I have a host for a show on Sunday - She has at least one guest that is the same as a show for my sister. I have not dated that show yet - Should I book it under my sister? Sunday's host has expressed some interest in the business opp but hasn't gone to a cluster meeting even though she has been invited twice and since I live near her I have even offered to pick her up.
Sunday's host has also posted an Avon Open House at her house for all weekend. Our community is having an Open House too I didn't post my HWC Open House because she is doing a show on Sunday at her house.
 
So you are about to close your sister's show? Or are you saying book your sister's future show off this show for Sunday to give the Sunday host the booking benefit. I think I am confused.

I would book it to give as much benefits to everyone as possible. I have found that makes happy return loyal customers.
 
I have double & even triple booked several guests that have attended more than one show but did not set up firm dates. Then when they finally set up a firm date, I start with the 1st host they "booked under" and ask if they want to buy the host special and if not then I go on to the 2nd... and 3rd hosts. I figure why not, they've attended shows, bought product, and this lets the host that will actually use the special be eligible.
