Giving Catalogs to Your Host: Questions Answered

[dpcharlotte]

How many catalogs do you give your host? Also, if she changes her mind do you ever ask for the catalogs back? Just curious...

cattysDepends on what the Hosts wants - usually b/w 6-8.

If she decided NOT to do a Show - I would just ask her 'what is easier for you - to mail the cattys back to me, or drop them off at my house?' (if she doesn't live TOO far away). If it is going to bother the Host too much (or if she is going to make a big fuss over getting them back to you) then I might not bother.....

I give a cooking show host 2 and a catalog show host 3. I ask each coaching call if they need more and tell them I can get them as many as they need. I've rarely had a catty host ask for more. I also remind them each call that the entire catalog is online and encourage them to collect orders that way.

Usually I do not ask for them to be returned, but it depends on the circumstances.

averageI think the average is maybe about 5 for a catty show....I just give more because I find a lot of my Hosts have told me that when they have done other Home Parties - the Consultant only gave them 1 catty in advance....

Hi there!As a Pampered Chef consultant, I typically give my host 10-15 catalogs to distribute to her guests. This way, everyone has a chance to browse through and make their wishlists.If my host changes her mind and decides not to have a party, I usually ask for the catalogs back. This is because I want to make sure they are being used effectively and not going to waste. Plus, I can always use them for future parties or events.Hope that helps answer your question. Happy cooking!Best,
