Start Saving NOW for Seminar
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 $15-$20 a weekeither in a separate savings account!  That   Do it every week without fail.!  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 !

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 2008 in Dallas are July 17-19 for the Diamond Area! ( plan to arrive by 1:00 or so on the 16th  so you have time to go to the Convention Center and pick up your packet as well as register into your hotel and get beautiful for the  Garrett Roe  National Awards Banquet!!)
