I'm a new consultant Joined end of December. I got the flyer in my kit that lets me get extra supplies for just 36 dollars and i have 60 days to use it. My question is if I wait it use it until after the spring catalogs are available for sale will they send me the new spring/summer catalogs or the current fall/winter ones? I'd like to get the biggest bang for my buck.
 
If you have enough supplies to get you through February or have someone who would sell you a few catalogs if you need them then DEFINITELY wait for the new season if you can!

yeah I have plenty of supplies to wait for Feb. i only had two shows booked for Jan and the rest are all for Feb. So I will defiantly hold out then!
 
yes, That is what happened to me, but with the new fall/winter. I was able to get by by asking people not to take the catalogs home.
 
Yes, wait for the Spring stuff - I got my extra supplies in Nov & I have TONS of catalogs! I'm not too worried, because I will just give them away freely instead of the new ones. I'll probably just make an insert that lists/shows the new products and the discontinued products. Just thought of something - I have full sheets of stickers (8.5x11) that I can just type the stuff onto & stick to the back inside page or inside front cover! :)
