The whole idea of playing tennis with customers was a gift to me. We are working together.  I know I want to be of help, but I'm afraid of appearing pushy. The 'lean back' and they will 'lean forward' addressed that issue. I want to offer great customer service, but have been hindered everytime I go to pick up the phone. Thank you for the word choices to use and the insight into what the customer is thinking.

Wow, Tammy, I enjoyed every minute of the teleseminar.  There were so many times I laughed out loud at things I had said or done that you mentioned.  There were also numerous times when I nodded my head, again in agreement with what you were talking about. I did start my phone calls yesterday and plan on finishing them after I get my scripts.  There is something about how your words just flow from your mouth and, although I know I can't be you, it sure is nice to try.  You do a phenomenal job!  I was at your presentation in Phoenix to the Pampered Chef and appreciate all the wisdom you share with me.  Thank you for the opportunity to partake in this teleseminar.  See you in the future!

When the email from Tammy arrived in my inbox telling me about this teleseminar, I just knew I had to register.I have been very successful with my home business for almost a year now but am always looking for new ideas to grow and expand my business. I anxiously awaited the Teleseminar and hoped it was going to be good.Well, it surpassed my expectations of good it was amazing!  The amount of great information Tammy had to offer was very eye opening and motivating it give my business that extra jump I have been looking for. I truly believe the skills and knowledge I learned from Tammy were worth every penny and more!Whether you are looking to Jump Start your business or just give it that extra umph you would be a fool not to take this course!

Hi Tamster,I have let go of the little voice in my head and moved on.I have made my list of 10 as you suggested but I added 10 more people that are acquaintances of mine.To my surprise, I have booked 2 January shows and 1 February show since the tele-seminar.Your training hit the bullseye, with all the the right words to say.Your tele-seminar was very helpful, filled with words of wisdom to book shows in those slow months.  I needed to take a beep breath, make those calls.Thank you again.

I am thrilled with the info Tammy gave us during the teleseminar!  I'm looking forward to reading her book also and get myself on the phone to improve my business with the tools I was given!  WOW!!  Thanks for creating the teleseminar!  I will update you when I earn the 2011 Pampered Chef trip!!

I learned to make calls in a different perspective - assume the show, recruit etc.  The assumptive wording will be a very different way for me to make calls going forward!  Thank you.

Just got to be able to hear the teleseminar from the download today.  Loads of great info...you are right...you don't just give us why we should do something and how great it will be when we do it, you tell us HOW, which is HUGE!  I loved the part about the too enthusiatic" on the phone (that's ME!).  It was a complete change of mindset to start talking confidently and normal instead of what I thought I should sound like as a salesperson (I LOVE this stuff, you should too!!).  Thanks Tammy, you are awesome.

I was very impressed but not in the beginning.I thought is was slow but once you started talking more I was getting more excited about different ways to sell.Tell hostesses that they need to book a party by of course asking for their business.  I am really enthused about moving my Silpada business to the next level in 2009.  I already have 6 booked in January.  I hope to have the same amount of shows or more by your words in February that I can use!

"I love your flair. I knew I would receive great information from you, but the call today far exceeded my expections! I learned a more comfortable way of asking for bookings and interviews on the telephone instead of the rote script I have been using. Can you believe that I'm actually looking forward to making calls?"

I have been practicing what you taught without even knowing what I was doing and booked 28 shows in January!  I took your teleseminar in order to help my team members.  You communicated it so well, and some of my team members paid to take the seminar as well.  I am excited as we all put to practice what you taught us.

The tele-seminar was great! The 'a-ha' moments abounded.  I'm one of those who is terrified to pick up the phone anymore, because I've tried all the ways I'd been trained in...enthusiasm, putting my customers in a corner with dates, etc.  Now no one answers the phone.  What you taught made so much more sense.  I love the product I sell, but I don't book home shows for myself, because the "old skool" tactics were used with me.  Thanks for the reminder of standing in our customers shoes.  I feel confident now that I have a future with my business!Thank you!  Thank you!

I have tried many different direct selling companies over the years and I have never had a party in January. Thanks to your tele-seminar, for the first time I have January bookings. Thank you Tammy for your help and keep up the good work.

My business is literally at a standstill.This seminar really opened my eyes to what I was doing wrong.I feel that I have new insight into moving this business to a new level.

I have been following Tammy for a while now and she never ceases to amaze me.  I am always learning new ideas and ways to make my business successful.  I have promoted in my business to the next level and I would say that is largely due to Tammy's help!!Thank you sooo much,

Tammy, thank you so much for this seminar.  You really got through to me, that I do not need to feel like I am pressuring someone to book.  I am offering them the opportunity to get free jewelry, that is all.  It really takes the pressure off of me.Thankyou so much!

I just listened to the replay and I am ready to get on the phone with the greatideas of what to say and more important what not to say.  I feel like I can bemyself on the phone and have more success!!  That you for a great tele-seminar.

What an amazing teleseminar!  Tammy keeps her information simple, practical, and easy to apply to any direct sales business.  With her guidance, success is eminent.

How true it is that postponing the phone calls for one more 'day' doesn't make it any easier!  Now that Tammy has pointed out the obvious, it's time to get on the phone.

I appreciate all of the verbiage.  I get motivated to make those phone calls but then don't because I don't know what to say that would be effective.  I don't want my customers and past hostesses to avoid my phone calls.  This has been extremly helpful!

When I listened to your teleclass, I couldn't keep up with all your great wording!  (I need to learn shorthand.)  Often I find I stammer over my words when talking with customers and prospects... especially on the phone.  Your wording helps me to stop that & get straight to the point without wasting everyone's time or placing unwanted pressure on them. I can't wait to read the scripts!  Thank you so much.

This teleseminar contained extremely good information about re-starting your business after being inactive for a few weeks -which is the case for most direct sellers.It was easy to listen to, provided great hints and tips on how to overcome the usual objections we get at this time of the year.  It is an absolute must for EVERY direct seller!Keep them coming Tammy! -and thanks for the seminar!

I got the kick in the pants I needed to get me motivated! I have tried other programs and speakers through the years, and no one strikes a cord with me like Tammy! Thank you so much, can't wait to try everything out that I learned from this teleseminar!

Tammy gives straightforward, no nonsense,basic information that I will definitely implement right away....no excuses, I will pick up the phone and make an offer they can't refuse...

This teleconference was excellent and well worth the time and money I spent to hear it.  Tammy's unique way of combining humor, real-life experience and motivation was just the recipe" I needed to start cooking in 2010.  After seeing her at the Pampered Chef National Conference in July 2009, I knew she was special.  In her seminar, it felt like she was talking directly to me and no one else was in the room (even though there was).  I was so excited I went home and did a training for our cluster, as well as having 5 consistent months in a row (which was something new for me).  Her book Carpe Phonum is a must read for any direct seller.  I would highly recommend any of Tammy's workshops, books, audios or videos to anyone in the direct selling industry.  Wherever you're at in your business, Tammy will help you make it even better!
