I have worked in retail for so many years.... pushing sales has NEVER been a thing I enjoyed doing. Never has been never will be. I actually turned down a couple of positions while I still worked at Sears because I knew I was not aggressive enough to succeed. I knew I would be setting myself up to fail if I accepted the positions. Hence why I stayed in receiving or helped on the sales floor doing mark downs, ad sets, or doing resets.
While I am an independent consultant with Usborne Books & More, the last thing I want to do is push a sale, beg for my friends and family (or even their friends and family) members to buy books. What I really enjoy doing is sharing Usborne Books & More's amazing award winning titles with everyone. Sharing how these books can help improve the literacy of our children, grandchildren, and all the children in our lives. I want to make a difference in the life they create for themselves. I want to make a difference in the lives of families everywhere.
When I post a message or send a private message asking if you'd like an invite to my party, I'm not doing it to force you to join, participate, or even to buy. I'm doing it because I want to share with you something I think will be a benefit to your children, grandchildren, or any of the children in your life. I ask, because I don't want to annoy my friends and family by adding them to a party without their permission.
Maybe you aren't interested in attending an online party, maybe you are busy the evening I'm hosting, or maybe you just truly not interested.... I will understand, I just ask that you communicate that with me. That last thing I want to do is keep asking each time I host an online event because I truly believe I have something of interest for your family and come across as being annoying or pushing to make a sale.
I also just ask that you maybe consider help me grow my business and spread literacy by liking, sharing, commenting, or even posting a gif or emoji on my posts. Maybe your friends and family will see the post and find it beneficial to their family. Together, we can give our children a brighter future through literacy. When children are given the books they need to improve their literacy skills, books that broaden the world they live in, books that give them the power to become the person they dream of being, it will give our children a better world to live in.
To those who share, like, and comment on my posts often, I Thank you! Because of you, I continue to do what I do without giving up. Because of you, I'm reaching children and families who are falling in love with books and working on building a better future for them. Thank you!
