As a Direct Sales team leader, it is our job to motivate and encourage our group members to reach their business goals and to recognize their efforts for a job well done.
What do you do to motivate and recognize your team members? Do you even do it at all? If not, you really should be!
I find that doing little things to motivate and encourage my teammates to reach their own business goals helps us both to succeed in the business. Just remember, your own goals are usually not those of your teammates.
Here are a few things I like to do:
1. Send daily or weekly emails with short stories, inspirational articles, business articles and business quotes to my team.
2. If you are recognizing your team members for a job well done and rewarding them with prizes, offer inspirational, motivational and business books as the gifts. This will benefit their business more than a free product or gift from the business line that you all represent.
3. Hold offline meetings and online chats for your entire group. Offer them an incentive to attend and recognize their efforts. You can hold door prize drawings, contests for the members with the highest sales, most parties booked, recruiting contests etc. During the meeting/chat…make sure you offer some team motivation and challenges for the following month.
One of the most important jobs of a team leader is to motivate, support and recognize your teammates for a job well done. By recognizing them for their business efforts, it helps to build a stronger relationship with them. It lets them know that you appreciate them and their dedication to the business.
