Does anyone have a Wish List they include in the host packets you could share with me please? Thank you!!!! :D

I got a call from one of my hosts. It seems I forgot to include the OOF's and the host & guest specials in her packet. She seemed pretty disappointed that I forgot to get her those specials. :( I don't know what happened that I forgot to include them. I feel pretty stupid right now...

Okay, I just mailed out 3 host packets. It was right at $15. I'd prefer not to have that expense again. I know I should give the packets at the shows but what about people who aren't sure about the date or dates that are more than a month out? Is it rude of me to ask them if they could meet me...

Okay, made something else. Most of the gift set flyers were older so I updated them, combined them, and then had to make a brochure to fit them all. I hope it looks okay. And BTW, I can't change it into Word, but I hope someone else can so you can all use it too!!

I had an April host cancel and reschedule for a June show. I had already sent her a host packet with all the host/guest specials, catalog, as well as invites.

What do you have in your host/ess packets? I have been reading recent post and feel like I might be over doing it. I do a folder. One the front of the folder I have a 'does the apron fit' flyer. In the first pocket I put the address and unable to attend labels, the host check list (the thing...

Hi everyone! I have a host who booked a show april 21st. Should I give her the host packet now or wait until closer in? Same about ones who book in May. I'm assuming giving it about 3 weeks before the party. What do y'all do? Thanks! God bless, Amanda

I hope this is where this goes - I am signing my contract in 2 days!! YAY!! 2 of my hosts were asking what comes in the host packet. I know they get invites, info on the specials, outside orderforms - but I thought I would ask before I tell them :-) If someone could assist me I would...

Hi - does anyone have an updated flyer that they put into host packets trying to recruit host - like "host only sale" or "host only apron sale" "host kit credit" etc. The ones that I have found are old and outdated. Thanks, Debbie

For those that won't give a host packet until they receive a guest list.... can you please post the letter that you use when you send the guest list? I lost too many host packets last year and would like to not send the host packet until I get the guest list. TIA! :chef:
