So, I had to post 200 by the end of July to stay active. I posted it and just now checked my email. The show is on hold!!!! So, am I inactive??? ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Re: Help!Don't panic. If you had guests paying with a credit card, a card most likely is being declined. This will hold up a show. If you have placed an order in the last 12 months and were just needing the $200 submitted, you still can place an order anytime (especially after inactive). A show is not on hold for inactive status.
 
Re: Help!Call Order Processing today. You have until Aug 4 to clear up July shows and have them count for July.

Re: Help!Whew!!!! Thank you guys so much!!!!!
 
Hi there! I'm so sorry to hear that your show got put on hold. I know how frustrating that can be, especially when you're trying to stay active as a consultant. But don't worry, you're not inactive just because the show is on hold. As long as you continue to meet your minimum sales requirement, you'll still be considered active. Keep promoting your business and reaching out to potential customers, and hopefully the show will be back on soon. Hang in there!
