Invitation Arlene, I'm not sure what you are looking for....a new consultant or a host who is having a show and she is new to the neighborhood. Let me know. I have a few options that might help out. Ginger
Response Hey all, did you get good response with the neighborhood flyer? That is what I am thinking of doing.
Neighborhood Flier I put out almost 50 neighborhood fliers last Tuesday and have not gotten the first response. I got catalog bags from Nancy's Artworks and put last season's catalog, current months host and guest fliers, recruiting info., and a cute little poem I found on a board about the Amazing Nylon Scraper with a Nylon scraper attached to the bottom. I rolled them, put them in the bags, tied them and threw them in driveways in two subdivisions right near my house. I am still keeping my fingers crossed that I will get some kind of response. If I could get at least 5 calls, I would be happy. I think I will hold off for now in doing some more.
When the weather is inclement I use the generic food storage bags(w/ties) (very cheap) and I put the catalog inside and tape them shut. I put them in everyones paper box. Keep in mind, mass mailers know a response from 1 in a hundred is good. A year ago I did my 50 home subdivision and got 1 response-a party.
Neighborhood Fliers If the mass mailing statistic is 1 to 100 maybe I should do 50 more than to bring the total to 100. What do you think?
Cool That sounds very interesting........I just mailed them out, since the weather here has been crazy, and everyone has been non-stop sick. I mailed about 30 to see what I would get before I mailed more. I think I am going to see if I can have an Open House at my sisters Apartment Complex. Good luck to you guys, if you get a response email me. Courtney
sOhSherri, You mentioned a poem about the Amazing Nylon Scraper. Could you e-mail it to me, please? I have a show coming up where I know a lot of the ladies use stoneware often, and I think they would enjoy the poem. Thank you. Amya aandrick@columbus.rr.com
Sherri, Could you share the Amazing Nylon Scraper Poem here? I'm sure everyone would like to read it.
I would love to share it but I can not get it to attach. Is there someone I could email it to so they can attach it?
Sherri, Try e-mailing it to me and I will see if I can get it to attach. thepamperedkitchen@sbcglobal.net Lisa
Thanks for posting this. I was just looking for a flyer to give out with a catalog for some people that just moved into the neighborhood. This is much better than anything I could come up with!! Nancy
I love all the ideas you guys have. I too just printed those same flyers for my neighborhood with the old catalogs. I attached an open house note with them along with an order form. I really hope this pays off because i am getting nervous about the slow sales months.
