An Introduction to Plexus

Trainer Instructions

Introduction Time: 2 minutes

Trainer 1 SAY: So … what is Plexus? As I said earlier, we are the health and happiness company, and we’re committed to providing our customers and Ambassadors with life-changing products – AND a unique and rewarding business opportunity. The combination of our products and opportunity can help you open the door to personal success. Our mission statement (shown on the slide) is: We enhance the health and happiness of those who support, promote and use Plexus products.

SAY: As Plexus Ambassadors, we educate people on how to become healthy from the inside out: (direct attention to slide) We focus on helping people understand the importance of:

removing harmful substances while supporting the body’s natural detoxing process,


replenishing the gut with beneficial probiotics,

rebalancing the body with our TriPlex system

and understanding the reward of sharing these products with their networks.


Plexus Products

Trainer 2 SAY: Did you know? (read statistics, average American stats)

More than 1/3 (36.5%) of U.S. adults struggle with being seriously overweight.

We’re eating 73% more sugar than we consumed in 1900.

85% of Americans wake up tired.

53% of adults report feeling sluggish during the day.

Trainer 2 SAY: Wow! Can you believe those statistics? What about your gut? Do you have concerns there? Bloating, gas, indigestion, immune challenges, skin concerns and poor mood? Plexus has a small but mighty line of 15 unique products that address the very issues that so many Americans are facing. The question I always get is, “Where do I start?”


SAY: By helping to replace harmful substances, replenishg, and rebalancing your body, you can take control of your gut health, improve your overall well-being, and promote weight loss. That makes our powerhouse Plexus Triplex System a GREAT place to start. It truly is the secret weapon your body has been missing. Take a look. Play Triplex Video

Trainer 1 SAY: As you heard in the video, Tri-Plex has been clinically shown to promote weight loss. In that study, 175 subjects were randomly given either Tri-Plex or a placebo. Those who used Slim twice a day and Bio Cleanse and ProBio 5 lost an average of 7.21 pounds in 8 weeks, while the placebo group only lost an average of 0.19 pounds. The TriPlex system promotes safe and effective weight loss and good health from the inside out.


Trainer 1 SAY: The TriPlex system is only part of our product line. ALL of our products are of superior quality in the marketplace, and address health concerns that SO many Americans struggle with. All of our products are gluten free and free of toxic ingredients. Many of our products are also non-GMO and Vegetarian. You can be confident in using Plexus products. And you’ll hear more “real results from real people” tonight! Make sure to connect with the Ambassador that brought you tonight to get additional information about Plexus products – and which may be right for you.


Product Testimonials

Trainer 1 SAY: Ready to hear some more inspiring stories? First: let’s bring up some individuals who have been using the products and seeing results. This is the thing that sets us apart from so many other companies: the testimonials. Our products are changing lives, and I can’t wait for you to hear from our first guest, please welcome________. (IMPORTANT NOTE: The next three slides contain three different disclaimers; one for weight loss using Slim only, one for weigh loss using Slim, Bio Cleanse, and ProBio 5, and one displaying the FDA Product disclaimer. Be sure to display the appropriate disclaimer for the testimonial being shared.) (Allow 1-2 minutes for testimonial #1 and then thank the guest and introduce the next. Please note that the verbiage below is suggested for you if you need transitions.)

Thank you _______ for your vulnerability and for being willing to share your story. I want to ask all of you (audience), who do you know? Who do you know that _____, _____, and _____ (fill in the blanks with examples from testimony). Imagine if you could be the person to bring HOPE through Plexus to those you know and love. Thank you again, ______, for sharing. I’d now like to invite our second testimonial to stage. Please welcome ______________. (Allow 1-2 minutes for testimonial #2 and then thank the guest and introduce the next.)


Trainer 1 SAY: Thank you _______ for being so transparent with your journey to better health. I never get tired of hearing how Plexus is changing people’s health. I want to ask all of you again (audience), who do you know? Who do you know that _____, _____, and ______ (fill in the blanks with examples from testimony). (Ask the person who their sponsor is. Then, say to the sponsor): Because you said ‘yes’ to Plexus, you gave ____ hope and an opportunity for a better life through Plexus. (To the audience, ask this question): What if you said yes to sharing Plexus. Whose life could you change through these products? Thank you again, ______, for sharing.


Trainer 1 SAY: I’d now like to invite up our third testimonial. Please welcome _________. (Allow 1-2 minutes for testimonial #3) Wow _______! Thank you for sharing your story. Again, (to audience), who do you know? Who do you know that ______, ______, and _____ (fill in the blanks with examples from testimony). Who can you tell ____’s story to and give them hope for better health? Because I said ‘yes’ to Plexus, thousands and thousands of lives have been changed. But it would have been worth it to have just changed one life. What if you could change one life, how about 10 or 100 or even thousands like _____ and I have been able to?

ACTIVITY: Giveaways

You know, everyone wins with Plexus … with the opportunities for weight loss … better health … improved finances. And now … we’d like you to win some products! Trainer: Talk a little about the products being given away and what they do. Do drawing for 2-3 giveaways.


