Ok, I must be SLOW, but it just dawned on me as I was looking at the Feb Host info and updating my website that with the February Host Special, the host will receive 2 items at 60% - including the DCB!! (Even TWO of them, one each color!) Usually, to get that one, you have to achieve a higher sales level, but that doesn't appear to be the case!I think that is a first! Cool! That will certainly be a great selling point for booking Feb. shows.I plan on looking up past hosts and guests who have purchased stones or metal bakeware and ask them if they would like to "add to their collection"!Just thought I'd point that out, in case anyone else like me overlooked that detail. :D
 
The DCB is in the "lets talk promotions" on CC. I put the blurb in my newsletter that will be sent out that you can get the DCB for $34 for hosting a show. I know.... AWESOME!

Duh! I keep thinking it's $38 but you are right! It's $34. Cool!

Do we know for sure that they can order two DCB's as long as they are different colors? Is it written anywhere?
 
They can only order one of each item ... but the taupe and cranberry are 2 different item numbers.
 
Ok I have 2 hosts from a party that was done monday night....they both want the DCB and I told them that they could only get 1 at 60% off b/c I thought they couldn't get 2. Now I'm confused. Is P3 set up to not allow you to add things if its not allowed (if that makes since?)...ok just tried that and it lets you put 2 of the same DCB's (but this is not allowed, right). Oh im so confused.

A red dot usually appears if you put in more than allowed of a special.
 
So they CAN order two DCB's!!!!!!!! I tried to put in each cranberry and taupe and it worked (no red dot)! Oh my hosts are going to be thrilled!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Make sure they know the EXACT Amount, not just 60% off. They may not be quick with math. ;) Speak dollars and cents language to them.
 
Mom said yes, dollars and cents and money talks to most people. In fact she is gonna try for it too as she has a catalog and three weddings this year!

Melissa that is awesome. So far I've got nothin - but then again, I have not taken it out of my comfort zone. Only people in my e-mail lists. I need to get on the phone and make contact! "Shows don't just happen. You gotta make them happen!"
