Just coming back and have questions...

[LDYAPXR]

I was a Mia Bella rep back in 2007 but had to stop the business for personal/family reasons and this year I have decided to restart my business. I already got my COTM for December but I used to use Quickbooks to keep track of my sales and inventory but now I show that as only an online programs that has a monthly fee. What does everyone use to track sales/tax/inventory? I am also looking into the Show on the Go party bags and was wondering if anyone had any good experiences from them? I need to re-order my sample bag as the one I have has less than 40 of the scents that we now carry. Any thoughts would be appreciated. My leader is on vacation until the 4th but I am itching to get started NOW! LOL Thanks in advance!

Hi Darlene:

Welcome back to Mia Bella. I'm not the best to ask about record keeping but we use Quicken. I just make a list of my inventory (no special program).

I haven't used the Show on the Go idea yet but hope to this year. Think it's a great idea since parties don't seem to be too popular where I live.

If you call the company, you can order 3 filled scent samples for $5.00 (I think that's the price and # of samples). It might be cheaper to restock this way or get votives and melt them into empty pots (sold in back office) than buy a new bag. My bag is outdated too and this is how I'm going to replenish.

Best of luck with your business. Happy New Year.
