I am new and this is my first catalog show request. Before I contact the potential host I just want to make sure I have this right. The host benefits are the same for the 60% off one catalog product as it is for cooking show hosts correct? If so what about the cookbook if the show is $550+? Thanks for putting up with a newbie!
