Hi:


This is my 2nd go around with my biz....my first time around, I literally spent hundreds of dollars on brochures, samples and the cost of mailing them out and nothing happend for me.


I feel alot of folks took advantage of that freebie....so I am thinking about charging$5 for a brochure, sample pack and postage.


Anyone else doing this? If so, has it been successful?


Thanks so much for your feedback!smileys/smiley2.gif

Personally, I would not pay for a sample.

I'v done a few trade shows andsold sample packs for $5. I tell people if they're interested in purchasing once they've experienced our products, I'll give them the $5 credit towards their purchase!


I've found this puts a "value" on the samples vs. FREE and "I'll get to it...maybe."
