I have submitted one show and have another tomorrow. I have a friend that wants to place a personal order (lives out of state) not on a show and I can not figure out where she needs to go to place the order? Did I set something up wrong? :confused:
Thanks so much!

Oh I paid for the 6 month subscription if that makes any difference at all...
 
Re: ConfusedHave you submitted $1250 in sales yet? You have to have $1250 in sales before you can accept individual orders online.

If your friend wants to call or email you the order, you can place it as an individual order through P3...

Re: ConfusedOk so she can view everything on the website and then I have to submit it. Also, can people place orders on a hosts show I have set up? I am sure I'll hit $1,250 within the next week, but not before these next 2 shows this week close out :(

Yes...she can view online and then you can submit the individual order via P3.

and Yes! People can place orders as part of a show, just not as individual orders.

Congrats on your great start!
 
Re: ConfusedYou CAN set up a show on your website and guests can order through the show- but just not individual orders yet.Yes- she can view the products, and then just call or email you with the list- or she can wait until you submit those two shows, and within a day or two of you submitting them and being qualified in sales, the individual order option will open up. It will also open up the Outlet for your customers too (individual orders only).*Becky and I posted at the same time...sorry for the repeat> :D*

Re: ConfusedCan I set up an online show for her to see if she can get some other orders or how does that work? She is an out of state friend...
Sorry for all the questions :(And it isn't as great as start as I had originally intended, I had a lot of cancelations and a very low first show. But, I have someone getting ready to sign from it :)

Yes, you could set it up as an online catalog show! That would be even better!

Whoot! congrats on the recruit! With the new career plan, you earn more commission beginning with your very first recruit!
