WARM CHATTER TRAINING..   
(building precious relationships!)                 

Part One: Preparation

Before you warm chatter:

1. Mentally prepare

A.  Ask for sharp, successful ladies who either need MK the product and/or MK the opportunity. Write down a specific  affirmation that really speaks to you, and repeat it while you are getting ready.

B. Get out of your own way! Pray for  courage to approach the women you want to meet.

2. Physically prepare

A. Dress for success! Imagine Mary Kay Ash was going with youhow would you want to look? Then remember this: you ARE Mary Kay Ash to everyone you meet, so dress accordingly!

B. Wear your pin! Quite simply, it validates to people that you are a representative of the Mary Kay Company.

C. Check to ensure you have all the materials you will need: business cards, samplers, Look books, date book, extra pens.

D. Read over the script(s) that you plan to use. If necessary, write them on index cards and take them with you. You can even practice (not always out loud) while you dress, while you drive, while you wait in line, anytime theres not a lady within three (3) feet of you!

Ready for warm chatter:

1. Smile! A smile radiates positive energy, and you must be an energy-giver.

2. Raise your eyebrows slightly. This will help you look pleasant and approachable.

3. Straight Posture is important, it exudes confidence. Remember, you represent the #1 best-selling brand for 12 consecutive years really show it!

While you warm chatter:

1. Look the person in the eye. (Your right eye to her right eye whenever possible.)

2. Control the speed, tone, and inflection of your voice. (Your tendency will be to go too fastslow down and enjoy the experience!)

3. Always thank the person for her time. (Whether you have booked her, gotten her information, or she has flat turned you downshe has given you the gift of her time; show your appreciation for that.)

Yes = Well it doesnt surprise me. Who is your beauty consultant?

No = Well youre probably wondering what in the world Im talking about! The company sent me all these gorgeous looks. Some are very natural looks, some career, and some are dramatic evening looks. What I do is take a Before picture with a clean, fresh face - I know, nobody likes that part. But then I take an After picture when youve chosen a look. It is really fun and it only takes less than an hour, usually around 45 minutes. Would you consider modeling for me?

Yes = Great! May I get your name and phone number, and when is the best time to call? Okay its date! I promise Ill call you [approximate day and time]. [If she put down a specific time thats better for her, make sure you respond within her time frame!]

Im too busy

Boy, I certainly understand that! Life seems to go faster and faster. I was told several years ago that when you dont have time for a break is when you NEED a break. So let me ask you, do you feel you could use a little pampering? You could even invite two or three friends to share a one-hour spa session. I would love to pamper you and give you a much-needed break!

I dont have the money

Oh, please dont worry about that! This is a free facial, with no obligation to buy at all. Im just offering you a chance to sit back, relax, and have some fun!

I promise Ill call you [approximate day and time]. [If she put down a specific time thats better for her, make sure you respond within her time frame!]

I tried MK and broke out / Im allergic

This one takes some time and effort to overcome. Try something like:

Im so sorry to hear that. If you dont mind my asking, what kind of problem did you have? Was it a confirmed allergic reaction with itchiness and redness or did you break out with blemishes? Which products did you try? Did that consultant work with you at a follow-up facial to solve the problem? Were you able to take advantage of our money-back guarantee? [Listen to her responses to each question.]

If one of you is unsure about the products used or what kind of a reaction it was, then say= Since we have cutting-edge new products, I would love the opportunity to make it right for you.

If she is positive it was allergies, or it was a newer product, or shes just not interested, then say= Im really sorry to hear that. I really dont meet too many ladies who have had a problem with our product. But I appreciate you taking the time to visit with me, and I hope you have a great day!
