
I tried to listen on Sat. 21st and the replay would stop about every 30 seconds and finally it didn\’t start the replay and we were still on the introduction.
2nd try worked to receive the webinar and I’m so glad that it did. Great info. especially about sharing my story in 1 minute and remembering to keep my focus on others and also on their emotions.
Glad you got to listen, Sue, that sounds like a server issue (could be yours or mine, or YouTube) with stopping, etc. Sorry you had trouble!! One of those out of control things. Glad you came back and took the time to comment too! Thanks!
Yes, it is difficult to recruit when you don’t have enough business for yourself!! There are hundreds of articles on finding business here, Renate, We spend an hour on bookings in the full version of the DSRU. Check out all the ideas in this link: http://www.createacashflowshow.com/category/building-show-business
and the program that is 8 hours of BOOKINGS info is this one called Power UP For Professional results: http://www.createacashflowshow.com/find-bookings
Thanks, Tammy, Debbi and Bob and also everyone who is sharing – I wish the blog had a “like” feature. Maybe I will use this as a “like” sign…. (*_*)
Is there anything in this series about bookings and how to get them? If there is could that be covered please and thank you.
There is, Melissa – On our next training we will touch on that. Seems like everyone wants more bookings!!
Thanks Deb for your wonderful trainings! I am working towards replacing my career income & am inspired by all of your work. Just think of how many people’s lives you are changing!!!! Thanks again!
I cannot say thank you enough! There are so many DS Training sites out there but yours stands out because have so much to offer and so so with expertise.
Wow! thanks, KerrieLynn
The one thing I need more of is bookings, will this cover that. I see you said it did so I am looking forward to that.
WOW!! Just stumbled on this site today and the fates must have steered me toward this link! My first thought: ‘Now this is my kinda gal! I’m just not syrupy fake and all! I love how genuine you are. Down to earth, real talk, that makes sense and is inspiring! THANK YOU!!! Just like most, I need more bookings and will be looking those articles, etc up next. I am geographically challenged, but determined to not let my location limit my success! I live on an island in Alaska with a rather small community and am just discovering the possibilities of online marketing.
Love all your training Deb. Especially liked the ‘creating your story’ on this video.
Loved this Deb, it just hit so many A-ha’s for me!! Thank you so much and I look forward to watching the rest of them. You are awesome!
Thanks for the feedback, Nicole and Maribel.
Thanks Deb! I feel like you helped me set up a firm foundation for my business, or at least helped me to know the materials I need to build that foundation.
I love your tip about how to share one’s personal story. You made it so simple and I could really relate to leaving the corporate world to do what I loved. Just putting it into words has been difficult. However, with your back suggestions, I will be able to do so now.
Good! Your personal story is only one time to share at the beginning to plant the seed then as you see in future videos you keep sprinkling info to create desire! Thanks for sharing Jennifer!
This is great! I’m recommending it to others now. Thank you for sharing and I wish you much success. If we keep helping enough people get what they want, we will eventually get what we want and feel better about the process along the way. Thanks again!
Yes, this REALLY is great! I’m recommending it to my team too. I never thought of going to a vendor event as a guest and networking. What a great bookings tip. You always come up with something that I never heard any one else say. Thanks!
Hello! I got in late, is there anywhere I can listen to the previous replay(s)? Thank you!
Hi Cookie,
I sent you an email direct…. this comment on the Direct Sales Recruiting University was on the 1st training event…. the next 3 are after that. The only one you missed was the introduction which is here:

There are many experts in direct sales but my favorite is Deb Bixler. I have participated in the paid version of DSRU, twice and each time I share my lia sophia opportunity with others I can hear Deb’s ideas and suggestions talking to me inside my head. I am now doing the Free version and have my team joining in as well. Thanks, Deb…
Can’t wait to see more! I will be sharing this with everyone I know who is involved in direct sales.
Hi Deb, this was awesome! I finally got time to listen and I am going to get caught up on the others. I really want to take my team and my Avon business to the next level this year and this already gave me some great ideas! THANKS ! PS I work in Lancaster, PA for my day job
Hey Deb! LOVE it! You are so practical and I truly appreciate your generosity posting all of this for FREE! My Thirty-One Gifts team is looking forward to having you speak at our upcoming training! I’m psyched to bring you in as part of our awesome training program! Carol
Great training Deb ! I look forward to listening to the others.
Hi Deb- Great information. Reminds me of how I used to do business. I made friends and the customers came. I build my MLM from the friends I made in the warm market. Thank you for taking the time to share your story with us.
Glad you like it, Lori~~
Such a good ‘injection’ into the biggest challenge…recruiting passionate fellow direct sellers…can’t wait for more action steps I can take.
I have been watching these videos for a while to day and I am blown away by the fantastic information contain in them. Deb you are a Gem. I am re-energized!
Thanks, Sheila – Glad you are liking the info! Thanks for saying so.
