I will be having a booth at an upcoming Women's Expo and would really like to focus on recruiting. I have a bridal board I use for bridal showers (2 bulletin boards hinged together and decorated) and was wondering if anyone has done this for a recruiting bulletin board that could draw some attention. I'm not very creative....I have to see something and then I can copy it. Thanks for any help!
 
I did something like that when I first promoted and used it at my meetings and at fairs. No one paid attention to it much - they are more interested in the products. Now I bring the new consultant kit and a few key items and when they are looking at the items I tell them about the opportunity and that they come in the kit. Those that are all about products want to know more.

I do have recruiting flyers there and open to different pages - placed here and there on the table and that has spurred some discussion.

New Consultant Kit questionsThanks Beth! It looks like you're knowledgeable on the recruiting subject! I have 2 recruits, but I have 3 people that have told me yes, they just haven't signed yet!! Ugh. I've brought the kit products in the past when I've had the items out on display. Do you actually bring the box too so they know what it's all about. I have a shelving unit that I bring with products on it, so I already bring quite a bit of products.....so I think the new consultant kit may just blend in when I do that. Have you ever had any luck by offering any recruiting promotions of your own at booths? I'd really love to go to Leadership (would be my first conference that I've ever attended) and walk across as a Director!! : > I've wanted to go to National conference but with a 6, 4, and 1 year old (all of which nursed for a year) it seemed like I either had a new baby or a nursing baby so much of the time!! Thanks for your input!
 
I display the kit products as a set. I do not have the box that the new products come in because I joined with a different kit but it would be a good idea to do that! ...hmmm maybe one of my new consultants would be willing to give up her box.

I separate the table in such a way that the kit is on it's own (I have used a crate to set it off) and another part of the table has an entertaining display including a featured stone (deep covered baker).

Thanks again.Thanks for more of the great ideas. I joined with a different kit too. I really like the idea of having the kit out on a different crate. Maybe time for me to finally break down and buy the display crate! I may check with my team too and see if anyone kept their box.
