Key Takeaways
[:30] About today’s #AskPam episode!
[:43] Pam offers some advice for McKenna Williams who wrote in: “I either struggle with being all-in and super excited or just super unplugged. I’m still doing all the things but I just don’t feel excited anymore. I need to somehow find a happy medium where I can still have a life with my family outside of the business but still be mass-enrolling and a good leader for my team.”
[4:30] Pam gives some advice to listener Jennifer who asks: “How do I get people interested in what I’m doing during a pandemic?”
[6:59] Pam answers a question from listener Jackie who is unsure of how to push through ‘having the fear’ and not feeling motivated some days.
[9:50] Kelsey asks, “I seem to only enroll people who are not interested in working this business whereas others always seem to get those who are interested. What are they doing that I’m not? Is it the luck of the draw?”

[21:31] Pam offers some invaluable advice for a listener who wrote in: “One of my biggest challenges is messaging, DT retention, finding runners, and completing the steps to success.

[27:51] Pam answers her final question of the podcast from listener Kimberly, who asks: “My biggest challenge is keeping people as dedicated as I am. How can I know when I should let someone and go to move forward and build?”
