TEAM ETIQUETTE &

GROUP PRESENTATIONS

Purpose of EventsDistributors…the purpose of these

events is for you to build your business and the leaders to help you do this.

There is a misconception that guests are to get their energy from the speaker. NOT TRUE! It comes from all the distributors in the room! The speaker needs your help. PARTICIPATE WITH ENTHUSIASM!

Before a Meeting…

Whenever possible, pick up your guests

Do not give them the presentation on the way to the event!

Tell them your story Edify the presenter Be excited and enthusiastic*All of this information is also true when

preparing for a 3-way call

At the meeting…

Be early! Set an example for your guests.Introduce your guest to the leaders around

the roomSeat your guest in the front of the roomMake sure your guest has a “decision

pack” clipboard with a cover sheet to write names on and take notes

Sit with your guestLean forward in your seat while the

speaker is talking. Keep a positive attitude even if your guest

or other distributors don’t have one.

At the meeting

Do not leave to go to the bathroom during the presentation

Do not take phone calls during a meeting unless it is an absolute emergency

Your phone must be on vibrate or off. If a phone rings, you will owe a fee to the “Boresha Cell Phone Charity Fund” which will go to the kids we support.

Participate by raising your hand and nodding in agreement with the speaker

After the meeting…

Stay seated with your guest after the meeting is over Ask your guest, “What did you like?” Ask your guest, “Is there anyone you can think of

that would benefit from what we have to offer?” (Start their list right then on their clipboard.)

Wait for a leader to come to the guest to answer their questions.

Do not interrupt when a leader is speaking to a prospect!

DISTRIBUTORS…DO NOT ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT PRODUCTS LIKE BUFFERED CAFFEINE AND MATRIX OR THE COMP PLAN AT THIS TIME!

Time spent…

Spend 95% of your time with the RED apples in the room

Spend 5% of your time with the GREEN apples in the room

Spend 0% with the rotten apples. Move on!

Simple Rules

No children at meetings. Children are distracting to the speaker, other guests and parents that have the children. No one around them will be able to focus on the information if a child is being disruptive.

Find an alternative way to get the parents to a presentation (one-on-one, 3-way, etc.)

SUCCESS!

We are the Boresha team! The leaders do these events to help

you build your business and maximize your efforts.

Follow our guidance and we will all be successful together.

1. The following is a proper introduction: ”Mr. boss, I would like you to meet our client, Mr.

Smith.”

True or False

FALSE! Introduce the person of greatest

authority or importance first. When a client is involved

mention him or her first. Include first and last names.

2. If someone forgets to introduce you, it’s

appropriate to move on with the conversation

without saying anything.

True or False

False! Say something like, “My name is Mimi. I don’t believe we’ve

met” or “I’m Mimi, Dave’s wife…and you are?”

3. If you forget someone’s name, don’t worry about it. Just keep

talking.

True or False

False. It’s o.k. to admit you can’t

remember someone’s name. You can say something like, “My mind just went blank. Your

name is…”

4. When shaking hands, a man should wait for a

women to extend her hand.

True or False

False. Business etiquette has become

gender neutral. Women don’t have to hesitate to offer their hands first.

5. Who goes through the door first…the host or the

visitor?

Host or Guest

Host. That allows for the host to be

ready on the other side to direct the guest.

6. It’s o.k. to hold private conversations in public

bathrooms, elevators, and other public places.

business transactions.

9. It is appropriate to tell business associates that

their zipper is open.

embarrassed once they realize their zipper has been open. Take that person to the side and subtly advise them to zip it up. Same goes for food or

lipstick in teeth and other potentially embarrassing

situations.
