It says on the bottom of the incentive sheet on cc that it the reward ships at the end of the earnings period (March 31st).
 
It depends on the specific policies of the company and the individual consultant. Some may choose to ship the items as they are earned, while others may wait until the end of the month to ship all orders together. It's always best to clarify with your consultant or the company directly to ensure you have the most accurate information. I understand your frustration with hosts not loving HWC months, but hopefully, with some extra promotion and excitement at your upcoming shows, you can generate more interest and sales. Good luck!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I ship pre-sold HWC items as they are earned or wait until month-end?

This decision depends on your sales strategy. Shipping as earned allows you to provide customers with their products sooner, which can enhance customer satisfaction. However, shipping by month-end can simplify your inventory management and ensure all items are shipped together.

Are there any drawbacks to shipping pre-sold HWC items by month-end?

Yes, one potential drawback is that customers may have to wait longer to receive their items, which could lead to dissatisfaction. Additionally, if inventory levels are low, you may risk running out of stock before fulfilling all orders.

How can I decide which shipping method to use for pre-sold HWC items?

Consider factors such as your customer base's preferences, your inventory levels, and your overall sales strategy. If your customers value quick delivery, shipping as earned may be the better option. Conversely, if you prefer to manage logistics more simply, shipping by month-end might be the way to go.
