Re: CommissionSo if we self host a show and purchase something at say 20% using the host discount, we will also get a commission back on that purchase?

No - if you as the consultant host a show, you don't make commission on any of your purchases. Usually when I host a show, I use only my free, half-off, and host bonus benefits.

We get commission on what they buy using their show discount but we do not get any commission off the Host Special or Half Price Items.

The discounted price.

The discounted price.

But not if it is the half-price or Host Special...
 
Re: CommissionYou also get commission from individual orders, web orders, registry orders as well. P3 lists commissionable sales in the upper right hand corner I believe. Sometimes it's more and sometimes it's less than the guest sales since when a past host orders the host special (as their booking benefit), you don't get commission on that either.
