Get set for success Besides the group you’ve been a valued member in, we’d like you to visit two quality Slimming World groups to make sure that you’ve experienced first-hand the benefits of correct room layout, a wellstructured social team, proper group procedure, an excellent New Member Talk and powerful IMAGE Therapy – all the elements that make Slimming World’s service and support so special and unique. We’d also like you to research what regular or one-off events (eg mum and toddler groups, school fairs, church meetings etc) are happening where you’re opening your group, so that we can use this information at pre-training to plan your local promotion. Action: We’ll select the best Slimming World groups for you to see in your area – all you need to do is go along and be willing to become an honorary member of the social team! Please bring your list of local community events so we can develop a flawless promotional plan.
