Yea I am thinking I am probably going to be able to do my event on Aug. 14th so i wanna make sure I will have new products for that day. It really sucks when you going to be gone for a little over a week in the middle of the month so trying to get all the shows scheduled and wanting to do my event so it makes hard sometimes.
 
You get a form with the changeover kit. However, I'm not sure how quickly they'll send it out. You'll definitely have time to order, have it & play a bit with it by mid-August.

Thanks Jules :)
 
So do we have to order the changeover kit? Is that how we get the new fall paperwork? Or is the changeover kit automatic and we buy additional stuff on our own?

Changeover kit is automatic.

New Consultant Paperwork All New Consultant Kits shipped

• New fall paperwork
• A spring/summer transition packet:
• 50 write-in receipts
• 25 spring/summer catalogs
• 3 Independent Consultant Agreements
Beginning Aug. 23, kits will include new fall paperwork only.
 
I had heard some where that you could do a preview sale in August of the new Fall products, is that true, or do you have to wait until Sept. 1st to sell them?
 
You can't order new products for customers until September. Some consultants who hold preview shows let their customers know that orders will be held until September.
 
can the discontinued items still be ordered though, if it's submitted Sept. 1st?
 
Only on a show dated August. And the new things can only be ordered on a show dated Sept. 1 or later.

In order to order the discontinued items, show would have to be dated for August. So you can't submit a show with new Fall/Winter items and discontinued items. But if theres enough you can split it into 2 shows. An old and a new.
