Hey everyone! I just got my flipchart in the mail today and I really don't know what to put in it except for the monthly host/guest specials and a recruiting flyer. What is everyone else putting in theirs? I am still in my super starter month one with my first kitchen show this friday! I'm so nervous on what I'm going to say! I'm going to make the chicken/broccoli ring tomorrow night and give a demo to my husband and kids! Any tips for me for my show and the flipcharts?
Thank You all kindly, :)
Kristi
 
:) My director also puts in a Pampered Bride flyer. Maybe even the next coming months host and guest specials. Could help someone book a show that month.
 
FlyersThe "Put the Fun back in Fundraising flyer" and my theme shows flyers (although I have a binder and not the flipchart). And the Pampered Bride flyer, as already stated.

Good luck on your show :-)
 
I have any recruiting specials in the front with my paycheck from the last few months behind that. I also have the opportunity fliers opened up so they can see at a glance (both of them). Then I have the months host and guest specials. In the back I have any theme shows I doing plus the bridal flier. I LOVE MY FLIPCHART...It can stand up and helps me remember to cover everything.
 
flip chart contentI got extra pages and have the following in mine: Pampered Bride flyer, fun in Fundraising flyer, recruiting flyer that I made, host a kitchen show flyer in both English & Spanish, SS flyer from the company, current recruiting promotion, theme show suggestions (several ideas on one sheet - Mexican Fiesta, Chocolate Lovers, BINGO, Beach Party and "use your imagination" - this TASTE of themes creates questions and interest - I give no details about the parties so they ASK ;) ), host & guest special flyers from ALL upcoming months (currently April - August). I only flip that far if the potential host insists that she just can't do it in April or May - I find that guests usually stop at the theme page when they're flipping.... I'm also thinking of adding a paycheck or two... I love it and think it works better than the binder did because it's already open and takes less space on the table.

Thank you:) Thank you all for your help! This website is so informative! I looked for the "Put the fun back in fundraising" flyer but haven't been able to find it! Does anyone know where that would be? I also don't really understand how the fundraising works? I've been reading postings on here but I guess the fundraising progaram has changed?
I unfortunately don't have any paychecks yet (I turned my first show in on April 1st) but that would be a great idea! I did put the flyer "How much are you paying" flyer and it seems to have a pretty good reaction. I took it to a local arts fest and I got a couple bookings from it!!! Thank you to all of again!
Kristi :p
 
gift certificateI put a copy of the gift certificate sample that came in my PC binder aslo(the one you get when you start PC). It says on the front it is a sample and not a valid gift certificate. I don't have the flip chart yet but I definately want to get one in the near future.

Hey KristiKristi,
I would like the flyer "what are you paying" - I've not heard of that. You can send it by email if you'd like: [email protected]

TIA!!

Also, you can find the fundraising flyer under dowloads on Consultants Corner - the fifth option down. Hope that helps!

FlyerHello! I hope this helps! I got this from someone and just revised with the new host rewards and my tax rate! I call people who constantly buy from me without hosting their own show Full Price Fran so hopefully if I pressure enought, they'll book a show! It really is a great flyer!
Kristi :p
