Insert a picture of the new consultant kitI had to put that there and take the picture off- the file would not have posted otherwise.

That does sound good! :)
 
How does the "Dollar Day" special work. Does the host get the item(s) free or does she "buy" the set for $9. I'm a newbie and love the newsletter! Thanks!

Dollar DaysMy dollar day: The day the host closes the show, she gets ONE of the 3 items of the month (that I chose that are close to $30) for the amount of the day that the show closes. So if she/he closes on the 11th of the month, she/he could get the pitcher for $11. (You will put it on their order- using their host discount, using your tpc card to pay the difference)- Does that make sense?

WOW--what an awesome newsletter--Thank You for sharing!! The Dollar Day promotion really does work-I had one lady change from the last weekend in July to the first weekend in July just to get the Dollar Day special. YEAH
 
I like your layout. I am still experimenting with giving mine a new look and yours is great! It also reminded me that I forgot the upcoming specials. Thank goodness I did it early too!

Thanks for sharing.
 
Having problem's to send it outHey girls,
Have any of you had any problem sending this beautiful newsletter to your clients by email. :confused: I've tried I think twice and each time I tried to cut and paste and then even attach it to my email. They can't even see anything!!:mad: This is very frustrating for me. They either see a bunch of letters or nothing at all. I really love this news letter and would like to use it, cause I think it would really help my bussiness. I have Hotmail. Can anyone help me??

You girls are the best!!
Tina :)
 
Hey Brenda great newsletter. I see some pieces from one I did in May, however I love some of the things you added and may have to copy them for June! Our boys have similar names. Mine are Brendon and Braden!

Tina ~ when I send my newsletter I usually convert it to pdf and send it as an attachment. If you can't convert you could always save it to your computer and still send it as an attachment. For the e-mail I write something like...

I have attached my June Newsletter. I hope you enjoy reading it and be sure to try out the featured recipe.

How are you trying to open it? Do you have microsoft word?

You may need to right-click over it, download it to your computer, and then open the downloaded version. If that does not work, email me and I'll send it to you.
 
kdawn1124- Hi thanks for your reply. I've tried to send it as an attachements but some of them just get a whole bunch of letter's. Especially someone who has Microsoft Outlook, they only get a bunch of letters instead. Very frustrating.
Thanks for your help though. I was kind of thinking that I was missing something. But I guess not.

Tina
