Mannatech Give for Real Videos

Scripting inspired by Presidentials Deb Jones and JoEllen Hooper

The following is an example of effective language to use in your presentation to talk about social entrepreneurship.

When people ask me what I do: “We are a group of social entrepreneurs who have taken on the challenge of eliminating malnutrition in children.  We have partnered with a company that has the science, the patents, and the technology to provide a high quality food solution. Together with service providers around the world, we are delivering on that promise!

Have you heard of Tom’s shoes? You buy a pair and they give a pair to someone in need?  We’re using that same method of having a business model fund the solution.

When you purchase a month’s supply of our plant-based product, we nourish a child for a month. You do something good for your wellness, while doing good for others.  There’s also an opportunity where you can build a significant income. Want to help?”

Scheduling the appointment:
“Hi ____. This is _____.  How’s it going?  (FORM–Ask them about their family, occupation, recreation, and then comes your message:)  I would love to sit down with you to talk about a project we’re working on and show you how we are helping children with their nutritional needs. Do you have half an hour that we can get together to visit? What does your schedule look like this week? What day works best for you? Would Tuesday or Wednesday be better?” (Get the appointment.)

At the appointment:
“As you were coming here to meet me today, what did you think this meeting was going to be about? What were you hoping this meeting was going to be all about?” (Listen)

If they say, I figured this was about products (or making money, etc)…Say: “This is a whole lot bigger than that.” If they say, I hope this isn’t about selling… “I think you’re going to love what I share with you. This is about giving, about paying it forward, about championing the cause of helping malnourished children while helping yourself.

Let me share with you what I do. Are you aware of how many companies donate part of their profits to important causes, like donating to Haitian Relief or the Japanese Tsunami victims? This is called cause-driven or cause marketing. The company I work with is not cause-driven but is instead a social entrepreneurial organization. In the other words, Mannatech has identified a social problem that has not been solved–global malnutrition–and has come up with a solution to actually solve the problem through a business model that funds it instead of just asking for donations.

“What I’m looking for is…

• People who want to make a difference
• People who want to impact their community by enriching lives
• People who want to be healthy and stay healthy
• People who want to be business partners, who are coachable, and who want to champion the cause of malnourished children while building a significant income for themselves
• And everything in between.

Now, I’d like to do is share with you 2 short videos about the problem of what really is going on around the world and the nutritional solution.”

“Now, let’s watch “The Solution” video. It’s not only for malnourished children but solutions for undernourished children and families right here in our country.”

What did you like about what you just saw?
What really stands out to you?

Sample the PhytoBurst “The children are getting this same technology except it is in powder form, but I want you to sample it in a chewable form.” (They get the idea of real food.)

“Doctors are Endorsing these Integrative Health Strategies too. For example, have you heard of Dr. Ben Carson? He’s a world-renown neurosurgeon that will tell you that food is not enough and Mannatech is a great solution.  Have you heard of Scripps Institute?  They are known for being at the forefront of medical innovation, clinical research and technology. Their director Dr. Mimi Guarneri says that Mannatech will transform healthcare.”

The ISKA (International Sports Karate Association) has never endorsed a product or a company. For the first time in its 25-year history, ISKA has chosen Mannatech as its official dietary supplement company to recommend to its elite athletes. ISKA is in 61 countries and 28,000 studios here in North America. Why would they put their ISKA seal on our bottles? Mannatech has the science, validation, efficacy, safety and no banned substances. ISKA found the perfect company to align itself with. That lets you know there is something very unique about the products and technologies that we have.”

I mentioned earlier that what I’m looking for is people who want to impact their community and who want to be healthy and stay healthy.  Would you like to know how you can make an impact?  Great.  If helping malnourished children is a vision that you can believe in, I’d like to show you 3 options of how you can get involved. 

Option 1 is to support 1 child. When you purchase products on auto order you help your health and Mannatech sends a month supply to a child in need. Option 2 is to invite others to this vision.  You’ll receive a $100 check from Mannatech each month when you and those 6 people have ordered and you’ll be helping 7 children too. With each person you refer beyond that, your giving grows in direct proportion. Option 3 is to become a social entrepreneur as Team Builder. This is a person who enjoys the product as a consumer and would like to create some significant income by working either part-time or full-time. This person helps the world and helps themselves. This is an effective way to fund wellness for your family and for children in need with a business model that sustains the giving.”

“Do you see any part of this being a fit for you?
Tell me more.” (Listen)

Read the Closing Script page 22 of Dani Johnson’s Script Book.

Before we select your pack, let me show you what I take everyday.  I take one of these convenient packets in the morning and one in the evening. (Show Optimal Health Support packets) It has in it PhytoMatrix – this is the same technology that is in the PhytoBurst Nutritional Chews, PLUS is for endocrine support, and Ambrotose AO is our powerful antioxidant. I also take Ambrotose every day.”
Which route would you like to go? (Show or tell them about the packs)

The top goal is to help them make a list of names and share this with people they know. You want to send them home with something (i.e. Real 4 for Life brochure, The Atlanta Voice) and get back with them within 24-48 hours to get back what you loaned to them and help them with their list of names.

Thank you for helping us provide nutrition and not just food to kids in need. We look forward to hearing about your results and appreciate your referrals so that we can help even more kids.
