I just received my inserts for my flip chart, and I want to get it put together for this weekend's shows- What do you put in them? I have the cards for the knives and cookware, but what else?
 
I have those cards, plus the monthly specials for current and upcoming months, and the Round Up flyer that was in the CN in September (I think).

Wedding Registry....Fundraisers.....Do you love a bargain....The recipe for the show:)
 
Now that I think of it, I also have the Super Starter brochure in there.

Put anything in there that you want people to see. Then let them know that they can look through it during the food/socializing time.

Oohh!! Another good one that I have in a different book is a sheet with everything my top host got with her benefits, including the price she paid, the retail price and the difference (how much she saved).
 
How many of you use the flip book and do you think your guests really look through them? I use a binder, but find that most of my guests don't even bother to look at it. Maybe because it lies flat on the table that they forget about it?
 
I use the flipboook at every show! I have to see things to remind people so it works great for me!! LOL!! I have everything mentioned above as well as my first commission statement and my highest comission statement.

HTH~
 
I have all of the things mentioned above, plus ribbons and post cards from my director. At the end of my show, I use it for my closing and just quickly go through it.

I should have ordered more of them- 3 pages is not enough !!!! Do you know if Office Depot sells them? I just checked Wal Mart- none there.
 
I don't think anyone sells the protectors with the holes on the short side. You'll probably have to order them on your next supply order. I laminate the monthly specials and punch holes in the top to go into the binder. Then I can take it out easily and pass it around - and it doesn't take up a protector.

Thanks. <blush>
 
I use the flipboook at every show! I put it on the coffee table for everyone to look through and it helps me with the specials. :)
