Bookings Binder (And Recruiting Binder)

[Bren706]

I have heard of many people passing around a binder at their shows. The contents usually including the Host and Guest Specials, a list of theme shows, maybe photos of products you can earn at various FPV levels, and some recruiting stuff like copies of commisions checks, Your life, Your way brochures.

I am interested in creating one myself. Anyone have one already? What do you put in yours? How do you introduce it at your shows?

I use one... it opens with the old closer look pages, some info about the benefits of direct sales, copies of 2 commission checks with the last names of the hosts whited out, a "scrapbook" page from my trip to disney on the incentive trip, hosting info, then product info.

I pass it around at the beginning of the show and say, "Since my hands are going to be in your food, I thought you should know a little bit about me and what I do..." Then I flip through it briefly telling them to be sure to see my lame attempt at scrapbooking and my commission checks and the host benefits page.

Hope that helps! --- COLLEEN in MI

I'm new to this website (yesterday) and decided that with as much info. as I took from the file section, maybe I could offer my two cents worth.

I have used one on and off over the years. Mine includes some full sheet pages to introduce each section as well as "scrapbooked" pages highlighting what some of my actual hosts have received. I cut up a catalog and glued the pictures of products with the breakdown of what the host did and what she received.

I think that I have attached the files that I used. We'll see.

Good luck with putting it together. I also went to the office supply store and purchased clear-view sleeves for each page (to protect them) as well as clear-view pockets for handouts. I put in there the wedding brochures, Host information sheets, Replacement parts order forms, and fundraiser flyers. Not everyone will want them but I like to make them available to everybody. I ask people who have decided to have a party to just take out the host info sheet and fill out the top, to save time at check out.

Hope this helps.

Here is the type of clear view pockets that I purchased and I really like them.
