Why Are Meetings So Important?
• Meetings are the lifeblood of your business. Without meetings, you essentially have a great idea but no one to share it with or benefit from.
• Before planning your meeting, you must first ask three basic questions:
• What is the purpose?• Who is my audience?
• What is the goal I hope to achieve when it’s over?

Meeting Mechanics
The goal of any meeting should ultimately be to grow your business and attract prospective members to share the plan and opportunity with.
It’s crucial to set clear meeting objectives regardless of the size of your meeting, so that your Associates become familiar with the process and are able to duplicate each meeting thereafter.
Purpose of Meetings
The key to a successful meeting is duplication!
