Sharing Your Story

Did you realize that first impressions count?  Did you know that we only have a few seconds to make a lasting impression? That's true of us, and it's true of Juice Plus+ ... so what we say first to someone about Juice Plus+ really matters.

How often have you responded to the question: "What is Juice Plus+?" with something like: "Well, it's 17 fruits and vegetables in a capsule". Not very exciting, it'll hardly grab their attention and make them want to know more!

How often have we been equally unconvincing when answering the other common question: "What do you do?"  We usually say something like: "I represent a company that found a way to put 17 fruits and vegetables into a capsule ... it's called Juice Plus+ have you heard of it?"

For years we've done this. We've actually trained everyone to be pretty boring: "Watch the person's face, you'll see one of 3 reactions - the blank look, the skeptical frown or wide-eyed excitement."

While that is true about the reaction, we now realize (thanks to Rachel Harries, NMD, in Dallas, TX) that our response is boring and we're missing a great opportunity.

We should be responding by sharing our story! Answering their question will be part of the story.

Our primary goal, every day, is to share our story as often as possible.

But that's only true if we share our story in 30-45 seconds ... and then wait for the reaction (there are only 3 - see above).

We now realize that if we tell our story well, we'll have a lot more of the 'wide-eyed excitement' or at least the 'skeptical frown' reaction - both are equally good; just beware the 'blank look' (they probably have zero interest!)

So your story is the best answer to both questions - but it needs to be great. And it will be great if you've taken the trouble to write it down, refine it, shorten it and make sure it covers the head and the heart reasons why we love Juice Plus+. See 'Sharing Your Story' in the Owner's Manual, 4.1; you will learn there the importance of both your Product Story and your Business Story.

We suggest you sit down with someone (eg. your sponsor) and tell them the long version of your story. They take notes and then you both work on bringing out the most important points in the right order, with the right emphasis ... all in your own words, with tremendous enthusiasm.

Armed with your story(s), share them every day, at every opportunity, with everyone you meet, and you will be successful. Ask your friends and family if you can practice on them! Continue to refine your story as you go. Remember - keep it short.

We'd love to see the results of your efforts, so email us your story when it's finished. If you want our feedback, please ask!

One last thought - it doesn't have to sound 'impressive'. We love what Jane Dias's young son tells his friends and their parents about what his Mom does: "She helps people get healthy with fruits and veggies!"

Mick's stories are below. Good writing and good sharing!

Mick's Product Story

Short version: "Juice Plus+ changed my life and I'm compelled to tell people how!" (...tell me more.)

Long version: "I started taking Juice Plus+ in 1993 hoping it would help with my marathon running. It certainly did! It just made sense: I needed more fruits and vegetables in my diet - especially those greens (I hated spinach!)

After 3-4 months I noticed improved energy, stamina, and recovery time. Then I had incredible results in 2 marathons that I ran 6 weeks apart - and I KNEW it was Juice Plus+!

Now I take the Juice Plus+ Vineyard Blend daily as well, have one meal based on the Juice Plus+ Complete almost every day, and use the Juice Plus+ Thins as a training and race supplement.

Over the years my life-long problems with allergies, colds, chest infections and asthma have improved a lot. Most of my life I was on antibiotics 3-4 times a year and I've needed them only 3-4 times in 15 years! Juice Plus+ has given me a new immune system!

My taste buds have changed - now I love spinach and other greens, and I'm no longer addicted to chocolate, ice cream and steaks! I love the JP+ Gummies for an after dinner sweet snack.

My family and I will always take Juice Plus+, and now there's so much published research on Juice Plus+ we have even more reason to take it, and to tell other people about it."

Mick's Business Story

"After 23 years with IBM, the Juice Plus+ business really appealed to me. Helping people with their health is a lot more rewarding than dealing with computer problems all day long.

As Juice Plus+ began to dramatically improve my own health and fitness, I just had to tell people about it, and soon it became a serious business for me and my wife, allowing me to escape from the corporate world forever.

We've been full-time with this business for over 16 years, working from home, and over the years we've built an international business that has given us the time to travel, and the money to enjoy our freedom. This includes spending a year building our dream log home with our two sons in the Colorado Rockies, and also putting in a lot of volunteer time at our church.

Over the years our Juice Plus+ business has grown beyond our wildest dreams, and there's no stopping it now!"
