Saving for Seminar.. Great ideas
 If you did not attend Seminar this year, for one reason or another, start planning and saving now to attend next year!  I sincerely believe that each year you miss Seminar, it holds you back a year in the achievement of your goals. 

Some tried and true ideas for saving for Seminar-then when it comes, you have it all paid forits the stress-free way to attend the greatest event of the Mary Kay year!

1.       Put aside $10-$12 a weekeither in a separate savings account, or you can send it to me!  That way I will collect it for you, and you cant spend it!  Do it every week without fail, and it adds up to $520-$624 for the year!  If you just put it aside yourself, its too tempting to embezzle it - you must be very self-disciplined not to dip into your piggy bank!

2.       Put aside $1 for every sales ticket you dirty.  In other words, every time you write up an order for a client, put a dollar bill in a separate envelope for Seminar.  Of course, the amount you save will depend on how much you sell in a year!

3.       At every deliver, practice you suggestive selling techniques.  Take the money from the extra sale and put it into your Seminar Account.  Do this with just 1 item per sale and watch your account grow!

4.       Are you a coupon clipper?  If you are, keep track of the value of the coupons you redeem and put that cash into a separate account.  You would have spent that cash if you hadnt had the coupons.  It makes it into a game, and it can add up very quickly!

5.  Use your "ProPay" account as your savings account.  Keep money from your credit card sales in that account and forget about it, until it's time to pay for Seminar next year!

All the above ideas will help you save for Seminar next year.  However, as most ideas I share with you, THEY ONLY WORK IF YOU USE THEM!  Start now, so next year instead of wondering how you can go to Seminar, you have it all paid for and can go debt-free and stress-free!  Start now, today, with one of these ideas- Keep me informed which one you're doing and how its going!  I can give treat pep talks, if you ever need to be re-sold on the technique! 

Discipline yourself to do this weekly, not weaklyand I'll see you in Dallas next yearCelebrating your accomplishments!  Plan ahead - the dates for Seminar 2007 in Dallas are July 22-25 for the Diamond Area!
