I am wanting to hand out recruiting packets at my shows when people show interest, but don't know exactly what I should be putting in there. IDEAS?? Thanks!
 
I just made new ones with the recruit rewards, FAQ's, and the DVD. Don't put too much info in or they will run away!

THANKS, you hear these words, "recruit packet", "host packet", but no where is there a little form that says, "put abc into recruit packet."

Maybe I've just been overthinking it!!!
 
Well I used to put the opportunity brochure, super starter brochure, and imagine more brochure.

Now..... I think I will put the DVD for sure, the rewards brochure, and new opportunity brochure.

I think I will be purchasing alot of those DVDs!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Yes, the DVD .....I will be getting a lot of those as well! What do we have to lose???? I have been handing out empowering women magazine to women that seem interested. I do have one that I keep and pass around at my shows after a recruiting line toward the end of my show.
 
I am stocking up on the DVD's! I am glad they make them affordable for us to use and possibly lose!
 
I'm anxious to get my DVDs ordered, too. I think they'll be a great recruiting tool, especially for those who aren't big readers.
 
I agree....I'd rather watch something than read it!
 
me too... why didn't they think of this before??
 
So how do you order the DVD? I can't find it on the supply order form. Thanks.
 
I can't remember what they are called - but it comes in pack of 5 for $6.00.

I am planning on handing out the DVD, the new brochure and an unpopped bag of microwave popcorn. Maybe put in a little note that they should take a few minutes to pop the corn and sit down and enjoy the show while thinking about the business.

Kind of a a little movie night thing?

I think potential recruits - if I can find any - would really like watching it!

I LOVE YOUR POP-CORN IDEA!!! I am definitely going to "borrow" it!!!!:D

Hmm... maybe a sticky note on the DVD:

"Thanks for POPPING me in!! Enjoy the show!!":p
 
One of the directors in my upline heard someone suggest at leadership to put a note on the DVD saying only watch if you are not 100% satisfied with your current job. I thought that was cute and to the point.
 
Okay, I found in PP by looking for a $6 item something called Your Life, Your Way. That must be it. It has no description and I still don't see it on the supply order form.

Hmmmm....How many to order? BEE
 
I found it..... it isn't in PP, but it IS in PP+. The item # is FL13...Spanish is FH81. Hope this helps.
 
Thanks. That's the item number I found in PP (haven't installed plus) so perhaps an update will help. Thanks....
