I Love Send Out Cards! You are reading this blog, probably because you are on our Send Out Cards team, or maybe considering being on our team, although this blog is public and open to anyone.... And I hope has valuable information for everyone.
I am starting this blog because I want to be a better leader. We are managers in Send Out Cards and I thought we would be Senior Managers by this time. When we became managers, we enrolled all 12 of our downline personally. I decided at that time that the first step in Send Out Cards (Distributor to Manager) should be spent learning the system, and how to present it to others. The second step (Manager to Senior Manager) should be spent learning to support your downline and growing depth in your team. This is the step we are still learning ;-)
Last month I went to a class on doing an online business. That I guess is a topic for another blog... but somewhere about mid-week, we split up into teams. Each teams leader had to organize their team and report etc.. and as any good team, the success of each individual was required for the team to be successful. Our team was sadly lacking a leader. Heading into day two of the exercise I decided I had better step up, reluctantly, but none the less, my skills were needed. That is when it hit me, that we all have god given talents that we are supposed to be using. I have not embraced my leadership skills lately... in fact, Mike and I have been together 10 years now... and one of the very attractive things about him to me was that he took charge and I didn't have to... Hummm, a 10 year laziness it was time to break.
Combine that realization with the topic of the training (blogging, online support), and the fact that Damarr (who is not all that computer literate to me) started a blog this month... The stars were aligned. Perhaps I could better support our team with a blog. I also have a new tool to manage email lists, and I intend to email you each time I add a post (just like Damarr!). If you do not want to receive my emails, please "unsubscribe" on the bottom of the email.
Anyhow, not to make this post much longer. I hope to share news and motivation for you through this blog. I plan to include photos of favorite cards (please share yours). I will tell you of favorite conference calls for those of you that do not catch them all... And I'll try not to be this wordy ;-), just provide you a way to stay connected. Send out cards is growing like CRAZY, with 3 new Executive this week and a third Eagle this week. It's an exciting time to be in SOC and we are excited to "ride it to the top".. wanna come along?
The news today! Mike and I are excited to go to the convention in two weeks. I don't think any of our team are joining us however... I will be sharing the news from Salt Lake (through this blog). The convention is the premier event of the year for Send Out Cards, and sure to supply a ton of motivation. I found out this evening that a friend has a spare ticket, for $150 available. That is less than 1/2 price the ticket price at the door. If any of you want an impromptu "vacation" in Salt Lake City we'd love to have you join us.
