When a host buys the host specials/and rewards, do we receive commisson on their sales as well. Or is it just the guest sales we recieve commision off of?
Oh, by the way, July is my first SS month. I already have a lady who is going to buy the Gen. II cookware set. I am so excited!! My first show is July 6th, my mom is hosting for me. Should I turn the cookware order in with my mom's orders or should I submit the cookware as a show of it's own?
 
You could turn it in on your mom's show, or make your own show with outside orders and you could put it on yours, just another way to add to your SS kit for free, and Congrats! A while back one of my hosts told me that one of her outside order people's husband was trying to get his wife to order one of the sets of cookware but she wouldn't go for it. :( :p
 
IndecisiveThe host special, half-priced items and Free Products do not count toward our commission.

Be nice to your mom!! Add the lady's order to your mom's order. Course since you would like to submit the 2 shows in July to receive free fall products and you are trying to qualify it wouldn't be a bad idea to submist it as a show. Technically, it does qualify. I guess it is down to what you want. Are you in a hurry to qualify? Do you have other July shows lined up? Would this lady be willing to show the catalog to a few friends to see if they would like anything and then she could get some real host benefits (and maybe a future booking for you).

I am a bit indecisive on this one. Sorry! When I started typing I thought the answer was clear. Hopefully someone else can provide clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions

When a host buys the host specials, do we receive commission on those sales?

No, consultants do not receive commission on host specials purchased by the host. Host specials are discounted items available exclusively to hosts, and while they can help increase the overall sales for the party, they do not count towards the consultant's commission.

Do host rewards count towards my sales for promotions?

Host rewards do not count towards your personal sales for promotions. Only the sales generated from customer orders during the party will contribute to your sales totals for promotions and bonuses.

If a host buys products at a discount, does that affect my commission?

Yes, if a host buys products at a discount, it does not affect your commission directly. However, since host specials are not included in the total sales amount for commission calculations, your commission will only be based on the full-price items sold to other customers.

Can a host use their rewards to buy additional products?

Yes, hosts can use their rewards to purchase additional products. However, these purchases will not generate commission for the consultant, as they are considered part of the host's rewards rather than customer sales.

Are there any benefits for consultants when a host buys host specials?

While consultants do not earn commission on host specials, having a host purchase these items can increase the overall sales for the party, which may lead to higher rewards for the consultant based on total party sales. Additionally, it can enhance the host's experience and encourage them to host future parties.
