Can fundraisers get free shipping on their orders?

[mmilus]

I have a fundraiser that just started Friday for which the chairman has already placed a $270 order. I try to enter online orders into P3 as soon as possible so I know it's been done. When I enter her order, it still shows the $4.50 shipping. I know that regular hosts don't have to pay this and assumed that the same would hold true for fundraisers. The items will be shipped to her home for distribution so I'm just wanting clarification on shipping for the chairperson. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Fundraiser hosts do not get the host benefits so if she's placing an order as a regular guest to help out the fundraiser then she has to pay regular shipping prices.

My understanding is that the chairperson CAN order the host specials - they just don't get free product or half-price items or a percentage off. Am I incorrect? I haven't said anything to her either way so dont' think she's going to care, I'm just trying to make sure I understand as I'm a fairly new consultant (Nov. 2010). Thanks!

Yes, the chairperson can order the host special but they do not get the free products, half-price products, discount, discount for the following year, booking benefit or free shipping.

Yes what she said! I always forget the host special part but I have not had a chance to do a fundraiser yet.
