AUGUST 2014 | FACETS 3
MOMENTUM FOR FALLIt’s a brand new season. Get your focus back on the basics of your
business: booking, selling and recruiting. Think of it as a fresh start to
set new goals and give your business a boost just in time for the busiest
selling season of the year. Try the following strategies to help your business
transition successfully from Spring/Summer to Fall/Winter.
BOOKING:
PUSH FOR PARTIES-A-PLENTY
• To jump-start your booking
momentum, host an open house
to debut the Fall/Winter 2014
collection. Create excitement by
emphasizing this is an exclusive
invitation for them to see the
highly anticipated collection.
Schedule a couple of open
house events at different times
or days to give everyone on
your contact list a chance to
attend. To lift any pressure to
purchase, tell Guests you just
want to get their feedback on
the new collection. However,
have your calendar and
business materials ready for on-
the-spot bookings
and orders!
• Call past Hostesses, Customers,
and new contacts, to let
them know a new Style Guide
has arrived and you want to
give them first pick of your
August party dates. Share your
excitement for the infinitme™
necklaces and how much fun
your potential Hostess and
her friends will have with this
collection. For more ideas on
how to incorporate infinitme™
into your business plan, see
pages 8-9.
SELLING: UPSELL TO UPSWING
YOUR BUSINESS
• Now that your party calendar
is booked solid, it’s time to dive
in and offer our abundance of
sparkle. More than 50% of this
season’s styles are less than
$50. From cover to cover, there
is something fabulous for every
budget in the Style Guide.
With this month’s Hostess and
Customer specials, they’ll want
to order everything on their
Wish List!
• Every month, the Customer
Special offers incredible sale
prices allowing Customers to
get the most for their money. In
August, encourage Customers
to shop the big High 5 sale.
They can purchase any item Æ
4 FACETS | liasophia.com
for $50 or less for just $5 when
they spend $99 – easily achieved
when they shop with the Buy 2,
Get 4 offer.
RECRUITING: A PARTY OF ONE IS NOT AS FUN
• Give your recruiting a boost.
Keep your presentation short and
simple, no longer than 15 minutes.
Focus on keeping your party fun,
easy and engaging in a way that
Guests (i.e. potential new team
members) can see themselves
having as much fun as you are.
The sales and bookings will
follow naturally.
• Throughout the party, mention
all of the fantastic incentives you
enjoy as a lia sophia Advisor and
the benefits new Advisors enjoy
as soon as they join your team.
By joining your team this month,
they can receive an additional
$400 in free jewelry. Watch for
Guests who give “green flags”
or clues that indicate they
might be interested in the
lia sophia Opportunity. Green
flags include questions such as
how many parties you do a week,
what is the income potential
and actions like trying on every
piece of jewelry in your display.
Remember, green means go!
We’re kicking off a new game this month.
Part scavenger hunt and part training tool,
we’re going to have some fun with Facets
by giving you three questions to answer.
The answers to these questions can be
found in the articles you read in Facets.
The first 10 readers to correctly answer three
questions by clicking here will receive a gift!

Division Leader Carina Goens shares how
she prepares her business for success in
the new season and her thoughts on the
infinitme™ collection.CARINA GOENS, DIVISION LEADER
Saying “Hello!” to a new Style
Guide is always very exciting and
always creates a lot of buzz. Some
of the activities I do to prepare for
the new season include mailing
a new Style Guide to my past
Hostesses and VIP Customers with
a handwritten note saying, ‘Thank
you for being a loyal Customer.
Please enjoy our latest Style
Guide and let me spoil you with
discounted and FREE lia sophia
jewelry. I would love to get your
feed back on our new collection
– I’ll be in touch next week!’ I have
been doing this consistently for
the past two years and usually
book eight to 15 parties as a result.
I have Customers that look forward
to my mailings.
To become familiar with the new
Style Guide, I schedule a happy
hour mixer with my team and
use it as a training opportunity
to make the transition to the
new Style Guide. Becoming
familiar with the layout helps with
upselling. This allows us to come
together, play with the jewelry and
get creative with different ways to
wear it.
Using social media is a great way
to spark interest and book parties
because we can use so many
visual tools. I love sharing pictures
of my Hostesses and Customers
wearing our jewelry and their
experiences with it.
I am crazy about the infinitme™
collection! It’s something very
fresh, creative and like nothing else
out there. I think this collection is
a great recruiting tool. At all my
parties, I will watch for the gals
who really get the concept of the
collection, show excitement and
who help other Guests with their
creations – those are signs of your
next recruit.

infinitme™
Discover infinite ways to personalize your look, your business and your life.
We’re thrilled with the enthusiasm and
excitement you have shown for the
infinitme™ collection. From what we have
seen so far, the first rule with infinitme™ is …
there are no rules. There are as many ways
to present this collection at your parties as
there are looks to create with it. Give the
following suggestions a try to introduce
infinitme™ to your Customers, Hostesses
and everyone you meet. The next big trend
in beautiful jewelry is here, and this is just
the beginning.
• Everyone loves choices. Consider offering
two different types of parties: Fall/Winter
2014 collection party or an infinitme™
party. Ask Hostesses to hold a special
debut party for this brand new collection.
Once they get a look at these gorgeous
pieces, they’ll be more than happy to be
your volunteers!
• To help introduce infinitme™ at your next
party, suggest that Guests bring their
favorite lia sophia necklaces. They will
see how even one infinitme™ strand can
enhance the piece and their look.
• Bling Bar, Sparkle Station, Build-A-Bling;
whatever you want to call it, set up an
area for Guests to play and get creative
pairing their infinitme™ creations with
other pieces. Refer them to the infinitme™
section of Style Guide to see the full line
and watch their imaginations run wild.

