New Consultant Kits: Do You Need to Place a Supply Order?

In summary, the conversation discusses the need for extra supplies for new consultants, specifically catalogs and invitations. Some consultants recommend purchasing a booster kit for additional supplies at a cheaper rate. The booster kit typically includes catalogs, order forms, and other paperwork. It is highly recommended for new consultants to purchase the booster kit for their business.

I've seen on here a few times people wondering if they would get their PC debit card # in time to place a supply order before their first shows. I am wondering why. I was under the impression that all the new consultants needed for 6 shows is in the new kit. I know that I did not need to place an order for quite a while when I first started.
IS this different with the new kit?
 
I know for me, I received my kit at the end of Jan, and it had 25 catalogs for F/W, and the rest were for S/S. 25 catalogs is not going to last when you are handing them out for catalog shows too. I had to beg, borrow, and get extra items from everyone (including this site) to get thru February. I also received 6 packets of invitations, but those were gone as soon as I gave my hosts that I had already lined up their packets. So long story short, I was in need of everything, and I haven't even done my first cooking show yet (this sat)! I guess that the HO does not want to overwhelm new people with too much at once, but newbies still need a little extra........

I my kit feb 1st and I had the same about 25 f/w and 25 s/s. I got more cattys from my recruiter so I didnt have enough cattys for the feb shows w/o asking for all of them back, but I ordered the booster kit as soon as my kit arrived which helped a lot I had to mail that in. anyone who is starting out I would def. get the booster as soon as they got there kits.

I've ordered my booster as well. It came with the s/s catalogs which is great but like you, I still needed more f/w.

You can buy extra paperwork supplies at a MUCH cheaper rate. :) I got about 6 packets of invites, catalogs, order forms, etc

There will be an order form for the booster kit in your kit. It's well worth the $36.
 
Yes! For just another $36 you get a bunch more supplies for your business. Way worth it!

The catty's, NCR order forms and black PC 3-ring binder is TOTALLY worth the $36.00 - consider the reamining items in your Booster Kit FREEBIES!!! Well worth the extra expense!!;)
