Okay I'm confused...I was told that hosts can use some of their free product value towards their kit...correct? but I was also told they have up to 6 months to do so...how does that work? if you are submitting their show with a week of show. :confused:

They can use either $20 or $40 of their free product value toward their kit. Use the hour glass to locate it on the host order screen. They have 6 months to use it or it is gone. If they decide not to do PC they can can call PC and order products with it.
 
I thought that once you turned in the order the host lost what ever benefits he/she earned but did not use.

But that's not the case, huh? Hmmm....thanks for sharing that.
 
I have never looked at that. Are you saying that the kit credit will be listed just like a product in the order form? If that is what you mean then they are using it therefore they can't lose it. And, if they change their mind it is handled kind of like a return/exchange. Am I getting it right?
 
It is listed like a productThe numbers are 5228 for the $40 credit and 5227 for the $20 credit.
If you click on the Magnifing glass on the host's order, you will find those numbers listed. Makes it easy!

That's right, but if they use the credit for a kit credit and change their mind they can "exchange it" just like if they bought a product they didn't end up wanting.
 
Kit Credit.Ordering a kit to be a consultant is done separately from the Host's show. You submit the show with the appropriate Item # for the kit credit. Which essentially spends the FPV. It does not carry over. The host should wait for a day or so and then they can go online to order their kit. They are using the FPV not holding it over. When they fill out the online form it asks them if they have a kit credit and if so how much it is for. It then subtracts the kit credit from the $90 kit cost.

But as Beth said if they decide they don't want to be a consultant they can call HO and spend the $$ on products.

Hope that explains it a little better.
