Statement Nails

I saw this document on the Consultant page, but it didn't have the form she was referring to, so I made it.  Read this then download my document - it's genius!

The STATEMENT NAIL Principles for Events

By Debbie Bird on Saturday, June 16, 2012 at 5:10pm
There is more to a 'Statement Nail' than just having a different nail on one finger. It is an attitude that is created with simple sales principles that have been created just for Professional Jamberry Consultants.

Imagine this...you are walking into an event, you smile at everyone, you make your set-up look extremely easy then the presentation of the Statement Nail begins. Walk to every single vendor there and their families, their kids, their husbands! and any other vendor volunteers. Give them a simple entry form to fill out for a door prize and let them know you will give them a free Jamberry Statement Nail wrap when they bring the entry form to your table.

One-You have just created traffic at your table because the majority of vendors will fill out the entry form and bring it to your table to register. For every action there is a reaction. People want to be a part of where the activity is. No one wants to feel left out. You are attracting people to your product. You are not selling it to them. You are making it easy for them to approach you and your product.  

Two-The majority of vendors will be wearing a 'Statement Nail' and advertising for YOU to all the customers who walk by their table/booth. Think about the full impact of this. Imagine, you are the customer and are walking thru the event. You see a  make up vendor with a Jamberry wrap on her ring finger. The next  table sells homemade candles and you see a Jamberry wrap on her finger. The next table is jewelry and you see what??? Yep, a Jamberry wrap!!! The 'Statement Nail' is making a statement for YOU!  

Three- The customer compliments the makeup vendor's  nail... then that vendor overhears the same customer complimenting the  candle vendor's nail...The vendor will often have several customers  compliment her nail and ask about it. They look over at the Jamberry  table..and there is someone there again putting on a sample and laughing  and having a good time. The vendor wants what we have. They want the  customers! They want to be the busy booth! They want to be having a good  time!

The number one reason I do events is for recruiting, number two is parties and three is sales.

When the vendor comes up and drops off her entry I have already  picked out a few nails to match her outfit or her product. For the  vendors I pull out my personal stock of leftover shields. I may have to  cut down a larger toe shield for the leopard print the Mary Kay gal is wearing but I want it on her! She wants it on her! ALWAYS have the Statement Nail on the blingiest ring finger! It makes the wrap look better and it will draw more attention.

If I have a few moments I will purpose to take certain designs to  certain vendors. Several of our designs match other direct sales  patterns/colors/themes. When you walk up to the Pink Zebra lady with a pink zebra and simply say, "I saw this Pink Zebra pattern and thought this has you written all over it" she will have to agree. I don't try to sell her. I attract her. I let her know "I have one left in stock. Be sure bring your entry form over so you can have the chance to win it if I haven't sold it". Period. I walk away, after all, I am busy and don't have time except for her! I am busy with my Jamberry tho' she is  special. I want her to feel special. I don't have 3-4 sheets in my hand going to different tables. I will carry that one shield back, put it back out on display with my door prize. When she comes to enter for the door prize I let her know that the door prize is _____ and _____ plus a FREE sheet of nails. SHE SEES HER NAILS there...OMG! she doesn't want someone else winning her nails. I quietly let her know  that all the display sheets are for sale. Most of the time, they buy it!

Attract people to your table. Create the energy. Most of all, don't sit at your table on your phone facebooking or playing games. That is not attractive to possible recruits. They don't want to sign up to sit and play games or text or eat...that is what they are doing now! LOL. Very very very rarely do I ever sit. I am up straightening my table, networking working with other vendors, taking pictures of the statement nails, joking, laughing, attracting attention to my action! No action gets no reaction!


With every statement nail use the words 'easy', 'simple', 'fun'! That attracts recruits! Compliment the statement they are making. Compliment their ring. Get to know them by asking about them. Get them talking about themselves. Let them know you care. Recruits want to be cared about. I want to be cared about. So do you. So care about them. Giving them a Statement Nail is caring!

Hope you continue on your journey of Curing America of "Nakie Nail Syndrome" with one Statement Nail at a time! ~ Debbie Bird, Sr. Director
