Ok, my cousin called me and said she would like to have a house warming party for her cousin (on the other side of her family), because her house burnt down right before Christmas. Now, my cousin wants the show sent in, in her name because her discount is getting ready to expire, but wants her cousin to get all the free stuff. I was telling her how guests could order online now and the hostess can still get the credit. Now, can I still set that up under the other girls name and not my cousin's? Since those orders have to be entered by me into Pampered Partner, it doesn't matter right? Also, is there a way to set up a registery for her? I've never done a Bridal registery or anything, so I wasn't sure.

Also, anyone got any good housewarming flyers?

You could have them set as co-hosts and then they'd both get the PHD.

Oh, I never thought of that!! How do the bookings work? I've never had a co-host show before!
 
With a o-host show they split the bookings, host special, fpv and 1/2 price items. Lets say Susie books a show off of them. At her show only one of them can get the host special.
 
Set up benefitsYou have the power to set up the benefits how you want to do that. One host can get $5 and the other can get $100. It's just up to you. It will automatically deduct the FPV as you input products. It will do it all for you, even the half price items and the discount works for both and the PHD is for both.

Great!! I know the host can put her wish list on my website, but can anyone see it? Or can she register or can you only do that for Bridal shows. Sorry I am so clueless!!

I'm psychic :cool:
 
could you put her wish list on her show information? then just update it as the orders come in? I know that can be a pain, but I'm not aware of anyother way.

I probably could. Since this is my cousin's cousin I don't even know if this girl has a computer. My cousin just wanted to know if she would register online or just at the show. I will just tell her it will be at the show.

What items should I include in my gift registry?

Include essential items such as kitchenware, bedding, furniture, appliances, and personal care products. Consider adding items that hold sentimental value or that you had before the fire. It's also helpful to include gift cards to stores where you can purchase items as needed.
