I am placing my 1st supply order. Any must haves for new consultants?
 
order the business building kit
 
Defenitely the business building kit, and I suggest the tool-turn-about.
 
Don't go overboard. Especially with things that you don't think you'll use, but want just because they're on the order form. :) Stick to the basics.And I agree - order the business building package that's available for new consultants only. It's a great deal!
 
I am pretty sure you can order the Round Up from the Heart Trivet too. It's FREE!
 
Yes...how do you order the RUFTH trivet free?? :confused:
 
I want to know how to get it free too! LOL

I say order a few door prizes like the wooden spoons and seperate them with a ribbom, the $1.00 (well $1.200 for a customer) cookbooks, and maybe a citrus peeler set.
 
The round up trivet is free to all consultants. Do a search of $0 using the magnifying glass.

Get the business builder kit. But ... it might be to your benefit to wait a couple of months because it comes with 50 more books ... and if you get it now, you'll get fall winter and not the new spring catalog.
 
ALSO ... they have past seasons best for a better price ... since guests love seasons bests no matter the season, there ya go.

Okay, just looked at the supply order form and don't see it. Where is it and how am I missing it?? :confused:
 
Go to your P3. Click the 3rd icon at the top. It is "Add a new non-commission order". You put in the date you are sending it in. Then go to the drop-down menu and click on "Supply Order". Cllck on your "Items" tab. You click on the green plus sign to add an item. Then go to the "magnifying glass icon" and type in "Trivet" and it will pull it up. Double-click on the item name and it adds it to your order. Only 1 free per year to each consultant. If this is your first order this period (Sept to Feb), you will automatically get 50 write-in sales receipts without ordering them for free as well.
 
Thank you! :chef:

I am not seeing the tool-turn-about on the supply order. Am I missing it?
 
The TTA isn't on the supply order.

Definitely get the Business Building Kit, but note that you can only get it in your first 60 days. You don't want to put it off TOO long!

If you're planning on making the 3-cheese pizza for your demo, get the Italian seasoning.

I have gotten a TON of mini catalogs and hand them out all over the place. I'm including them in my invitations now because I heard it increases show sales and outside orders. (I've only done this once so far.)
