Make Host Do Her Own Invitations

[Tonimabbott]

I have no label program to do invites for my hosts. How do some of you handle invitations? Do you just give invites to the host and let her do them?

I have always had the hosts send out their own invitations (I give them a pack). I know of several other area consultants who send out the invitations for them, but I have never had a problem with doing it my way. I also set up a portion of my website for their party so they can do e-vites if they like.

If you do the mini catalog invites, you don't need a program, just use the one set up on CC and fill in the info before printing. With post card invites, I hand print them for the host. That way they are more likely to mail them or hand them out. I got a better appreciation for this service when I had a 31 party and the consultant simply mailed me a pack of invites. I had to fill them out AND address AND return address them. I felt like it made having the party that much more difficult/time consuming. I also did email invites to some people, until the consultant bombarded all my friends I'd put in the website with emails. I then dileted everyone. I was so embarrassed.

I make flyers on 8 x 10 colored paper. I just change host name and contact info and everything else stays same for each host. I make about 20 copies and send w/ host packet. Then they just pass out to all their guests or can send in an envelope with regular stamp. Yes, it uses ink and costs a bit for the colored paper but they are very effective. Less cancellations, lots of high attendance.

I send the invitations for them, then you have the contact information for the guests who couldn't make it to follow up with them.

No need for a program. Pampered Chef already did the work for us on Consultant's Corner. Just fill out the preprinted label with the host and show information and print them out on labels you would find at the office supply store.

where would I go on CC to find the preprinted labels Bren706?

Managing your business>>My Shows>>Working With Hosts>>Mini Catalog Invitation LabelsThere's also a Guest List form in that same menu box. It has instructions on there, but basically you just e-mail that form to your hosts and they fill it out, save a copy and e-mail it back to you.

I bought labels at Office Max (using my PC perk card) and found a free downloadable program from Avery to do mine. I like to do my own for the host because that way I know that it's done.
