thank you.

I take it not many of you hv C4 yet? There are free samples in it so I am going to order some. Page 119 i think. There is a big spread on the new solutions range and it says. Order you free samp now.

is there a limit on how many u can order. if not i might stock up and use them as incentives during the year

Bit of a long shot but I wondered if anyone had ordered the Pashmina on page 136 of the C2 Sale book for Stock etc as mother in law has just phoned and said that she would like it - Typical I could have back ordered this on Monday but cant now - Happy to pay P & P its on at £7 - Have also put this on the latest wanted ads on the website too

Thanks everyone xx

Smellybeki - I have just checked the brochure and it says one free sample per customer but if you have customers that don't order one you can add more that way.

Hi mrsldg

Once you make the plunge and get out there it will all flow again. It's just plucking up the courage, but just think once you've made a start it will be fine. It really is worth it. Just think of all the new people you will meet and the extra cash you will make, and once you get back into it you will really enjoy it. Go on get out there. :A You can do it.

Hi Mrsldg - You could have no better example than Johanne, who posted something very similar when she started, and look at her now Congratulations Johanne :beer:

Just take the bull by the horns and get going again; starting is always the worst bit.

Good luck with your first order Snowwhite. The best way to deal with it is to start with any very obvious items and the smallest orders, then work up to the more complicated ones. By the time you get to the biggest order, you'll have less to sort through. I also very roughly sort my boxes as I go along, so I shift all the make up to one box and lotions & postions to another. etc. I also take out any large items like bath foam & put them to one side - it saves them falling over & crushing smaller items as you rummage through. It's a good idea too to put each order into its own carrier bag (recycled from the shopping, or cheap on the market). That keeps the paper bag, brochure & any samples together and keeps them dry in wet weather. Write the name, door number and price on the outside, and you can loop several on your arm leaving your hands free for the money. I didn't do that for my first order, and found myself juggling fragile paper bags, slippery brochure bags and needing a third hand for the cash :rotfl:

Hi All

I have not long been out and drop off my first set of brouchures. did 30 for now, going back to collect in a couple of days then i will do some more. My round is only 70 houses so it only little.

I am really hoping to make min order though. I have started on C4 with HT6.

With the HT's when can we order promo products? And how long do we get?

Hi Ellejay

Good luck for reaching min order. I only put books out to 70 houses to start with and got £165 orders and friends and family ordered as well making order up to £250 so it is possible.

Best wishes
Anne

HI Ellibee

Thank you for the good advice on sorting out my first order. That will really help. Also using a carrier bag is a good idea as I was thinking is the brochure in plastic bag going to fit into paper bag with order. OOh can't wait. Am I sad or what lol?
