Bagging your brochures for tossing

When I first started out as an AVON representative I heard about tossing as a means of gaining customers. Of course I gave it a shot, and did get both positive and negative responses.
This post isn't about the effectiveness of tossing and is more a guide for how to PROPERLY bag and secure your brochures for a more professional toss. My first toss consisted of throwing an open unsecured what's new bag containing a book into a driveway as I walked around the neighborhood. Needless to say many of them flew out of the bag and scattered, not the best way to impress a prospective customer is it?
Step one:
Fill the What's New bag with your brochures, introduction letter, samples, or anything else you'd like to .
Step Two: Fold the top part of the bag down into the middle of your brochures.

Step Three: Make sure the bag is folded down in neatly, so that it will lay flat.


Step Four: When you have folded the bag down inside the book it should lay as pictured below. This when rolled will make it much more resistant to any moisture (rain or dew) that it may be exposed to.


Step Five: The last step is to roll up bag and secure with a rubber band.
