What do we look for in a Brand Ambassador?

What do we look for in a Brand Ambassador? - Part Two

One of our core values here at B23 is 'Work Ethic'. What we mean by this, is having a positive attitude toward your learning and development. That's why we always state on our job adverts that no experience in direct sales is required. We will teach you the systems you need to be successful, we just need you to be reliable, punctual and maintain what we call a 'student mentality'.

We see it time and time again, candidates with the best work ethic go on to achieve a much higher rate of success, not only in their career but in their personal life as well.

Are you the type of person who got up, showered and dressed every morning during lockdown? Do you make your bed every morning? Do you put aside time to maintain a healthy diet and fitness regime?

These are the things that demonstrate your attitude to life. They may not seem like big things but they do make a difference. We've all accepted that we had days in lockdown where we just couldn't adult. We wanted to stay in our pj's and binge watch Netflix. It's ok to accept that those days will happen, as long as you pick yourself back up and focus again.

These are the attributes that will make you incredibly successful in life and a strong brand ambassador. If you're showing up, listening and taking notes during coaching sessions, 'trying' to apply the skills being demonstrated by our leaders, then you will go on to achieve success.

There's no shame in failing, only in not willing to try. We hammer this point regularly because tenacity is a key ingredient here.

Why did we ask if you make your bed every morning? It's a proven marker that it increases your productivity for the day ahead. It encourages you to tidy the rest of the house and a tidy house means a tidy mind. It demonstrates that you are taking care of yourself and value the quality of your sleep. If this is your attitude to your day, then it will be your attitude to your work and that means we want to hear from you.

Does Lockdown mean your business has to stop? How to survive a pandemic!

It's true that every challenge also presents you with an opportunity. Here at B23, we didn't want a pandemic to stop us from achieving our goals, instead we just had to rearrange them to see what could still be achieved. A lot of direct sales marketing companies made the mistake of downing tools completely and focused purely on retention of their best people. Whilst this is so important, there were a number of things we identified that we knew we had to maintain focus on. By far one of the most crucial elements was Recruitment. We knew we had the ability to move our world class sales coaching online. This gave us the opportunity to recruit just as aggressively as if the office was open. 2020 had already taught us to embrace technology and move the various stages of our recruitment process to platforms like Zoom. Our Open Days, 2nd interviews and Inductions had all already moved across. Embracing online conferencing actually improved our networking ability. We're lucky ...

Founders Mentality - Our read of the season!

Here at B23 we're always interested in reading material that will ensure our future success. For this article we wanted to share with you 'The Founders Mentality' by Chris Zook & James Allen. It is so interesting and no matter where you are as a company, whether it be starting out or well established, this is a must read. Special thanks to Bain & Co as well who we have been lucky enough to see first hand and understand the benefits of a Founders Mentality. Their insight is invaluable and you can get a great understanding of it through their eyes on the internet. The best way to introduce you to this mentality is to say that it's about how companies can combat the Growth Paradox, but what does that mean? Just 1 in 9 companies achieve sustained profitable growth over 10 years. 85% of executives blame that on internal factors. Put simply, Growth creates complexity and complexity kills growth. Every company sets out as what we call an 'Insurgent'. They...

Diversity & Inclusion

Diversity and Inclusion has grown in recent years and is worth far more to businesses that understand it well. Long gone are the days where companies thinking that a simple annual survey ticked this box and therefore the job was done. Respecting the unique needs, perspectives and potential of all team members will result in a workforce that trusts the employer and subsequently, their commitment strengthens. This puts the organisation ahead of its competitors, it benefits from lower absence & attrition and attracts the right people, who more than ever before, are putting a real value on companies that recognise it. Our favourite saying is 'I'm not different from you, I'm different like you' because we are all different and this is a really good thing. We all have different personalities and we respond to different stimulus. What motivates one person doesn't necessarily motivate another. Similarly, how one person feels recognised is different to another. Compan...
