I thought I'd pass along a tip that has worked great for me. Last season I ended up with a lot of them show invitations that I can't use. When booking a show at a show, I first ask the new host(at check out) which host special appealed to them most. This helps me see which month they are looking at for their show. I then show them the flip chart pictures (Love them) that I showed earlier in the show I ask which theme show appeals to them. Since I send out invitations for hosts, I can give them their packet at the show, then I know which invitations to order for their show. (if a month out). Of course I keep some on hand, but I'm not stuck with invitations I may not use. When I make the second call, I will have them choose the recipe.
 
I had some Italian theme show invites left and it was great because I still offer an italian theme show. Now I wish I had more. I guess if anything else, I can always make up theme show flyers. I'm starting to ask them what type of show they'd like to do while I'm booking thier date at the party. It has helped out a lot!
