Remember to adjust your special to fit how much commission you're going to give up.

Charlene~

Your May Package flyer looks very nice!

Don't forget...just because you make a package, you don't have to discount it!

The lady (Julie Weiss) that does the Party Packages that I have started doesn't discount anything. Even at full price, it encourages those who are unsure of what to get to just get a package. She says her order and show average went up once she used packages.

I am not telling you NOT to discount them. Just think about it. You don't have to give away any of your commission if you don't really want to! That's the beauty of our businesses...we can do what we want! I just wanted everyone to look at it from both ways! :)
 
Dippers' Package FlyerHere's another package flyer with Oil Dipping Set.

As stated by Kelly, you don not have to discount.
I am this month to help my hostess get more stuff.

I probably will change from month to month.

For June and July promotion I am planning on discounting in order to reach sales goal.

Does anyone know why my Word2007 saved my flyer in .docx ?
Is it because I'm using the trial version?
 
okay, going to try again

YEAH!! It worked. Hope you'll like it :)

How about offering the current and or older host half price selection packages -- we already have great pictures of them as sets.

Ugh! I kept trying to post to this message and it wouldn't let me! I had a HUGE reply written and now I accidentally erased it!!

To make a long story short...now that I am mad that I messed around with this for 20 minutes and don't have anything to show for it....

I am doing these too.
Attached is my OOF (thanks JK!!) and my Party Packages

One question, why is pkg #2 called Show Me The Freebies? Is it because the avg min to buy for a guest special is $60?
 
Kelly, I have a question. At the risk of sounding dumb....why is a package called show me the freebies? Am I missing something? Otherwise I LOVE your ideas and I can't wait to try them at my next show!

That's a good idea- do you buy all the products for it and sell it right there at the show- or offer it on paper and buy the products then? What products do you usually include?

I do up a basket with what I have in stock, and then put it on an order for them.

Obviously everyone Top 10 items differ... I know you can check what yours is on the old PP program under reports (top sellers list)
My list is as follows:

Large MicroCooker ~ $9
Seasons Best ~ $1
Can Strainer ~ $4
Food Chopper ~ $29.50
Stackable Cooling Rack ~ $13.50
Bamboo Tongs ~ $2.00
Medium Scoop ~ $11.00
Smooth Edge Can Opener ~ $17.50
Mini Serving Spatula ~ $4.00
Large Bar Pan ~ $29.50

Total of $121.00

You could certainly do just your top 5 or whatever though.
 
I love the package ideas, I was thinking about doing a Mothers Day package and a Fathers Day package. Im not sure what you would put in them but it sounded fun. I know with a fathers day package, It would be mostly barbeque stuff. I dont know just an Idea.
 
here's another package flyer...Hi!
I'm kinda flyer crazy, so I put this one together. It has Mother's Day, Father's Day, graduation, summer entertaining, all kinds of stuff. Let me know if it came thru ok! :)

That is a great flyer!! I love it!
Can someone change it to Word?
 
I like your flyer, Kris. You'll want to fix a typo, though. In the Beautiful Baking and Serving package, "Please" is missing it's "L."
 
Any chance one of you savey folks out there can change this to Word or not?
 
I can try copy/pasting it...
 
not working out real well...does anyone know how to convert this? I actually created it in Publisher and was able to convert it to a pdf...but it won't go into a Word doc with all the pics.
 
This package idea is great!
