I think this question has been asked before but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Here's my question. I have a host named Tonia book a show off of Ann's show. Then at Shelly's show Tonia booked her show again. This is my question: Can both Ann and Shelly get the host special at Tonia's show since Tonia had booked her show at both parties?

I hope that's not too confusing. Thanks
 
Did Tonia hold two shows?

No, Tonia booked the same show from two different parties.
 
I'm not sure I understand....if she booked a show off of one party, why would she book it again at the next show?

I had originally thought she'd be doing two shows until she informed me she was only planning on doing one.
 
I'm not sure HO would catch it, but she really should only get the benefit from the first show.

I agree. Unless the 6 months had passed since the first show & the host wouldn't get the benefit anyway. Only the host & one past host can get the monthly bonus.
 
Only one past host can get the booking benefit - I guess they'll just have to fight it out to see who gets it! I would guess that it's only fair for the first one she booked off of to get it (unless it's been more than 6 months). Good luck with that one!
 
You can only have one past host on a show. I have had a guest book a show off of 2 different shows. During host coaching I tell her that the first host is the past host on the show but if that past host isn't interested in the monthly special we switch past hosts. Then after the show I encourage her to hold a follow up catalog show so the other past host can get a booking benefit too. (That second show can be as small as $150 - the purpose it to help her friend - and SHE gets the extra benefit of getting another special!)

Some people feel guilty helping only one friend and just need to be made aware of what is allowed.
 
Got that rightPP won't even allow you to put in two past host Specials orders anyway. It will always look for another H product number. So if Ann has one in there already, you won't even be able to put another one on for Shelly.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to have a show booked off of 2 other shows?

Having a show booked off of 2 other shows means that you have secured a new party or cooking show by leveraging the connections or referrals from two previous shows. This often occurs when guests from those shows express interest in hosting their own event.

How can I effectively book a show from two other shows?

To effectively book a show from two other shows, engage with guests during the previous shows by discussing the benefits of hosting their own party. Offer incentives, such as discounts or free products, and follow up with them after the event to remind them of the opportunity.

What are the benefits of booking shows off of previous shows?

Booking shows off of previous shows can create a domino effect, increasing your customer base and sales. It helps build relationships with clients, encourages repeat business, and can lead to more referrals, ultimately boosting your overall success in direct sales.

How do I track shows that are booked off of previous shows?

You can track shows booked off of previous shows by maintaining a detailed planner or using a digital tracking system. Record the names of hosts, dates of shows, and any relevant notes about potential future hosts to keep your pipeline organized and efficient.

What should I do if I don’t get any bookings from previous shows?

If you don’t get any bookings from previous shows, consider reaching out to guests for feedback on their experience and express your desire to help them host their own show. Additionally, you can offer special promotions or incentives to encourage bookings and keep the momentum going.
