Should I Wait for a Past Host Number Before Closing My September Show?

[kristina16marie]

I had a late August show that had an early Sepmtember book (the shows were about a week apart.) The problem is that the August host is dragging her feet & the September show is ready to close and P3 is asking for the Past Host# which hasn't been assigned yet because the August show is lagging. Do I have to hold up the September show until the other one closes? If so, how long until a PHD# will be issued?

Is the August host placing an order with the September host's show? If so, tell August she has to close the show today in order to take advantage of the Past Host Discount, otherwise you'll close September's show without adding her order. Let August know, also, that delaying the close of her show is an inconvenience to her guests, as they will not receive their orders in a timely manner. If she's waiting for other orders to come in, she can make it a book party (learned that phrase here!), booked off herself, and get even more benefits!

Sarah is right - Aug host can't place an order on Sept show as a past host until you submit her show. If she wants her PHD (10% off) and the past host special on the Sept. show, she needs to close her Aug. show - plain and simple.
