Thirty-One Gifts: Gifted and Talented - Direct Selling News

Thirty-One Gifts

Thirty-One Gifts is turning heads for their ability to rack up incredible growth numbers, while maintaining a close-knit family feel.

Maybe today would be the day. Jeanie had gotten off work just a little bit earlier, in the hope that the adorable little boutique downtown would still be open, even for a few minutes—that’s all it would take to make her desired purchase. Weeks earlier, she had spotted a cute trinket that would make the perfect gift for her friend, Susan. Now, as she rounded the corner, she held her breath in anticipation, and then nearing the storefront, promptly exhaled a long sigh. With shoulders slumped and more than a little dejected, she made her way slowly back to her parked car. Like her last three attempts to peruse the shelves of the delectable retail store, today would, in fact, not be the day.

It is for working women like Jeanie that Thirty-One Gifts was created seven years ago. Founder and CEO Cindy Monroe was working in corporate America at the time, and she, herself, had experienced the frustration of never getting to visit the corner gift boutiques, because they were always closed before she got home from work. “The goal right from the start was to provide products that were gift-able, ones that previously were only available at exclusive retail shops,” says Scott Monroe, Thirty-One Gifts Chief Branding Officer and Cindy’s proud husband. “As her idea came together, she remembered the success she had with direct selling in college and knew that was the only way to go.” Now, in less than a decade, the young company continues to rack up the accolades, and an entire industry has begun to take notice.

The Culture Club

Ask anyone at Thirty-One Gifts, and a good majority will, no doubt, point to the company’s culture as the No. 1 reason for their involvement—the organization’s driving force, if you will.

“People often ask us if we are a Christian company,” Scott says. “And the answer is that we are a company that was founded by Christian people and run by Christian principles, and our business, therefore, is really an extension of who we are.”

Before joining the Thirty-One Gifts team in early 2007, Scott was a pastor. While it was a big decision to make the career switch, it definitely seemed like the perfect time to do so. Trained as a jazz musician, Scott had become “the music guy” for a few modern churches over the years, and in that role he usually took on the responsibility of marketing for the congregation. From the beginning he supported his wife in her new venture and only wished he could do more to help the business develop and grow. Four years after its inception, Thirty-One Gifts was ready to expand its marketing division, and Scott got the opportunity he was looking for to put his talents to work.

Even at the most basic level, faith plays a major role in the makeup of Thirty-One Gifts. “The name Thirty-One comes from Proverbs 31, which describes the characteristics of a good woman,” Scott says. “She is virtuous and business-minded, always taking care of her family. And our goal in everything we do is to celebrate women, help them achieve their goals and enable them to give great gifts to others at the same time.”

Their mission, indeed, is to celebrate, encourage and reward the consultants in the field, which adds another interesting layer to the culture of Thirty-One Gifts. “We are all about making a positive impact on people’s lives—bettering the human condition—one person at a time,” Scott says. “We have some consultants who were stay-at-home moms, who never saw themselves joining the workforce. But through Thirty-One Gifts, these women have been able to have a career where they can contribute to their family income, and in some cases, even help their family survive and thrive in these tough economic times—all without sacrificing time with their family to do so.”

Thirty-One Gifts

Business Prowess

It is an elite group that can boast the same level of phenomenal success that Thirty-One Gifts has experienced. However, very few have done so in such a short amount of time. “For the first three years or so, we saw between 300 and 400 percent growth,” Scott says. “And we only had about five or six employees that whole time. Every year since then, we have consistently seen between 200 and 500 percent growth.”

The products, including handbags, totes, children’s items, stationery and home décor, are not really consumables in the traditional sense—Scott says they are somewhere in between. Thirty-One Gifts has secured a great amount of repeat business from customers. “We work hard to keep up with the trends, and to provide our customers with what they tell us they want,” Scott says. “Because of the nature of our gifts, between 60 and 80 percent of our product line is new for every fashion season. We may keep the same body style for several years, but the prints will always be changing, and since we insist on keeping our prices reasonable, our customers can afford to keep coming back.”

The business has mushroomed solely on a grassroots basis, partly because of the word-of-mouth aspect of direct sales and partly by design of the company’s astute leaders. “We have been growing fast all along, but we wanted to make sure our growth didn’t outpace our ability to keep up with the business,” Scott says. “We knew we had a lot to learn about running a successful company, and we wanted to control our growth to ensure we were making the right choices along the way.”

