I just received the new catalogs today and they are great! I made a price list and stapled to the inside of the front page. I think these will be great for door hangers. When I get done here off to search for clear door hanger bags. I was thinking one catalog, business card and a scent sample.

If anyone is interested in using the catalogs for door hangers I did find some bags at Uline. The 6x12 bags should work and they are $20.00 for 1,000.

Does anyone know if the new catalogs are meant to replace the trifold brochures?

These catalogs are awesome!! I am very impressed and know my customers will enjoy them! :) I also got some melts in today, they are pretty cute. They are crystalized on top, looks like the votives, the sides and the bottoms are smooth. They come in a resealable bag as well. :)

Thanks Frances! Resealable sounds wonderful. I can't wait to order some.


YES smileys/smiley1.gifThey are keeping both the trifold and the catalogs according to Jon in the training call on Monday. The trifold for business side and the catalog for our retail. smileys/smiley1.gif

Is it best to put up our door hangers with scent samples & the new catalogs in neighborhoods or would the dooorhangers alone or with scent sample attached be effective?

How many a month would be a good amount? 100?

I would prob do doorhangers myself and then anyone who contacts me I would take a catalog too.That's just my opinion. GoodlucK!

With doorhangers and such, you would want to use the trickle effect - remember where you passed them out and return to those same houses in 2-3 months and wait, then go back in 2-3 months, etc. What may have been a bad time when you first passed them out, may just be a prime time sometime down the road - then the next time they see that doorhanger they will remember "oh yea, I meant to check that out!"

Hi Sarah,


Thank you so much for the link! I can not tell you all how excited I am about these new catalogs. My customers are going to go crazy over them. It is also nice to remove them from the business aspect of it. Many of them have said to me that they did not want to do the business. The catalogs will definately do that!


Thanks Sandy for the advice. I will definately keep that in mind.


Many Blessings,


Natalie

I am supposed to get my new catalogs on Monday. I am so excited! I loved the pictures of them that my team shared from the Fling! It looks like Scent-sations really did a great job on them and I will feel so proud to pass them on to my customers.

Hey Lori:


Just wanted to let you know that I got your messages. Thank you so much for calling me. smileys/smiley17.gif


Unfortunately, I have a real bad throat and ear infections. So, I don't have much of a voice at the momentsmileys/smiley18.gif.


I know you said there was a good training tomorrow. Are you talking about the company training? I will definitely go on. Also, I want to order a case of candles, any suggestions on what I should get to have people smell.


Thank you so much , you are always so nice and helpfulsmileys/smiley32.gif

Hey Denise!smileys/smiley17.gif


Thank YOU so much for being a valued member of our Scent-Sational team and for your very kind words!smileys/smiley27.gif


We have a Team Training about Getting Started tomorrow morning and then a Company Call. Both should be great! FYI, I added you to my email list.


When I order cases of our Mia Bella beauties, I normally call the company and ask what the big sellers are for that particular season and for my area. I also ask which Mia Bella scents people are enjoying here and other Mia Bella Candle Lovers.


Look on your back office of your Mia Bella website, in the message section. There are some links with favorite scents. You can never go wrong with the big sellers, including Sweet Orange and Chili Pepper. And, choose the scents you love. If you scroll back on this forum, I started a thread entitled, "Okay Mia Bella Lovers..." That's the last case I ordered for a show I'm doing next weekend along with my Sample Bag, the Bella Bars, Body Wash, Hand Soap and the NEW SCENT-SATIONAL Catalogs I received today!


You could also do a poll here and ask on our Team Yahoo Groups.


I hope you feel better and look forward to speaking with you soon.


Give me a ring when you're up toit.

Does the company provide a price list for the catalogs or do we have to make our own up?

Hey MB WAHMs!smileys/smiley17.gif


The new catalogs have the great new products.


But I also love the look of the "old" catalogs.


Is anyone going to use them together?


Lori Morenosmileys/smiley4.gif

03-27-2006, 08:04 AM
Can someone please tell me if thereis any information about the business at all on the catalog - like on the back or something? I would like something mentioned about the business too, even if just in a subtle way.


If not I guess I can just place a sticker on it.
