Yes. The same menu where you can choose credit card, check, or cash has a "Consultant Gift" option.
 
Oh now I see it, thanks, I wish I had seen that before I have given lots of gifts and just put the money in. Hope my hubby doesn't find out come tax time.
 
Kris,
Love your flyer, but seems like alot of work. When they do the web order, do you just go in and make the adjustments ( that is what I am assuming?) Duh, just read that...
Has this worked for you in the past? Mind if I use it?
Thanks :)
 
HI Meredith!
Please feel free to use and change whatever you need to! I honestly haven't done this before...so I'm not sure how it will go. I've been telling everyone I talk to about it and I put some info on my website, so hopefully it pans out. If you do it, I would love s some feedback!
 
I "borrowed" a flyer and change it to my preferences.. I pasted it onto my website and I'm going to send out an email today. Directing them to my website.
We'll see what happens and if I get any orders.. I did bigger blocks of time for each and will include a free gift with each order. All are direct shipped too.
