I dont think it is to late to book for Jan. We are only into week 2. I got my hostesses packet for her show tonight after Christmas.
Also what part of NV are you in?
 
I am from Carson City Nevada
 
I did 10 shows this month and got them all closed and finished out the month with 4500 so going to conference i am sitting at 12,000 points :) I am so excited I did this.

That is awsome. 7 out of 10 shows held 2 of them were over 500 in sales and 2 wont close until Feb so I am at 1800 in sales which is the best I have done in Jan. I also cant complain since I did have shows.
 
I too just closed my 3 shows and I have $1500...then I also have $180 in outlet sales. I read the promo flyer and it says ALL commissionable sales, so I looked it up on the calculator and sure enuf, all of that counted. This is also my best January ever, so I'm off to a good start. Got lots of bookings now for the next 2-3 months!
