Do we get to take advantage of the hostess and guest specials also? And if so, how do we enter them into PP3?
 
When you host a show, you CAN take advantage of those items. You just don't make commission on your order.
 
When you add an item, click the little magnifying glass to search. There are two categories you'll look for - host special and guest special.

So if I'm doing a show (not as host) can I also order the host special or guest special? Maybe I didn't make myself clear on the first question.
 
Yes, you would list yourself as consultant as host. Yes, you are entitled to get the host special and if the guest special is for instance spend $60 and you get this free for example you too would have to spend $60 or more to get it free, just like a real host.
 
no only if you are "acting" as the host.
So if you host a open house/ your own cooking show you CAN or if you host a catalog show you CAN.
HTH :)
 
If you're asking if you can add yourself as a guest on a host's show and get guest benefits, yes you could if you spent the $60. If you wanted host benefits and the host wasn't using them, you could ask if they minded if you used them.That's almost what I think you're asking... not sure.
 
How confused are you now!! lol :eek:

OK--I just reread the whole thread. If you are asking as the consultant doing the show for a host the answer is no unless the host is not taking advantage of the special(s) and of course you would pay for what you are ordering under her show.
 
That was a bit confusing for a while!
