I have a recruit who will hold a show in Dec and will become active again with that show. She also has a couple of individual orders right now that she as has gotten by talking with people. She asked if she needs to submit a minimum of $200 at once or if she could put these individual orders in even tho they don't total $200 now? Help... this is new territory for me.
 
I hope someone answers, I have the same issue right now.
 
Needs to be $200 in one month......I think that is where some of the confusion lies - It's $200 every other month to STAY active, and $200 in one month to reactivate.
 
Becky, does the $200 have to be at one time or can there be individaul orders that will hopefully total $200 in the end?
 
It can be any combination of orders that total $200 in commissionable sales.
 
Yeah - what Ann said!:balloon:
 
I'd call HO on this one...

I had a consultant reactivating and she tried to submit a $75 order and it was denied by HO. I called to find out what the deal was and was told that she had to submit a SHOW totalling $200 or more before she could submit individual orders.

That was last spring so maybe something has changed...
 
According to the policies and procedures it is $200 of COMMISSIONABLE SALES in one month.A consultant can still place orders while inactive, but will not be active again until it is $200 in one month.

That's why I suggested she call... I know that's what the policy says but they wouldn't let my consultant submit an individual order... they said she had to submit a show.

I will call later or probably in the morning when hopefully the wait will be shorter. I don't want to tell her something that isn't going to work for her. She's been hurt by a lady in her church who booked a show from her and then wouldn't date it and then held one with another consultant... even had the gall to HAND DELIVER an invitation right to this sweet girl. I was sad for her but she is rolling back into the swing of things and this Dec. show should get her qualifed and active again. Some people are just cruel.

I remember you telling us that story - too bad - I hope she gets going for the holidays.
