Which invitations do you use?Do you use the post card invites or do you make your own?
If you make your own, I do this -w/Great Results, you could scan the cover of the Holiday Book onto your invites!
I cut & paste the Guest Special right on there, then every guest knows what this month's special is!

Hi there! I haven't personally tried sending a holiday catalog with my invites, but I have heard of others having success with it. From what I've heard, it can definitely increase sales and bookings because it gives potential customers a chance to see all the products in one place and get excited about the holiday season. As for justifying the extra cost, you could try mentioning in your invite that there will be a special offer or discount for those who bring the catalog with them to the show. That could help offset the cost and also encourage people to actually bring the catalog with them. Good luck!
