So I've been having this problem with shows booked on a current host. In July I had a show that was booked off of the same hosts show in May. She didn't order the host special at all and didn't qualify for the extra free product. So that was no problem. However, here is my dilemma. I had a June catalog host that booked off of herself for August. I didn't create the show and tasks when I closed out the show. When I click on create show and tasks on closed show nothing happens. If I create the show from scratch I'm afraid the past host won't be able to order host special. How do I make sure it's going to register that the past host has the oppurtunity to order host special. I have 2 September shows booked from June shows as well that won't let me do it either. Can anyone help me with this? TIA
 
I don't know how to explain this other than P3 knows. As long as you created the booking in connection with the old show, that host will be able to order the past host special.
 
As long as you added it as a "booking" you should be fine! The "task" are really just for you... nothing to do with Home Office.
 
Yes, as long as you showed it as a booking with home office, you are fine if you didn't "create" the show in your P3 system right then. When I first became a consultant I attended a show (Tricia's) where me and one of my friends (Stacey) both booked. When I hosted my show & decided to sign as a consultant, my recruiter gave me the bookings from my show AND Stacey's booking from Tricia's show. Even though Tricia's show was not in my P3, I was still able to enter Stacey's show and give Tricia the booking benefit because HO showed it in their system. It WILL work. ;)

Yep, booking benefits follow the host not the consultant!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to book shows off of other shows?

Booking shows off of other shows refers to the practice of scheduling new cooking shows during an existing show. When guests attend a show and enjoy the experience, they may be inspired to host their own show, leading to additional bookings for the consultant.

How can I effectively book shows off of other shows?

To effectively book shows off of other shows, engage with guests during the event. Share your excitement about hosting, explain the benefits of being a host, and offer incentives such as discounts or free products. Make sure to ask for bookings at the end of the show when the energy is high.

What are some strategies to encourage guests to book their own shows?

Some effective strategies include highlighting the fun and social aspects of hosting, showcasing exclusive host rewards, and sharing testimonials from past hosts. Additionally, consider offering a special promotion for guests who book their shows during the event, such as a free product or a discount on their order.

How can I follow up with guests after a show to secure bookings?

Following up with guests after a show can be done through personalized messages, phone calls, or emails. Thank them for attending, ask for their feedback, and remind them of the benefits of hosting their own show. Be sure to include a call to action, inviting them to schedule a date for their show.

What if I don’t get any bookings during a show?

If you don’t secure any bookings during a show, don’t be discouraged. Use this as an opportunity to gather feedback and understand what might have influenced their decision. You can also reach out to guests individually after the show to discuss hosting opportunities and address any concerns they may have.
