When Can I Give Out New Catalogs?

[BBratrace]

This is my first change over season. I have a booking for the second weekend in September and the host wants the catalogs now. How soon do you give out the catalogs for the new season?

There really isn't any official "rule" about when you can give the catalogs out. Now that conference is over, you can share the information with any and all of your customers if you choose. The only thing you'll want to consider is whether your calendar looks they way you want it to for August. If you start passing out the catalog to your potential hosts, they'll want to book for September to get the new products, which isn't helpful to you if still need bookings for August. Since this host is already booked for September, that's not an issue though.

just remember the new catalog orders cannot be placed until Sept 1

I passed it around to my family at lunch yesterday and already had over $100 in orders, so when they asked me when will they get it? I replied that i can't place the order under until sept 1... and they were like "OH!"

So i wouldn't pass it around to anyone until closer to sept 1

if it's a September host, that's fine. But like the others said, don't go flaunting the new stuff until your August is how you want it.

Don't forget to let everyone know about the Chillzanne's being discontinued. I sold 10 of them out of 13 orders the other night at a party. I personally will mail out the new catty for the September hostess's but as far as handing them out at shows? not until September will I do that. That is just me.
