the Basics of a successful fast track
Time: The Fast Track is designed to run during the calendar
month and should be scheduled on the same day, at the
same time each week (always start on time). Consistency is
vital to success .
Who: Include committed Marketing Executives who work
closely with one another in their businesses (e.g. your
personally enrolled customers).
Teams: Teams usually consist of 8–10 members. There is no
limit to the number of teams, as long as you can manage the
group size.
Leaders: As a general guideline, team leaders should be
Director II or above, as they need to have experience at
personally enrolling customers and developing Directors . These
leaders should also be organised, accountable, and willing to put
in extra energy and effort to keep the team focused on goals .
Fees: You may need to charge a fee for participation . This money
helps provide recognition prizes and offsets any other related
costs . These fees should not exceed $30 per business .
Product Experiences: You should start every meeting with a
product experience .
Goals: Goals should be set the first week and revised or
added to each following week .
Action Plans: After participants set goals, they should put an
action plan into place to help reach those goals .
Celebration: Personal accountability and reporting happen
on a weekly basis . The facilitator establishes a recognition
system and rewards everyone’s accomplishments.
Celebration of success is a key part of each weekly meeting .
Participation: Once the last week is concluded, participants
should be encouraged to attend the next Fast Track .
