Team Training Call 19 November 2012

Sparks Team AMSOIL Training Call for November 19, 2012.
This week we discussed using linkedin.com to build your network and your AMSOIL Business.
We also talked about:

• Sending Thanks to your customers and accounts. You can also include some AMSOIL gifts to show your appreciation
• Holiday’s are coming. AMSOIL  products make great gifts. Our clothing items are great. We have summer and winter items for everyone.  Give an uncle or other relative with a motorcycle of our T-shirts. Or help your parents save money with fuel additives or even an oil change. We’ve been giving AMSOIL gifts to family for years.
• The AMSOIL 40th convention is fast approaching. AMSOIL is slated to give out some free rooms to dealers that register. The sooner you register the more chances you have to win a free stay. It’s a smart idea to start planning now. Have your AMSOIL business pay for your “vacation” to the convention. Plan to bring your family.
• Become a direct jobber before the convention and take advantage of the DJ portion of the week. There is special training just for DJ’s.

We have been using Linkedin.com for several years with great success. Linkedin is an online tool for business professionals to manage connections and contacts as well as find new contacts to add to your network.
You can use Linkedin as a sort of online resume. This allows people that you have worked with in the past to connect as well as new prospective employers find your profile. While we are not currently looking for employment we are always on the look our for talented people to add to our AMSOIL Team.
During the call we discussed various ways to use Linkedin. There was a great article on Inc.com that explains several ways to use Linkedin effectively.
