I LOVE all of my training material (I have over 30 of them!).
I would start with a CD from one of each category -- Win/Win Host Coaching is probably my favorite for Host Coaching, Booking from the Pros is good for booking, Fill Your Calendar Year Round, Recruiting 101 is a good one for Recruiting, and make sure you get the Connections book with the CD (I have signed 9 consultants since April -- it's good!).
Which ones you pick are up to you, they are all good. I keep them all in my car and listen to them when I am driving, changed them to mp3s and loaded them on my mp3 player to listen to while I am on the treadmill, too.
