I have a January host that booked off herself for March, now she would like to change the date to today and do a catalog show so she can get the 2 @ 60% off. Can she also be entered as a guest at this catalog show and receive another 2 @ 60% off? And when I enter her catalog show and she has two people who will book off of this catalog show can I also add her name again as a booking? So this host will receive four items 60% off and have three bookings.? Does all that sound correct?
 
Yes- you've got it!

Oh , Thank Goodness..
 
Put the most expensive items as the past host, they count more towards her show that way! I always book my host off themselves, I just do it on their host order.
 
Hi there! Thank you for reaching out with your questions. I'm happy to help clarify the details for your January host's catalog show. According to our policies, a host can only receive the 2 @ 60% off discount once per calendar month. Since your host already received this discount in March, she would not be eligible to receive it again for a catalog show in the same month. However, she can still earn host rewards for her catalog show, such as free and discounted products. As for being entered as a guest at the catalog show, that is up to your host's discretion. And yes, if your host has two people who book off of her catalog show, she can be entered as a booking for each of them, which would result in a total of four items at 60% off for her. I hope this helps clarify things for you. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!
