I'm getting a LOT of cancelations lately. It seems it's hosts that book farther out. I'm worried now because I have NO shows for summer, but 4 for the fall already - I don't want to lose those fall shows! What do you all do to keep those hosts excited about their shows when they're so far away?

I have these postcards that I got from another consultant - they were originally for keeping January hosts excited over the holidays - I tweaked them to fit for my late summer hosts - you can tweak them a bit further to keep your fall hosts excited. I print them in brightly colored cardstock and then turn the sheet over and print the backs.

Those are perfect, thank you. Now I just need to drum up some summer bookings!

You're very welcome.
My onlu gripe about them is that they have very winter-ish recipes on them (because they were from wintertime) and I do not know how to put summer recipes on them without completely messing up the format.

I took it upon myself to add the Lime Berry Mousse Trifle to the cards. I love the idea, Carolyn!

These are great! Thanks Carolyn and Ann!

Ann thank you SO much for adding the trifle recipe - it's FABULOUS!!!
If you want to add summer recipes to the other two pages that'd be great!
How'd ya do it?

Awesome flyers. I'm planing on using both! What a great idea on the postcards to keep hosts who book farther out interested! Thanks!
