That carry over is for promos like Sell a Thon. For qualifying and commissions, you have until the end of the month. Period. 30- and 90- day new consultant periods are based on the date in the initial letter from HO. Sales quotas for staying active are due last day of the month.laylaleigh said:
Waiting for the host to close your 4th show means that you are waiting for the host to finalize the orders and complete the transaction for the show. This is an important step in the direct sales process, as it allows you to receive your commission and ensures that all orders are processed correctly.
The time it takes for a host to close a show can vary, but it usually ranges from a few days to a week after the show has ended. It depends on the host's schedule and how quickly they can gather the necessary information to finalize the orders.
If your host is taking longer than expected to close the show, it's a good idea to reach out to them politely. You can check in to see if they need any assistance or if there are any issues that are causing the delay. Communication is key in ensuring a smooth closing process.
Generally, you will not receive your commission until the host has officially closed the show. However, once the show is closed, your commission will be calculated and processed. It's important to encourage your host to close the show as soon as possible to avoid any delays in your earnings.
If the host decides not to close the show, it may result in the cancellation of orders and the inability to process commissions. In this case, you should discuss the situation with your host to understand their reasons and see if there is a way to encourage them to proceed with closing the show.
Got th other one to finally close after hounding her for a week! I hate when hosts lag!
