DIRECT SALES

o Create an internal recruitment team (TL: Recruitment Cell).

o Define the target and make the members of the recruitment cellresponsible for approaching the overall membership of the LC. Eachmember of the team must be responsible of specific members of the LC toapproach and sale the Global Citizen Program.

o Set an individual goal of Ra for this internal recruitment team.

o Create internal competitions and link it to R&R!

Overcoming Barriers

I can’t leave my functional area now! I´m Team Leader or key member!

o If you are Team Leader search for a member to be the final responsible for the team while you are on exchange. The performance won’t drop as long as you make a good “transition” with your member and keep making the track of your team results while exchange!

o Take advantage of technology and use online collaboration tools like Microsoft Sharepoint, Wiziq, Skype, Webex, etc.

o Financial incentives for internal pipeline that will go on X in June/July (e.g. discounts / offer health insurance)

Promotion Actions

Check all the promotion materials at the link:http://www.myaiesec.net/content/viewfile.do?opern=next&contentid=10174689

At the guideline you can find the facebook banner and app, official video, etc

Overcoming Barriers

People just want to go on X in the end of the yearo The first step to align it with the external audience is during the

promotion. Review all your promotion materials and ensure that they are reinforcing the “vacation opportunity for June and July”. Also reinforce it during the lectures and speeches.

o Ensure that at the application form the months for realization are only as June, July and August

o Choose target courses and negotiate with courses coordinators and professors about the exams dates (so the EP can go on exchange in middle of June) and absences (maybe the EP can do a project when come back of the X to accredit the absences)

o Sell “Multiply your impact!” product

o Financial incentives for people that will go on X in June/July (e.g. discounts / offer health insurance)

Overcoming Barriers

People don’t want to go to Eastern Europe and Africa because of the price

o Discount policies linked with matches for these regions

o Focus on private universities (usually these students have a better financial condition)

o Promote cases about these countries reinforce the strong cultural learning

o Usually the match with these countries are faster (if the EP needs to go on X asap, these are the best destinations for fast match)

Overcoming Barriers

I don’t find the Latin America TNs at the system

o Just talk with the cooperation managers and ceeders. Countries as Mexico, Bolivia and Colombia has already raised TNs for the cooperation. Southern Cone is selling a specific project to receive only Brazilians!

MANAGING THE SALES

Managing “the sales”

• The OGX members should act as sales members for students, so they should be managed like this as well individual sales goals!

• Share the total program goals (applications, selected EPs, raised and matched EPs) between all the area members

• The team leader should track it daily-weekly

• Use the individuals goals achievement to do periodical R&R at the area it can stimulate a increase at the area performance!
