I just wanted to wish you a happy 4th of July and also just to let you know how excited I am to be with you for just a couple of minutes this morning. I don’t want to take time away from your festivities and your time celebrating with your family. But I do want us to focus on letting our freedom ring.

It’s important that we share about the freedom that we experience as direct sellers. To me it’s so exciting being an entrepreneur with the freedom to set our own hours, with the freedom to work when we choose, and where we choose. We have to freedom to make choices and options for our family and for ourselves and we have the freedom to share and empower others for success. So don’t take that lightly.

I want to thank  all of those that have fought for our country, that have been a part of the military, that have been a part of our special services. I just really love and appreciate you and just want you to know how much we honor you for that and how much we appreciate it.

I also want to give you some very practical ideas that you can put together very quickly as you’re going to be going out and celebrating today and over the weekend.

1. Take along some water. It’s very very inexpensive, but it’s a great way to share with people.
2. Bring catalogs.
3. Also bring drawing slips so that you can do a drawing but share your products, share catalogs. People are usually sitting waiting for parades to start, fireworks to start – they’re hanging out, they want something fun to look at. Especially if you have a product that they can sample right then and there it’s a lot of fun.
4. Also do that drawing with your regular drawings slips so that you can follow up with them and expose them later on to a more private appointment or even into a booking or joining you in your business, depending on where your conversation will lead.
5. Talk to them about the freedom that you enjoy and you experience as well being a direct seller.
6. Make sure that you check online with area parks and your neighborhood for different neighborhood activities. A lot of homeowners associations post those as well. I would plan on activities all day long so just pack the car, pack everything you’ve got. Waters, sunscreen – whatever you can give away and share that.
7. Share your catalogs with as many people as you can. You may also want to put together a flash red, white and blue sale – for any product that is red, white, and blue inside of your catalog.
8. Another great thing would be to add in some kind of a charity – some kind of giving back. I love to give back. So you might want to donate a portion of your profit from your red white and blue sale to wounded warrior project or your choice charity.

I hope you have a great day! I hope you have a wonderful time celebrating your freedom and know that I love and appreciate you very much. Have a fantastic week and I’ll be with you again next weekend. Take care and God bless you!