Now they are positioned and ready for that future growth—and, it seems, the future is now. Earlier this year, Thirty-One Gifts moved into a 97,000-square-foot facility, one that houses 450 employees. In 2008, they made the decision to move from the Monroes’ home state of Tennessee to Ohio, largely because of the incredible distribution channels in place to help facilitate business. Additionally, Ohio’s strategic location places it within 500 miles of much of the U.S. population, so for the Thirty-One Gifts leadership team, the move was a no-brainer. Interestingly, even in spite of moving two states away, the company’s first five employees are still with them and going strong.

“We have been fortunate enough to not see the negative impact of the faltering economy,” Scott says. “Instead, we have seen an increase in business and our consultants’ average is well above the industry standard of $350 per party.”

Looking back, Scott admits his family and their burgeoning business have both come a long way from their humble beginnings at the Monroe home just seven short years ago. “We literally started this company in our own basement,,” Scott says. “We borrowed a small amount of money from family to get started. And at the time, Cindy and a handful of people did all the hard work, recruiting consultants and hosting parties themselves, to get the business off the ground.” Today, Thirty-One Gifts is a completely debt-free company, and proud of the fact that their growth has not been supported by advertising dollars—it’s been organic every step of the way.

Feels Like a Family

If the culture of Thirty-One Gifts is the driving force behind the company’s raging success, then relationships are the fuel that keeps it going. “We have gathered a group of people here who believe strongly in the mission of the company,” Scott says. “They have embraced what we stand for, and you could easily call this a family business.” Beyond the husband and wife team that lead the way, there are a number of couples who work side by side in Thirty-One Gifts.

Scott credits his wife, in large part, for nurturing the relationships that have been the backbone of the company. “Cindy is extremely real and transparent in everything she does. And everyone around her can clearly see that,” Scott says. “She handles the many coaching calls personally, and at our annual conference, with more than 1,500 people in attendance, she is out there on the floor, going from table to table, visiting and talking with the consultants on a one-on-one basis.”

It can be said that even the Thirty-One Gifts product line adds to the company’s close-knit atmosphere, because each gift has a personal touch that makes it special. “Most of our products are monogrammed or personalized for the individual,” Scott says. “It is an element that sets our gifts - and us as a company - apart from others and makes us truly unique.”

Though personal connection is admittedly a tough thing to measure, 33,000 fans on Facebook is pretty impressive. “When we coach our consultants during training sessions, a big push for us is to never just sell a product. That is not why we are here,” Scott says. “Instead, we stress the importance of building relationships with people, whether it is with customers or prospective team members—it makes a more lasting impact. And it is a very teachable skill. When you emphasize relationships with people, the sales will come, but you will have something much more valuable as well.”

It’s not just lip service, either. From the top down, Thirty-One Gifts actually puts their beliefs to the test, even when it involves close friends and colleagues. “Julie Sutton was Cindy’s original business partner, and she decided not long ago to decrease her role with us,” Scott says. “Part of our mission is to give moms more time with their family. So while it was hard to lose Julie on an everyday basis, we absolutely support her decision to put her family first. It’s not just a fancy slogan to us. We are serious about our mission to celebrate, encourage and reward women in whatever they feel called to do.”

Direct Sales Business.com Feature Story on Beth Graves from Thirty-One Gifts

http://directsalesbusiness.com/index.php/2010/09/spotlight-on-beth-graves-thirty-one-gifts/

How long have you been in this business?

I have been in Direct Sales for over 18 years

What do you love about this business?

I love working with people directly. As a Leader, I have always enjoyed making an impact on other people’s lives. Helping people to reach their goals and simply helping to hold them accountable to their own dreams! Sometimes being a Leader in Direct sales is simply about reminding someone what they ARE capable of achieving! I have the ability to impact so many people in so many positive ways and that is the true reward of this business.

What is your number one Tip for others who wish to start a Direct Sales Business?

Take it SERIOUSLY! Treat it like a JOB, not a hobby! If you work your business part-time, you will only earn a part time pay! If you work your business full time, you’ll earn a full time pay!!!!

If you knew “then” what you know now?

When you get started in Direct Sales, it is sometimes hard to imagine the true possibilities of this business. Its hard to see the big picture until you start building your business and seeing the results. Even though I have had a successful career in Direct Sales, I still wish I would have done even more than I did, realizing now how much MORE I could have accomplished!

Your favorite business tool?

The INTERNET!!!! Ok, I know, that’s not a specific tool, but when I started my career in Direct Sales, we didn’t do ANYTHING ONLINE! I had to write up my shows by hand and Fed Ex them to the home office! I remember running to Fed Ex to send in my last show I needed to qualify for my very first trip to Hawaii! Now, everything we do is online and it is amazing at how much easier it is to build and work your business!

Your favorite business book?

Dr. Seuss – “Oh, The Places You’ll Go!” Seriously, this book has always been a huge inspiration to me!!! If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend it!

