Hey guys a few months back there was a suggestion on how to collect the leads generated from the Catalog Tote using a recipe card holder. The person who introduced it had a quite a few things in the recipe holder. I only remember a few things she put in there, does anyone know what I'm talking about? Do you have the list?

I remember, blank drawing slips, recipes, and that's all I remember. I know she kept at least 4 different things in the holder.

Thanks in advance!!
 
In my catalog tote I have what is an expand a file, similar to the recipe card holder. In it I have:
Business cards, pens, blank drawing slips, recipe cards w/ my contact info on them, mini catalogs and your life your way flyers.
So while I'm out and about I have all the tools with me that I will need.
 
I also have post cards, that explain how to shop the outlet from my web-site.
