I am new and my last two shows the boxes arrived to host on different days. Anyone know why that is?
Example~ today my host is getting 3 out of 7 boxes, and tomorrow the other four
 
I had this happen on my last show and the reason was she ordered three pieces of cookware and those ship separtly.
 
Happens all the time. The way I explain it to my hostesses is this. When the FedEx truck is full the close the door and leave! If that means half of your boxes go on the next truck, then that's the way it goes. I explain to them to wait for box #1 to arrive before they open anything, otherwise they'll be very confused.
 
Don't worry about it unless a couple boxes come several days late. If they miss the deadline for the night then all the rest of the boxes will go out the next morning.
 
That's not at all uncommon and is even addressed in the Thank You letter on Pampered Partner.

In PP, there is a form host letter to send to your hosts when you send their receipts. I use it for all my shows (I've modified it slightly) and highlight the savings they got and the amount they would have received if they had been the consultant. I print it on PC paper that I got from Nancy's.
 
I always tell my hosts how many TOTAL boxes will be arriving. I also urge her to wait until she has the WHOLE order before she starts to divvy up the items. :))))