Your favorite social networking site?

Facebook is probably my favorite, although I do also utilize my own Blog, as well.

How can people reach you?

Anything else you want to share?

Thirty-One Gifts is truly a company that lifts women up, inspires them and empowers them to achieve all they can.

Stop Sabatoging Your Success!!!

Stop Sabotaging Your Success

Get past the self-doubt and stop blaming others if you want to reach your goals.

URL: http://www.womenentrepreneur.com/2010/08/stop-sabotaging-your-success.html

Take a moment to consider this powerful quote by Marcus Aurelius Antonius: "The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts." Not only do I find it to be true, I believe it is the foundational driver of whether you're successful or not.

As a business coach, I see many clients suffering from self-sabotage, yet they are oblivious to it. It's sneaky and comes in many forms, but for the purposes of this article we're going to focus on two of the most common ways people get in the way of their success and happiness. They are:

  1. Not taking responsibility for their actions
  2. Choosing to be in the "victim" role--both personally and professionally

Many people are more comfortable in the "victim role" because they can blame everyone else for whatever is not working in their lives or business. And although placing blame on others for your own issues can be quite seductive (it gets you off the hook as far as doing any introspection), it can be more exhausting than simply being honest with yourself. Most important, the victim mentality can make it virtually impossible to realize significant progress . . . yet totally possible to experience consistent breakdowns in making progress within any aspect of your life.

And, no, I'm not referring to major emotional breakdowns requiring medication or hospitalization. I mean those consistent obstacles that get thrown at us all the time in business and life, and that cause us moments of overwhelming paralysis--typically due to self-doubt.

To effectively break through a personal, professional or emotional obstacle, the driving force behind it is taking responsibility for your actions and trusting yourself. Let's look at both of those drivers more closely:

Responsibility: You gain significant empowerment and freedom when you choose to shift your perspective from assigning blame to accepting responsibility. And although you may feel in control when assigning blame to others for challenges you face, the reality is that you are totally out of control. Why? You have given your power to someone else. And even though it may feel like a "relief" initially, it can manifest into more stress later.

You simply cannot resolve personal issues, and have breakthroughs, when the power is not your own. At the point of assigning blame and releasing all responsibility for challenges in your life, not only have you given all the power to others, your "destiny" becomes based on their next move and decisions--not yours.

Being able to shift your perspective to being someone who takes responsibility starts with self-trust.

Self-Trust: Self-trust is the foundation of our being. Lack of self-trust leads to self-doubt. Doubting yourself is a powerful force that can set you up for failure in anything you attempt. Why? Because you already assume that the decisions you make and actions you take probably aren't the right ones, and that they won't provide you with the results you desire.

Think of this in terms of two real-world scenarios:

  • Scenario One: You want to make a career change because you're bored or very unhappy with your current occupation or business. If you lack self-trust, making a change could be clouded by self-defeating "doubt" questions like: Am I smart enough to do this? Can I afford to do this? What will my friends, family and peers think? What if they judge me for making this career change?

    With those types of questions running through your brain, you can actually talk yourself out of making the career change before you even try. The result is being stuck in a career or running a business you no longer enjoy and wishing you were doing something else--yet never trying to make the change happen.
  • Scenario Two: You don't have enough business and you're struggling. But have you really done the work to get more business, or do find yourself blaming the economy, the competition or other outside forces?

I hear clients complain often about lack of business. And when they tell me what their business development strategies have been prior to hiring me, I don't doubt they've been struggling. Posting a couple of blog posts, sending a few tweets here and there, creating a website, and occasionally going to networking events isn't enough. Yet they truly believe the "problem" is all about the economy or other circumstances, and all they want to do is vent about it vs. take action.

However, after we have some honest dialogue together, a perspective shift occurs. They soon realize they need to take responsibility for their lives and business, and they need to stop blaming others for their lack of success and happiness. They have to come up with an overall business development strategy. It can't be the occasional blog post or the odd networking event. Business development has to be planned and managed.

If you can relate to any of this, I suggest you take some time to ask yourself:

  1. Are there situations in my life where I choose to assign blame vs. take responsibility?
  2. How does assigning blame serve me when I'm trying to break through an obstacle?
  3. How can I build self-trust to foster consistent, positive breakthroughs?
  4. When I feel paralyzed by self-doubt, what can I do to create a breakthrough vs. a breakdown in making progress?

Your personal success and business success depend on you. You can have the best brand platform in the world, a terrific marketing strategy, have written an amazing book, or offer an amazing product or services, but none of these will get you where you want to go if the demons in your head constantly try to sell you garbage . . . and you willingly buy it.
