Crimp, Crimp

I love these awesome long necklaces that you crimp each bead in its own spot. It gets tricky stringing it because you have to know where you’re going to crimp it and remember to put a baby crimp on each side. If you forget one, you may have to just to start over!

Black Long Necklaces

Gayla always comes in the office describing what her and her daughter Natalie made at some Bead Parties. She would be so excited about them and talk like they were so amazing. She finally brought some in and they lived up to our expectations! These are some cute black necklaces she made.

The first one has black Seed Beads; Chinese Cubes in Pink, Red, black, and Crystal; Black Lace Agate; a variety of round Smooth and Faceted Black Beads; Large Black Glass Cubes; 4mm and 6mm Pink, Black, Smoke Grey, Red, and Crystal Swarovski crystals. SO AMAZING.

This second one has Black Seed Beads, Black Bicones, 6mm/8mm/12mm Black Faceted Beads.

The Faceted Beads make is shine and look really classy!

We love these and want to make them for ourselves!

Happy Beading

Building Your Business Night

Bryan Thayer mostly talked about the following:

All About Beads has such a great opportunity for everyone. For less than $1,000 you can be a part of a business and make money within 60 days on your own schedule! That’s AMAZING. We should all be willing to spread this business because it will benefit both you and the people who sign up.

You should define your “Why”. In other words, why are you involved in All About Beads? To make some extra money? To pay the bills? To get away? Write this “Why” down somewhere and put it up somewhere where you will see it. This should motivate you to be more involved in your business because your reason is there to remind you. We naturally move toward what we picture in our minds.

“When your WHY gets stronger… the HOW gets easier.” – Jim Rohn

A great point Bryan made was “The women who have more consultants on their team aren’t any smarter. They think BIGGER.” These women who think bigger recognize and understand the big picture of All About Beads and the benefits you get by having a team.

Every Consultant should have a Contact List that must be your #1 inventory to have. Keep a log of who you meet in a nice notebook and keep it in mind for anything you do. You never know when you may think of that person or when that person may think of you and NEED you.

You should look for opportunities to meet people...

Go in the Bank lobby or Restaurant instead of the drive-thru.

Stay off your cell phone when waiting in line or in a waiting room.

Choose to sit next to people.

Make eye contact with people and even start a conversation. Genuinely compliment them on something. “By being interested and recognizing something unique or special about them, you elevate the conversation to a connection.”

Always have your business cards on hand and even brochures. The brochures and company newsletters are great to keep on hand, so when you are waiting you can pull it out and read it, even though you may have read it a million times. People will notice.

“If people don’t know you’re in business, then you’re not in business.”

You should represent the business when you are out and about by wearing the jewelry. Women love jewelry and may be looking for a way to make it and make money, but they don’t know where to find it. That’s your job to tell them about it. You never know if they are “looking” for you.

You should send out the type of attitude that you wish to attract to your team. Find that person that is even more excited about the jewelry and business than you are!

Training Meeting
Buiding a Better Bussiness

We had a great Training meeting last Wednesday evening. We were so lucky to hear from Bryan Thayer and Diane on how to get your Bead Business out there and how to build a team. Diane gave great tips on what to do at parties to promote MORE parties.

Keri came in the office wearing this and I had to take a picture of it! It has the 8mm Mahogany Swirl, 18mm Camel Faceted, 8mm Camel Faceted, Lt. Brown Square w/ Spots, and spaced with Flower Spacers

So Cute! The colors all go really well together.
