Chocolate Lovers Favourite...

What more could anyone want on a dreary, wet and windy Monday than a selection of delicious chocolate treats?

I particularly love the chocolate dipped strawberry gift tag which matches the wrapping paper.

Mmmmm.... and at only £1.40 for both the Gift Wrap and Tag, the price is yummy too!!

Times Tables Poster...

This wonderful, colourful, Times Tables poster is my Friday Favourite for this week. With the fun animal theme it is sure to help make learning easier!

It is produced on quality 170gsm stock, and comes in a lovely violet pearlised tube!

It measures 19.5" x 27.5" (500mm x 700mm) and is available to buy for £6.00!

For a free full colour brochure of all currently available stock, please send your details via the Contact Form.

Favourite Card for Cat Lovers...

This is the first of my "favourites" posts! I thought I would introduce some of my own, personal favourite Phoenix Trading products, and the first, I thought, had to be a cat card!

This cute card is available for £1.50. Measuring 5" x 5" and coming with a quality 100gsm envelope, it's sure to put the smile back on many a cat lovers face!

As with the majority of the beautiful cards from Phoenix Trading, The inside of the card is left blank for your own message.

A quick update...

Ahhh, the wonders of modern technology!

This morning I have learned how to import/export posts etc from one blog to another, so I moved the existing posts about my Phoenix Trading business from my other blog (www.writedirection.org.uk) to this one so that they are all together. This means, unfortunately, that the first few posts appear out of sync thanks to my "Welcome" post, but I am happy to leave it that way.

As far as Phoenix Trading is concerned, I have been busy putting brochures out (150 last week, just over 100 this week so far) and have had my biggest single order so far... for £43.40!! It was great opening up a brochure and finding an order of that size! So my previous single order record of £25.00 lasted about 10 days... I wonder if it would be possible to get a bigger order from one customer than the new record? I will be collecting the brochures I put out yesterday on Saturday, so I only have a couple of days to wait!

In addition to putting brochures out I have had a couple more trader enquiries - via the Freepost cards! I also have a selection of baskets now which I will be filling with samples etc for "Book People" type drops at offices etc. There is a massive British Gas call centre not far from where I live so I'm going to see if I can get into there!

One of my upline peeps (Julia Leahy) gave me a great tip the other day regarding schools and getting both orders AND trader enquiries... Approach the school's PTA chair with regards providing every pupil with a drop bag containing a catalogue, samples etc. Put an info letter in there explaining that a percentage of the order value will go to the school funds, and instructions for the parents to send the payment in with the order by a certain date! Bearing in mind that the new Christmas supplement is about to come out (£16/100) we are fast approaching the time when focus should be shifting slightly in favour of promoting the Christmas stock.

My plan is to approach the PTA's of the primary schools in Stockport now so I can get whatever I need ready during the school holidays, then aim to have all the packs out with the children and back into the school again before the half term holidays. When the children return after half term their orders will be ready for collection!

Something I noticed on the July Newsletter is that the price of the Organiser Boxes is dropping from £15.00 to £10.00 - and they make great presents! Another possible best seller for Christmas?

A Welcome Note...

Welcome to the online home of my personal Phoenix Trading blog.

It is here that you will find details of what I have been up to with my new venture, and facts and figures regarding those activities.

I originally started posting Phoenix related info on my other blog, Write Direction, but I decided that I need to keep my two businesses seperate.

For those of you who haven't yet visited my other blog, a bit of background information on the start of my Phoenix adventure.

I joined the company on 20th June 2011, having had information sent to me around nine months earlier. At the time I received the initial information pack I wasn't really ready to join, as I didn't feel I could commit to it as fully as I would have liked. Thankfully, my sponsor, Elaine, didn't forget me, and sent new supplements as they came out, the most recent being the Summer 2011 supplement, along with an info sheet on the £30 registration/business kit. It took a few more weeks, but when I finally had the time to sit and read the information Elaine had sent to me, I saw the potential Phoenix had as a source of income for me, and within days I had received my business kit!

Since then I have done a school fair, bought 150 brochures etc to put out in rounds I put together using Google maps, delivered, along with my husband and daughter, in excess of 2000 flyers, had one person join my team, and several trader enquiries via the freepost cards. I have also bought enough sample cards (only 10p each!) to fill several baskets, which I will be placing with local businesses.

The area in which I live, (Stockport in Cheshire) is relatively un-touched by Phoenix Trading, with only around 30 agents in total, therefore the potential for growth both on the retailing side of the business AND team development opportunities are phenomenal! There has, in my opinion, never been a better time to start a venture such as this, therefore I intend to make the most of it!

If you would like a free brochure, or if you would like more information on becoming a Trader, please send me an email with your Name and Address on it and I will get the information send out to you. Alternatively, you can visit Phoenix Trading and see more information there. Don't forget, Phoenix Trading is an international company with traders in Australia, America and France as well as the UK!

Until next time,
