2. Cambridge WELCOME Objective: To inform you of the protocol and skills required for remote consulting 3. Cambridge Background to remote consulting Pilot was conducted for 3 months using Michelle Farrall in Perth and Nicole Towsey in Queensland to test if the service would be successful Pilot enabled us to develop a protocol of the best way to deliver the service Pilot enabled us to establish if remote consulting could deliver the same results as face-to-face support 4. Cambridge Benefits of remote consulting: Enables us to reach clients who have no consultant nearby Additional income for consultants Can recruit new consultants in remote areas Opportunity to sponsor remote clients and grow our market 5. Cambridge Concerns to overcome with remote consulting Level of service may be compromised without face to face contact Needed a way to identify true identity and genuine weight of remote client Needed a way to establish the true weekly weight loss of client Problems with technology when skyping 6. Cambridge Results of the remote consulting service All clients lost weight in the same way as would be expected with face to face meetings Clients still developed a strong rapport with their Consultants Weekly contact and support was vital for ensuring the client remained motivated Skyping was often frustrating due to technical problems. So sufficient time must be allocated for skyping sessions 7. Cambridge Who can you consult remotely? Leads passed onto you from HO Clients that have moved to a different locality Friends/contacts that currently live away from where you consult Potential clients that have contacted you through our website or Facebook 8. Cambridge What is the protocol? 9. Cambridge 1 For clients you have never met 1. You must first screen them face to face. This means you will have to visit them for the first time in person. The most cost effective way to do this is to try and get a group meeting together. If you have 5 people or more, we will pay 50% towards the cost of your trip to screen them. This is a condition laid down by the UK and is non-negotiable. There will be a presentation made available for you to talk through. This is optional 2 The clients must agree to having their before photos taken during their initial consultation. 10.

Cambridge Sending stock to clients 20. Cambridge Your first remote client package This should consist of: 1. 2 weeks supply of assorted shakes/soups/porridge/rice pudding 2. 1 tub fibre 3. Steps booklet 4. 2 ketosis sticks This can all be posted in a 1-3 kg post bag @ $14.80 (bulk purchase of 10 brings cost down slightly). You may offer this service free or charge a nominal fee of $5. Postage is also tax deductable. You will still earn $45 on 2 weeks supply instead of $60 but hopefully, pick up new clients from their recommendations 21. Cambridge Stock issues Do not post stock to clients unless you have a signed PRF from them If you are travelling to a group meeting, ensure you take with you a sufficient mix of stock to allow your clients to buy 2 weeks worth each. Be prepared to hold sufficient stock to deal with remote orders work out a stock order level that you must have to service them You client must order stock at least a week before required, so allow enough time for you to post it and them to receive it before they run out You may have to keep track of this yourself and remind them that their order is due Try and keep orders and skype consultations on the same day of the week. It helps with posting stock and keeping track of orders 22. Cambridge Would you like to become a remote consultant? If so, you will need to apply for a remote consulting license You will need to consider: 1. Do you have any contacts, community links, health professionals, with whom you can come into contact and who can help you organise a group that you can visit? If so, let us know and we will offer you 50% towards your trip to meet them. 2. Are you prepared to do some local marketing in the area or amongst the community you wish to target? 3. Do you have the time to skype, post stock and keep track of stock ordering so that you can provide a first-class remote service? You can of course, also wait for leads to come from HO. 23.
