Catalogs/Supplies Needed

[Melissa78]

Can anyone advise on what they would do:
I need to order supplies as I've just about depleted everything I have. My question is catalogs...I'm going to purchase the 1/2price kit for new consultants which gives me 50 catalogs. I want to get to 12 shows in July and 12 in August. How many catalogs would any of you order? Just the 50 in th kit or additional? If additional, would you buy just packs of 25 or go for the 100 bang for your buck deal.

Really don't know what do in order to get thru to September.

Also, do you think that the 100 3ply and 100 P3 order forms are enough? (I have never used the p3 ones yet).

Thank you for any insight!

(and can I just add...OMG do supplies add up fast. Thank goodness for those PCD I earned in my first 30d!)

The biggest question I have is how confident you are in getting 12 bookings each month. You would hate to order so many catalogs and then not use them. I would maybe go with the 50 that comes in the new consultant thing and see what happens from there. There maybe somebody in your cluster who may have some catalogs to get rid of towards the end of the season if you need more.

As for receipts, I would order both. I use both, the 3 ply at my shows and the P3 ones for outside orders. You can use them for next season also.

I agree with Wadesgirl - especially if you have your cluster nearby. It's always easier to buy a small amount off of them then to have way too many at the end of the season. Receipts - you can always have extras and use them the next season (if S&H goes up - you can always write it in) Good luck with getting your 12 shows each month!

Thanks ladies! I have 6 cooking and 2 catalog shows already scheduled for July so I'm only 4 away from my July goal. I shouldn't need as many after mid september when I plan to relax a bit as the PCD incentives for me will have run out by then.

Gina - I see in your signature you got a recruit - CONGRATS! :D

I don't know if your recruiter/director told you or not but we do get new catalogs Sept 1st. So you don't want to have too many extra from the next 7 weeks.
