Welcome to Trades of Hope

Hi there! Welcome to the team! I am so excited to personally welcome you to your new Fair Trade business. Whether you want to make a career out of your business or you’re just looking for a little extra cash to pay off debt or plan your next vacation, you’re going to have a blast as an Trades of Hope Partner and grow in ways you never even expected! Let’s be honest, when I started…I was obsessed with the beauty of our Fair Trade products. For real. Did you see that kit?! It was love at first sight. Plus, it’s such a great deal! If you haven’t received your kit yet, you’re in for a treat. It will be arriving on your doorstep shortly. In the meantime, let’s get started! Lucky for you, there is a TON you can do to launch your business before your kit arrives so there’s no need to wait! We have developed simple, easy-to-follow, self-paced learning modules to get you off to a great start. You can get up to speed in short 5-10 minute blocks of time over the next 30 days. Or, if you prefer, just block off two hours and knock it all out at once. These are the basics you need to know to get started. While there’s plenty more to learn beyond these simple steps, this is all you need to know to begin. Take it one step at a time. I’m right here cheering you on! Tawny’s Bonus Tip: I listen to training while in the car running errands, doing dishes or laundry. Some ladies do theirs while kids are napping or in the evenings over a glass of wine and a bowl of popcorn. Your To-Do List: Watch this short, 10-minute welcome video to get pumped up for your launch! Leave a comment introducing yourself and what you are MOST excited about. “Friend” your Sponsor and Team Leader. Feel free to add me, too! Identify how and when you’re going to fit in the tasks to complete your 30 Day Launch Plan.

WHY?

So, why did you sign up? Do tell! Of course, there’s the pruducts. Duh! They’re amazing, right?! It’s too hard to resist the value of a Trades of Hope starter collection (kit). Let’s dive a little deeper. You may have signed up with a clear idea of how this business opportunity can be a game-changer for your family. Or, you could have been just mesmerized by the artisan stories and wanting ALL the products for yourself or for gift-giving. It was a few short months later when I realized WHY this God presented this opportunity to me and WHY I was going to do everything in my power to use this biz to change the course of my family’s life. What’s your “why” or your motivation? For many, our “why” is our family. We want to create an income that is going to cover dance classes and family trips. We want to create the best future for our kids and financially be in a position to do that with ease. Your “why” might be to have something for yourself because every ounce of your energy is focused on taking care of your family. Hey, having a purposeful hobby that gets you a paycheck is pretty awesome. Watch this short video to learn: Why you need to think about your WHY How to leverage your WHY to elevate your business How to keep your WHY front-and-center when the going gets tough Tawny’s Bonus Tip: Create a visual dream board and put your WHY in the middle. Keep this on your desk, the backdrop of your phone or laptop. Let it serve as a constant reminder of WHY you are here. Your To-Do List: Watch this short, 6-minute video all about WHY. Take a few minutes and jot down your WHY somewhere– even on a post-it! Leave a comment below and share your WHY.
