3.I MPORTANT DMPD I DEAS 1.For appointments, dress sharply and look neat. 2.Relax and enjoy yourself. Let the Holy Spirit do the convicting. 3.Use the word “invest,” not “donate” or “support.” 4.Work hard and expect results - “According to your faith, so be it unto you.” 5.Emphasize the “Mission Team” idea (i.e., they are part of a team with you to reach people for Christ).

6.Don't be afraid to ask for one challenging amount. “Small plans don't inflame the hearts of men.” They appreciate an idea of how much you are expecting. 7.Don't ask people to invest for one year. Don't even mention the amount of time, but assume it will be forever. 8.Develop the art of how to network for contacts and consistently practice it regardless of how many contacts you now have or think you need. 9.Never stop working on improving your attitude. Listen to the Attitude Messages daily as you travel to appointments. 10.Develop a prayer list of people for your Quiet Time. These people will be on your “Appointment Set Record.”

4.FINAL WORD OF EMPHASIS Have a daily Quiet Time - praying for people (Appointments, Decisions, Contacts). Listen daily to the Attitude Messages. Spend hours/week calling for appointments at scheduled prime calling times. Always read the “Blurbs” and the “Reading Close” NATURALLY and with ENTHUSIASM while SMILING. After reading “Our Teams Financial Need” sheet, WAIT. Ask all for the one challenging amount, never less. Ask everyone for contacts, not just those that become a Ministry Partner and not just when you think you need some more. [Remember, get them to a “list” and “network.”]
