We're just starting it this week, and I also don't see our women pre-ordering :(. I'd be interested in your experiences thus far. We're planning on about 300 recipes and selling 200 books. We have 12-15 active girls, so we didn't want to get too much. But that would only be a profit of $500 or so. Suggestions for selling more? Ideas? I sure would love to not do car washes this spring .

I originally contacted the cookbook company with the intention of getting their idea and making it ourselves. I'm a mooch from way back. But when they sent me a sample, and the cost, I calculated that we couldn't make a comparable book any cheaper, and it would be a lot more painful. For about $3.00 per book, you get them to type all the recipers, sort them, copy them, page dividers (sections), little ingredient substitution pages and nutritional pages, cardstock cover and back (laminated) in full color, and spiral bound. Here, the spiral binding alone is $1 a copy at Kinko's. Our RS at another ward did one years ago that didn't turn out as well, for about that price per person. But it needs to look really good if you're going to turn around and sell it for $6 a copy, and the one from the company looks like it could make the price. So that's why we're going that way. I really believe the key is selling outside the ward. We probably have 75 active women, but not all would buy. And some would buy 2 or 3. So maybe 100 sold that way. Has anyone tried selling something like this outside Walmart or a place like that? I thought maybe we could make up some bread or cookies from a recipe in the book, and give away or sell small samples, with the cookbooks displayed for sale. How out of whack is it to expect each girl to sell 10? From neighborhood and friend sales? Where else have you sold things? What about going to a business or even to a police or fire station as a gift for their wives? I'm not much of a sales person--who has experience? Help!

I'd be interested in your experiences thus far. We're planning on about 300 recipes and selling 200 books. We have 12-15 active girls, so we didn't want to get too much. But that would only be a profit of $500 or so. Suggestions for selling more? Ideas? I sure would love to not do car washes this spring . >> Like I said we have 135 orders just from 41 women. I figure there are that many again who haven't ordered yet, but I know that many are ones that will want them... even if just one for themselves. The young women have been working on calling the women who submitted recipes but didn't give us an estimate of how many books they would like. Also, we are calling women who didn't contribute but that I'm sure will want one. In the past when we have sold things, when it comes time to deliver the item (like easter candy) it seems that MANY of the people are asking if we have any more & can they buy more. As it gets closer to the holiday people start thinking of all kinds of people they could give to. I think that may happen with the cookbooks at Christmas time also. I am figuring we are making 5.00 per book. The book will cost 3.oo to make & then we are charging 8.00 for a nice recipe book of over 300 recipes. Is that out of line? Everyone seems to think that is a reasonable price. I just paid 10.00 for a school cookbook with only half that many recipes. Also, as long as we know we have enough "sure thing" sales to cover the costs of all the books, plus send all our girls to camp, I don't mind having leftover books. We will just put them in our young women closet to sell to new move-ins, etc. over the next year. To increase sales & interest we requested recipes from past ward members or their addresses or phone numbers to contact them & include their recipes. A great way to remember them & I figured they would want to remember us too by buying a cookbook! Also, we are having a tasting party at an all-day Saturday Homemaking in October. It's a full day holiday & craft day & there is a great turn-out for that. So we will be calling up the sisters & asking them to bring a dish of a recipe they submitted. I have kept a copy of which recipes we got & from whom & we will ask them to bring a specific item so we have a nice variety. We will make up a little card to sit in front of each dish that says the name of the dish & who submitted the recipe. I wish the books would be back by then to have them at the tasting party & have a couple girls sitting there selling them... but I think we will have a couple girls taking orders for the books on that day. Our ward is VERY enthusiastic about the cookbook. The ward has never had a cookbook & so many people have said how excited they are about it. Hope it shows in our sales!!! It is just a busy time to try to get a hold of people. I know many who have not reserved copies have either been busy & haven't thought about it... or didn't realize they could or should. Don't know if that helps you any.... - - To unsubscribe to lds-yw, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe lds-yw" in the body of the message.

For our comibined lesson (Fast Sunday) we invited a member of the bishopric to present the theme. It went VERY WELL!! I was amazed at how quiet and respectful the young women were. They actually listened and learned something! I think it is a great idea and I will definately do it again. I think it helps the young women grow closer to the bishopric, as well as give them a chance to fell of their spirits individually. Another thing we have started, is having a member of the bishopric be in our opening exercies each week. This really helps with the reverence problems. (This was the bishops idea!) Hope this helps! _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

I was hoping someone out there could help me. I am the 2nd counselor in our Stake Y.W. Presidency and have been asked to do a Beehive/Deacon Conference. While I'm really not sure yet what the purpose of such a thing is, since the Beehives and Deacons are too young to "socialize" in my opinion, I am thinking that we could still do something that wouldn't put them together so much, but which they could both attend. Have you had any successful Beehive/Deacon Conferences that you would want to tell me about? I would sure appreciate it!

I agree that the beehives and deacons should not be in the social activities, why would you be anxious to go to the dances if you can socializes with people your age?

Over the summer we have had about half of our active YW move out of the ward and we are left with only 7 active YW. (We have a very small YW's because we only have about 4 inactives.) Anyways we leaders have had the idea all summer to have a leadership sleepover once all the presidencies had been called. Now that has been accomplished. We have a very diverse group of girls--they are all nice to one another but there aren't any strong friendships among the girls--not much in common with one another. So we have decided to do a sleepover with the emphasis being on building unity and sisterhood with some leadership lessons sprinkled in. My problem is we decided to do this as a surprise next Tuesday. I thought if I told you a few things we want to do, maybe it would spark some ideas that you could share that would fit in. First off, we will meet at the church and do some activities where the girls have to work together in order to solve a problem. I thought maybe the Bishop might even say a few words about unity and working together. Then I thought after we get to my house for the sleepover part, which will be a surprise to the girls, we would maybe play some games where we get to know each other better--maybe using the M& M game or toilet paper game. I also wanted to maybe talk about negative feelings and words using the idea posted awhile ago with the ball of yarn making a web by saying nice things to each other and then go in a cut the strings when negativity enters into the group. We would brainstorm ideas for upcoming activities and start planning for next year as well as remind the girls of their duties as class presidencies. I also like the idea of decorating pillowcases and letting the girls sign each other's pillowcases. (Will any fabric paint work or does someone have a recommendation?) That is about all I have come up with today since our presidency meeting. We all left the meeting to brainstorm and iron out details over the phone. Any other thoughts or words of wisdom? Or things you have done to promote unity and sisterhood? Sometimes I feel like you guys are my functioning presidency and my counselors are there to carry out your wonderful ideas. My counselors are pretty quiet in the idea department, but are great in carrying out the plans. They are getting better though. Thanks in advance and sorry this is so long.

I will try to put some more down and post them. I just tried to put together things I had seen over the years and events that the young people would relate too. I will be going to Utah and Idaho on the 17th so it will be after that when I post them.
