New Year, New Me!

Avon is not like most other companies in that it uses a Fiscal year instead of a calendar year.  Our "cycle" as we call it runs from Campaign 8 through Campaign 7 of the following year.  This usually occurs sometime around April 1 - March 30th.  As we have just recently started a new year, it's time for me to revisit my annual goals and plan for an even "Better Tomorrow!" as Avon says. 

So, as I look at what I've already accomplished in just two campaigns, I'm seeing the need to up my goals.  After all, a goal is only a goal until it is reached.  At that point a new goal needs to be set.  Therefore, here are some of my new goals for this New year!

1- Make President's Club by Campaign 20.  From the moment I began my career as an Avon lady, I made the goal of achieving PC by Campaign 22 each year.  When I joined, it was during Campaign 22, 2006.  I set my goal then and there to earn PC by Campaign 22 the following year.  Each year since then I have earned PC by Campaign 22, with the exception of last year.  Last year things we a bit rough on me so it took me a few more campaigns to reach my PC goal.  So this year I want to make up for that by earning PC by Campaign 20.  This will mean that my sales will have to be around $777 per campaign on the average.  I think I can do it.  I am averaging that right now with just two campaigns in.

2- Regain my AUL Title by July 2012.  A couple years ago, I had reached Advanced Unit Leader title and was loving the boost in income and team members.  I want that back.  My dream has always been to reach the highest level of leadership (SEUL) and be the first to do so in my district.  That dream is still achievable and alive within me.  But in order to do that I need to advance in title soon.  In order to make this a reality, I need to help my team build their teams.  I need to find the right people who want to earn more money with me and work closely with them to get them moving up the leadership ranks.

3- Add 50+ new team members to my 1st generation this year! This is totally achieveable.  All I need to earn this is to sponsor/recruit two new team members per campaign.  Lately, I've been doing that and then some.  I'm signing up 3 people just this week for Campaign 11 and got two in for Campaign 10 and 8!  Campaign 9 brought in 3 new reps joining me.

4- Help Two team members become AUL.   I love my team and would love to be able to help everyone achieve AUL or above.  However, they have to want this as badly as I do for them.  I have a huge list of who I think on my team would make an exceptional leader but they need to want it to.  I will be reaching out to those members to see who wants my assistance to reaching their goals.

5- Consistently Hold Monthly Unit and Opportunity Meetings.  I used to do this in the past but let life take hold of my leadership business.  Now it's time to get back into the drivers seat and get the show on the road!  My team needs me and I want them to know that I am there for them.  My first meetings are scheduled for May! 

I hope to revisit these goals here on the blog and provide you all with updates as the year progresses so you all can see how well I'm doing or not doing in meeting these goals. 

Well, I'm off to break new records... see you at the Top!
