I kept wondering if I earned the midseason products (thought I had) but they aren't showing up by checking them "the back door way". The only order with a G I have is my new consultant kit. Anyway, after looking at my IPT, I submitted a little over $1250 in sales by April 20th but one of the catalog shows was dated 3/9 but not submitted until 4/6. I could have easily changed that date if that is what kept me from earning the products. I guess I thought it was the date they were submitted, not the show date. I am confused or is that correct?
 
It's both. "Shows held and submitted...."

Bummer. I'm so sorry! How disappointing..... :(

Could you call HO and say that you entered the show into PP that date and forgot to change it to the correct date? I don't know if it will fly, but I guess it can't hurt to try???


(Hey, I rhymed!)
 
I bet you'll never forget to read the fine print from now on. :)

No, I guess I won't. To be honest, I was so concerned with qualifying in my first 30 days and earning the PC dollars that this was a bonus but it's still irritating.
 
Hey, at least you can use your PC$ to get the mid season products at half off!
