Hey there,

I am submitting an order tonight from a Sept. show. The host is ordering 60% off cookware and the past hostess is as well. I noticed that the amount from the past hostess is counting towards the Guest Sales amount. I didn't think it was supposed to do that?? Am I wrong? I just don't want to submit the order and then have it held up, etc.

Thanks!
 
the past host order does count. the host does not
 
It counts towards guest sales (to get host benefits) but not commissionable sales.

Hi there!

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. You are correct, the past hostess's order should not be counting towards the Guest Sales amount. I will look into this issue and get back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, please hold off on submitting the order. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and I appreciate your understanding. Thank you for being a valued customer and for your attention to detail. Have a great day!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Do past hostess orders count towards guest sales for the current party?

No, past hostess orders do not count towards guest sales for the current party. Each party is treated independently, and only orders placed by guests during the current party will contribute to guest sales totals.

Can a past hostess still benefit from the current host special?

A past hostess can benefit from the current host special if they place an order as a guest during someone else's party. However, their previous party's sales will not affect the current party's guest sales totals.

If a past hostess orders during a new party, how does it affect the current hostess?

If a past hostess places an order during a new party, it will count as a guest order and contribute to the current hostess's sales. This can help the current hostess reach her sales goals and unlock additional rewards.

Are there any restrictions on past hostesses ordering during a new party?

Past hostesses can order during a new party without restrictions, but they must do so as a guest. Their previous host status does not limit their ability to take advantage of current promotions or host specials.

How can a past hostess maximize their benefits when ordering during a new party?

A past hostess can maximize their benefits by placing an order during a new party to help the current hostess achieve her sales goals. Additionally, they should inquire about any current promotions or specials that they can take advantage of while ordering.