An Introduction to Social Marketing

Trainer 2 SAY: It’s incredible knowing that I have played a small part in changing thousands of lives. Trainer: Tell your own story about getting started with your business. Here is an example: I had so many excuses to NOT do Plexus: I was busy, I have young children, I was a teacher buried in the responsibilities that come with that profession, and I had done network marketing before. And failed. But I am so glad that I pushed my fears and excuses aside and said yes to an opportunity that has completely changed our health and finances. I know that there are many others who are looking to live and work on their own terms, and that’s what building a home-based business through network marketing can do for you.

SAY: Today, the way people are working – and the way they are doing business – is changing. People want more flexibility – they want to have more say in HOW they work, WHEN they work, and WHO they work with. Think about things like ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft … and new ways of vacationing, like Airbnb. These are new ways of doing business, and they’re giving people all kinds of flexibility in their work styles. Social Marketing is the original flexible work style! More and more people are looking to Social Marketing for that very reason. Let’s look at a few interesting statistics about home-based businesses – like Social Marketing businesses. Trainer: Read the stats from the slide.


SAY: In addition to the benefits that Social Marketing provides you as the Ambassador, it also offers many additional benefits to the customer:

Products are provided via word of mouth rather than through advertising or celebrity endorsements. That means products are shared with real people by real people.

Social Marketing is an effective distribution system that eliminates several steps

in the traditional distribution channel …

and that means higher quality products can be provided at lower costs.

SAY: Here you can see that traditional distribution channel. So the shoes you’re wearing today, for instance, traveled this long and winding road. From the manufacturer to the wholesaler to the warehouser, through advertising … then the retail outlet … where you purchased them. BUT, with Plexus, your products come directly from the manufacturer to the Ambassador. All those steps that have been taken out of the chain mean a more efficient delivery system.


The Plexus Opportunity

Proven System of Success

Trainer 2 SAY: As you can see, the power of social marketing and time leveraging is real. Now, let me share with you all the reasons Plexus is the one company in this great industry that you want to be a part of. Plexus provides a proven system for success.

Low Cost: You can join as an Ambassador for just $34.95. You’ll receive our amazing training Success Kit, which gives you everything you need to start strong! To be commission qualified as a Plexus Ambassador, you only need 100 personal volume – that means the amount of product you personally sell – which can include the products you purchase yourself. This is a simple and achievable goal and a very low minimum compared to other companies in our industry.

No Inventory or Delivering Products: Products are delivered directly to your customers, which means you don’t keep an inventory or deliver products!

Consumable products: This is so important when looking for a social marketing company to join. Our products are used daily, so that means repeat customers and repeat sales for you. I joined Plexus ____ years ago, and I still have customers from my earliest days as an Ambassador.

In business for yourself: When you join Plexus, you are in business FOR yourself but not BY yourself. You have immediate support and you become a part of a community that is dedicated to loving and serving by helping people achieve good health.

Build alongside your current job: (share your own story – following is an

example: I built my Plexus business while working my job. I was able to work my business into the nooks and crannies of my life by becoming a master of moments. Meaning that because we don’t have to host parties or deliver products, I could work from my cell phone during my lunch break or while my kids were at swimming or gymnastics practice. If you have time to scroll through Facebook each day, you have time to work a Plexus business.)


#OnePlexus: There is something amazing about being a part of a company

with likeminded people who care about the health of others. Our company is

made up of people who have big hearts. We are not working to get a ‘sale’ but

instead we are working to bring health freedom to those who need it. We link

arms to bring health and happiness to the masses.


Opportunity Testimonials

Trainer 1 SAY: (suggested verbiage) Earlier we heard stories of how Plexus products have changed lives through better health. Now let’s talk about how the Plexus opportunity can help with getting finances in order. Please welcome our first guest, an Ambassador from … _______. Trainer: Allow 1-2 minutes for testimonial #1.

SAY: (suggested verbiage) Wow, what a great story! Thank you so much for sharing. Now I’d like to welcome our second Ambassador to stage to share their story. Please welcome ______. (Allow 1-2 minutes for testimonial #2) What an amazing story! Plexus has given you the opportunity to _____, _____, and _____ (fill in with examples from testimonial). Thank you for sharing with us tonight.


Plexus Compensation Plan

Trainer 1 SAY: The Plexus opportunity is unlike anything else in Social Marketing. Get this: we get paid 11 different ways! No one else does that! Trainer: talk through a few of the 11 ways on the slide. With Plexus, we get paid weekly – in addition to our monthly commissions and bonuses. I actually receive 5 commission checks a month from Plexus! Be sure to ask the person who invited you to share the details of this compensation plan with you. Plexus is so generous, and I know you’ll want to know all of the details. In fact, if you decide you want to get started tonight, you could have a check as early as next Friday!


