Business Stationery for Your Craft Home Party Business
In order to run your craft home party business well you're going to need some business stationery. You don't need to spend a fortune investing in everything at once though. Start with the basics, and as you have time (and money) you can add more. Most of it you'll be able to do yourself to start off with.
You will definitely need:
invitations
order forms
I recommend the Printable Party Invitation Creator that allows you to print over 300 unique printable party invitations, including theme party & party games. I'd also recommend that you have these: -
flyers
or brochures - to advertise your home parties
- compliment slips - for quick notes to customers or to thank your hostesses
- letterheads - for any of your business correspondence
Gift certificates
are also a great idea to sell at your home parties.Website or catalogue In addition to the above business stationery, either a website or a catalogue for showcasing your crafts is very useful. Even if you don't actually plan to sell from your website, it's a good place for people to refer to if they want to place a custom order. If you make the same range of designs over and over then a printed catalogue will be fine, but if you do a lot of one offs and frequently change your line then a website is much easier to keep up to date. Unless you plan to build a large portion of your business around website sales, choose the simplest system you can find for setting up a website. If you do want to offer visitors the option of buying, but don't take credit cards yet, then Paypal or Nochex offer an easy alternative.
