Ha, ha, join the club, Dear! We all have the same set of circumstances, but it is knowledge and persistence that wins the day.
For instance, did you know that most people need to see an advertisement or product/company name TWELVE TO TWENTY TIMES before they act? Keep posting products that you know your family and friends like and need on your Facebook page, send them e-cards with individual messages. Go to Bitstrips and make cartoons of yourself with fun messages about your business. TALK ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS! I mean to everybody. (If your kids complain, tell them this isn't a job, it's your business. It's all on you to get the word out.) Get X-Cards and Gift Cards and send them out. (Send Gift Card codes in your e-cards,too!). Use your imagination to get your company's name and products in front of people. Eventually, they will become faithful customers.
The same goes for your inactive team members. Use your Team Mailer to send out notices of new features. Put goals and incentives on your leadership page and add the URL (WWW.sfimg/leadership/YOUR ID) on every Team Mail, e-mail, e-card and announcement you send out. Write about your successes and share your secrets. Publicly congratulate folks who do something good - even tiny things. If you keep sending out positive messages, SOME people will respond. The rest - let them go. (If you are a praying person, be sure to pray for your team's success and wisdom in how to lead them).
Also, you need to read and grow in your knowledge of sales and team building. This one new thing you learned today will make a GIANT difference in your team, and your attitude! What will you learn tomorrow?
