Overhauled My Motives Makeup Kit & Demo Supplies
Whatta project!! Now that we have the new Gossip Mineral Collection to include in our demo kits I realized that I had to do a total overhaul on my box. Just fitting the ten new Mineral Silk Lipsticks was an issue. I could move around the brow tints and just toss in the Mineral Eyeshadow Palettes but those lipstick tubes had to get presented better than just a pile in a section.


So just as TS Hanna was moving up the coast, and I already had done our food shopping to prepare, I dumped out the silver beauty box and gave it a major cleaning. There were several discontinued items in there too that had to be removed to keep everything current. It may be fine to use in applications but not for sales demos since customers cannot order them which could lead to frustration & embarassment for the consultant. Keeping the Motives beauty box up-to-date is key to presenting the line properly. I had to keep checking the webportal to see for sure what's listed as current since the pdf file was hard to look at with just codes and all capped titles.
I should've taken a before pic just to show but I was so proud of the way it turned out that I thought to take one for showing here on the blog. Before the once-over the kit was dusty with smears here and there and the bottom liner was peeling up with items just all over. (Yes, I line my box to avoid staining and make for an easy clean up incase of spills or leaks-drawer liner works great or thick scrapbook paper.) At least the messy appearance was due to me using the darn stuff!! I'm a little OCD when it comes to putting things where they belong, problem is I have ALOT of different kinds of stuff and procrastinate lightening the load.
For instance, I still have a file cabinet stocked with old MA business literature, most is fairly current but before the corporate logo revision but then I also have really old stuff in there......like from before the webportal and IBV plan came out. Mind you, I've been with MA for ten years now, some of that stuff is "vintage MA". hehe
So it was my mission to make the Motives kit presentable to clients and students for the next class on the 21st, which isn't that far away. We just had a spontaneous Verizon promo at the shop yesterday for 25cents off every gallon of gas---we had lines 3 or 4 cars deep!! So I had placed the new Gossip cards on the countertop that were labeled with Martini Mineral party so I had better be ready for leads that want a party!! At the end of the day at least ten were taken by customers that came in to pay for their gas.
I've also been really busy making up documents to promote the Martini Mineral parties along with several other fliers that needed to be done. The new Motives manual has Hostess benefits & rewards listed for consultants to reference but we don't have a download so I made one to entice potential hostesses and let them know what they can get out of a party/clinic/event.
Other documents that I wrote up include an opportunity flier for consultants, a guest list, and a helpful party hints bullet point page for hostess that I'm not done with yet. I want to include a Wish List on that one to get them to set a sales goal for the product they want. (If you're a consultant, email me and I'll send it to you but please include your webportal address so that I can verify you are with MA)
Okay here's a photo or two of the Motives beauty box "makeover"....



Amazing! May I post this?
