If I had a September show yesterday (Sept. 30) and submit in October...the host & guests can get the Sept specials, but it counts towards my Oct sales, right?

Just want to make sure I have that clear. If so that will work well for all as that will keep me active!

TIA
 
Yes - as long as it's dated September you can get the specials for September and yes it will count toward your October commission.
 
There's a trick to remembering dates and what counts for what:
  • Specials (host and guest) are based on SHOW DATE. Whatever date you have as the show date is what determines the specials. You have until the end of the following month to submit shows and have HO honor the specials.
  • Commission/monthly sales goals are based on SUBMISSION DATE. This is what counts for sales requirements for staying active, too.
  • Sales Promos (like Sell-a-thon) are usually based on a combination of SHOW DATE and SUBMISSION DATE. Check the fine print on the individual promo for details.

Hey, congrats on staying active! I wasn't sure if you'd decided to stay around or not.:)
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I count sales from a September show towards my October sales totals?

No, sales from a September show cannot be counted towards your October sales totals. Each month is treated separately for sales tracking and commission purposes.

What if I submit my September show in October?

Even if you submit your September show in October, it will still be recorded as a September sale. The sales are attributed to the month in which the show occurred, not when it was submitted.

Are there any exceptions to the September sales counting towards October?

Generally, there are no exceptions. Sales are strictly categorized by the month in which the show takes place, regardless of when the order is submitted or processed.

How can I keep track of my monthly sales effectively?

To keep track of your monthly sales, maintain a detailed record of each show, including the date and total sales. This will help you ensure that you are aware of what counts towards each month's totals.

What should I do if I have a show at the end of September?

If you have a show at the end of September, make sure to submit it promptly to ensure that all sales are counted for that month. Plan your shows accordingly to maximize your sales for each month.
