  • Sales Tools 2.0 FAQ

    Note: Since we published this FAQ, we’ve received some additional questions regarding sales requirements for seasonal swatches, and how we are handling Sales Tools 2.0 for New Stylists. These additional questions and answers are now in the Q&A at the end of this article.

    Your J.Hilburn Stylist Development Team and Product Team are proud to present our new Sales Tools 2.0! We have been working with a dedicated team of Stylist developers and beta testers to provide the most compact and portable way to carry your J.Hilburn Sales. The official format of Sales Tools will change to this new system starting July 14, 2022. 

    All Stylists will receive their Fall/Winter 2022 swatches in the new format, with the basic Sales Tools 2.0 components, for FREE! Stylists attending Annual Summit 2022 will receive their Sales Tools onsite at the event, with non-attendees being shipped their Sales Tools after the event. Also, pre-order is now open in the Stylist Store for attendees who would like to purchase add-on items, which can also be picked up at the event. Read on for all the details!
