I've always passed the catalog/order forms out after intros and right before my demo - one reason is so that they can mark everything they want on the order form as a "wish list" and then choose (this hardly ever happens though - marking a wish list). Well, yesterday at my sister-in-law's show I FORGOT to pass them out and did not get them passed out until AFTER the demo. I came home with an awesome show total!! I don't know if that was part of it or what.... so now I'm wondering if I should always wait. I have another show Wed and going to NOT pass them out until the end and just see if there is a difference. My mom was at yesterday's show and said that everyone just hung on every word and seemed really interested in what I was doing/saying and I said "that's because I forgot to pass out the catalogs" well, that's when it hit me, maybe I shouldn't. When they have the catalog they are talking to their neighbor and comparing what each other has, etc. This way they paid attention to the demo...... So, my question is:
When do you pass out your catalogs and do you think that it makes a difference?