SAY: Take a look at this slide with me. These are the average earnings of Plexus Ambassadors at all of the different ranks. My first checks were a game changer for our family … but maybe you want extra play money to go out with your friends … or make a splurge purchase each month? Or maybe money to enroll your kiddo in piano or soccer? Or maybe this would help ease the end of the month pinch…where you have more month than money because you are living paycheck to paycheck?

ACTIVITY: Recognize the Ranks SAY: Look around this room! Each of the individuals who are standing have found three…yes just three people who could benefit from our products and business opportunity, who joined them on this journey. We all know 3 people who could use an extra income each month – right? Trainer: Ask the Silvers to sit. Go through the rest of the ranks to recognize them.


SAY: Let’s take a look at this quick video to learn more about Plexus and the opportunities that can be available to you! PLAY: Internal Marketing Video

SAY: Can you believe all of the great events that happens when you join Plexus? You get the opportunity to earn amazing trips, shopping sprees, moments in the convention spotlight, and much more. (Discuss Plexus perks: travel, fun, gifts/recognition in general terms – nothing lavish like Lexus or Hawaii trips).


Trainer 2 SAY: There are 2 ways you can become involved in Plexus: you can be a customer or an Ambassador. We love our customers and are committed to making sure you receive incredible support as you begin your journey to health and happiness. When you join as a Preferred Customer, you choose the products you want and you receive them automatically every month. No running out and placing a last-minute order – your order comes on the day of the month that you choose. Plus, you get a discount on your products!

SAY: You can always be a retail customer too – and just order what you want when you need it – but you don’t get that discount. Or … you can spend $34.95 and join as an Ambassador. This gives you the opportunity to build a business with this amazing company. You have the immediate support of product developers creating cutting edge products, a great customer service team, super creative marketing and sales teams, a dedicated shipping department, an incredible training team … and maybe most importantly, a replicated website where your customers can place their orders. All for just $34.95!

Trainer 1 SAY: As an Ambassador, you might want to earn enough to get your products paid for … you may want to earn a few extra hundred dollars a month … or you might want the opportunity to go ALL IN and start working on building a successful, long-term business. No matter what, there is a place for you with Plexus. I’d would like to take a moment and recognize an important member of our Plexus Worldwide family that is with us tonight. (Introduce Sarah with her intro below and include any stories you would like to share about her)

Sarah’s Bjorgaard’s Intro:

We’re honored to have Sarah Bjorgaard, the Vice President of Global Sales for Plexus Worldwide, here with us today. Sarah has more than 24 years in the Direct Selling Industry. She began her career at the young age of 18 building her very own business and quickly moved up into the top 2% of that company, where she remained building a large and successful organization for well over 16 years. During her time in the field she earned countless awards for recruiting, selling, developing leaders, and breaking records. Sarah is passionate about developing leaders and helping the everyday person understand that you DON'T have to settle for your ‘default future’.

Sarah joined the corporate side of Direct Sales in 2008 so that she could share important lessons learned along her journey. But her ability to rock you OUT of your default future and inspire you to create the future you truly deserve is unmatched. She’s been quoted in the DSN magazine


when she shared that “Direct Sales changes the world one life at a time” and she is living proof of that theory.

For the last 14 months she has called Plexus home, and has fallen in love with being your Vice President of Global Sales! Would you please help me welcome – Sarah Bjorgaard!

(BEE-Your-Guard)


Closing

Trainer 2 SAY: It’s said that 36% of Americans have no money saved for retirement and almost 1/2 of all Americans would not be able to cover an unexpected expense of $500 or less. Working past retirement age has unfortunately become a reality for many of us. Many families do not have a college fund for their children, and a staggering 38.1% of Americans are in credit card debt. So tonight, ask yourself the question, “What IF?” Where will you be in 5 years if you keep doing what you are doing right now? Where will your health be if you don’t make a change? Where will your finances be if you don’t do something different? Maybe you just need an extra couple hundred dollars a month to create more margin in your finances. Or maybe you want the opportunity to create a successful long-term business? I am living a life of freedom that I could’ve never imagined before Plexus. This opportunity could ABSOLUTELY be the vehicle that takes you from where you are right now to where you want to be -- all while changing the lives of others as well. I hope you will get with the person who invited you tonight to ask all the questions you need to … then let’s get you started on your own Plexus journey! We have discovered something that is so amazing, we want everyone to benefit from it like we have! It is my heart’s desire to get you started on this journey to achieve your health and financial goals with us. Trainer: Welcome the Local Host to the stage to lead the last giveaway.

ACTIVITY: Giveaways

Local Host SAY: Host: Thank the two trainers for sharing their knowledge and time. Lead the last giveaway and close the session.


Before we let you go, let’s do one more drawing for some of these incredible products! Who’s ready to win? Host: Read something from the back of the product card as you are giving it away. Here is an example: This product contains more than 20 vitamins and minerals for optimal nutrition AND delivers high-quality whey protein isolate and concentrate…who wants to win a bag of chocolate Plexus 96?

SAY:

Thank you for coming tonight! Safe travels home!
