She had two shows booked from her which I gave her as her first shows. Is she still eligible to receive the host special as the booking benefit?
 
Nope. Not once she signs. (darn)
 
Instead of the host special, she'll be earning $$ & PC dollars! When you look at it that way, signing is a MUCH better "deal"!! Congrats again Brandi!!

Is she going to be using kit credit from her show? If not, maybe she could close her show in someone else's name (like a sister or someone). Then she could still take advantage of the booking benefits in her sister's name at the other shows. Just a thought.

Good idea Heather. I never thought of that . But yes she did use her kit credit. The show is closed and she will be sining as soon as the kit credit info hits home office!
 
Congratulations on your recruit!
