Boost Your Frequency, Boost Your Business

Dear Booksellers,

Ever have one of those perfect days at work? Your staff is smiling and laughing. Your customers are happy and talkative. Your store is filled with good vibes and great potential. Nothing can go wrong. And do you happen to notice more business on these rare occasions?

Good moods are definitely contagious. Consider how a sunny outlook can infuse your store with positive energy that will infect everyone. So how can you lift a dark atmosphere or a foul mood that could threaten sales? Try raising your spiritual frequency.

I’ve invited Melissa Alvarez, the author of 365 Ways to Raise Your Frequency, to discuss how to boost your personal vibrations at work. Consider trying one of these simple, quick exercises to zap negativity, attract abundance, and maintain your store’s positive energy.



365 Ways to Raise Your Frequency

Raising Frequency on the Job
By Melissa Alvarez

Now that the holiday rush is over and returns have been dealt with, life for retail employees is returning to normal. Having worked in retail management for fifteen years, from big department stores to small specialty shops, I can understand.

This is an excellent time to use frequency-raising exercises in the workplace. Not only can you raise your own personal frequency, but your increased vibration can have a positive effect on your customers and sales.

You can even increase frequency as a group. If every employee in the store works on raising their energy, customers will feel this positive energy when they walk in the door. They’ll love coming to your store and may tell others what good energy it has. Word of mouth advertising is always the best compliment, isn’t it?


Connecting with your Customers

Raising your frequency at work offers a fuller and richer connection to your customers. Try this frequency-raising exercise before you start your shift.

Imagine you are a customer. See yourself walking through the front door and looking around. What do you see? Is there anyone there to greet you? What is everyone doing? Now imagine yourself walking through the aisles and an employee comes over to ask if you need help. What kind of energy do you sense? Is the employee’s frequency high or low? How does he/she make you feel?

By putting yourself in your customer’s shoes, you can alter the way your own frequency radiates. You can purposefully raise it by using creative visualization. Look at your energy and push aside any negativity and fill that space with positively charged, highly vibrating energy. This raises your frequency and will have a positive effect on your customers.


Selling More Merchandise

If you’ve connected to your customers through raising your frequency and creating a positive experience for them, then they may be more willing to purchase additional suggestions you make on other products.

Displays filled with positive energy also sell more merchandise. As you make the display, use creative visualization to imagine your energy vibrating at a higher rate, filling you with positivity. Now let the positive energy of your increased frequency flow into the display. Give it the intention that it will be pleasing to the eye and will draw customers to it. When you are finished, step back and watch customer reactions.


Quick Frequency Raising Exercises

Anytime you feel like your energy is taking a nosedive, you can raise your frequency. Try any of these quick and easy exercises:

Find Messages in Books
Working in a bookstore is a fantastic place to be if your frequency goes on the fritz. Take a moment to center yourself then walk around to you come to a shelf and book you feel drawn to. Open the book to a random page. Quite often you will read a frequency-boosting message.

Pay Attention to Your Breathing
With just a few focused breaths you can relieve stress and increase your frequency. Breathe deeply, inhale, and feel your energy rise. Release negativity as you exhale.

Change the Music
Music can immediately raise everyone’s frequency. Tone and tempo can liven up the energy throughout the store.

Quick Meditation to Alter Your Mood
Take a couple of minutes to clear your mind and connect to your center of balance. Purposefully imagine your energy moving faster, increasing your frequency, and giving you a sense of calm peace and joy.

Exercise/Yoga in the Break Room
On a break? Stretch and loosen up your muscles before returning to the sales floor. The movement will rev up your frequency.