IDEASFOR NEW ADVISORS: If you’re a New Advisor or if you don’t have
many infinitme™ styles in your display yet,
tell your Guests you’re just offering them a
taste of the fabulous collection.
Achieving Smart Start™ goals and stacking
up Jewelry Premiums is the perfect way for
New Advisors to shop for infinitme™ kits
and build their display.
• Help Customers build a fabulous
necklace on a budget. Highlight big
savings with the Buy 2 at regular price,
Get up to 4 at 50% off promotion. They
can start with something they already
have, such as the Classified necklace,
and build from there. To better present
the offer, break down the cost per look:
three strands give you this many looks
(number), equaling this much (cost)
per look.
• Talk about your excitement for the new
infinitme™ line and how this collection
could bring infinite possibilities to your
life. It not only allows you to build and
personalize your individual style, but it
adds to the way you personalize your
business around your life.
FOR CUSTOMERS: Creating an infinitme™ Club is a great way
to keep the excitement high and promote
the collection. Reach out to Customers
and Hostesses who are eager to build their
collection. Book a couple of parties every
month for your club members. This will add
more members over the season. Give every
member a turn to be the Hostess of an
infinitme™ party. PLAY

CANCEL-PROOFYOUR PARTY CALENDAR
Being friendly and flexible is
important to establish good
rapport with your Hostess.
However,
try not let
a potential
Hostess
leave the
party
without
penciling
in a date.
You can say,
“No date
is ever perfect for everyone, but
let’s pencil in a tentative date
that works for the both of us. You
can check the date with the key
people you want to invite and I’ll
call you tomorrow to see if that
date still works for you.”
Now that a date has been
established, keeping in touch with
your Hostess is very important to
continue building the relationship
you began back at the party
where you met. It also shows
you are
committed
to her party
and her
experience
as your
Hostess.
Today, there
are a myriad
of ways
to reach
someone in an instant. Ask her
how she would prefer for you to
contact her, but make sure you
have her phone number as you
may need to call her briefly a few
times – it’s also the best way to
share your enthusiasm for her
upcoming party. The more you
stay connected, the less likely she
will cancel.
It’s no secret, strong Hostess Coaching is the key to cancel-
proofing your party calendar. To help your Hostess have a
successful party and keep her excitement going, a lot depends
on you staying connected with her before her party and how
well you have formed a relationship with her from the moment
AUGUST 2014 | FACETS 11
• Remind her of the monthly
Hostess Special.
• Help with her Guest List.
• Look at her Wish List and explain
how she can earn it all.
• Take a picture of her bonus item
when you receive it and text it to
her or post on her Facebook wall.
• Let her know when her party
invitations have been sent out.
• Ask how RSVP’s are coming
along. (Don’t let her become
discouraged if she has not
received many. Provide a work-
around and remind her that this
is about having fun, even with a
few people!)
• Obtain any Outside Orders.
• Secure any pre-bookings.
• Share the Opportunity with her.

™
What inspired you to begin your lia sophia business? I would have to say the top three
things that inspired me to begin
my lia sophia business was the
immediate flexibility it gave me to
work around my own schedule. It
also gave me the opportunity to
earn extra income for my family
and do the things we want as
my children grow, and the love
and support from my upline
Leader, Heather Dages. She has a
constant joy in her that radiates at
her parties. It lifts up everyone
in the room and inspires women
to feel and look beautiful, and to
believe in their dreams. I knew
that I wanted to do that as well
and be on her team.
What was the best part of the
Smart Start™ program for you?
For me, the best part about the
program was the accountability
and weekly support of my upline.
This month, we spotlight Advisor Brynn Schaefer
for excelling in her Smart Start™ program. Here,
she shares her experiences as an achiever.

I knew that when I checked in with
her, I had to be ready to share my
accomplishments and goals. I was
also motivated to keep working
to get bookings and tell everyone
I knew about my business. Not to
mention, the Jewelry Premiums I was
earning along the way were great – I
couldn’t let those get away!
Has Smart Start™ motivated you to think about recruiting and promoting to Leadership?Absolutely! I was so excited about
sharing the Opportunity, that I
recruited two New Advisors within
my first few weeks of Smart Start™.
I wear the key pendant necklace I
earned as a badge of honor. I knew
that with the momentum and skills
Smart Start™ gave me, I was ready to
build my dream business.
What are some of the goals you have for your business?Long-term, I intend to get to the top
as a Zone Leader! Short-term, I am
currently working on team building
and promoting to Unit Leader. But
beyond promoting, I want to give
women the opportunity to take
control of their lives and grow their
own businesses to achieve their
dreams – whatever they may be.
I want to empower women to
become confident Leaders.
