Confused About Host Benefits: $500 or $150 Guest Sales?

[daniellemorgan]

So if you host a show in January, the only way you can receive any benefits is by having $500 in guest sales? Is that correct? Will the show still count as long as you hit the $150 mark? Normally I'm not this confused...sorry:blushing:

The same benefits apply as a usual show. They get free stuff at each level they usually would. The bonus is when they hit $500 and they get extra free product value.

The show will still count at $150. The host can order stoneware at 20% off, and any past host can pick one piece of stoneware at 60%, but as far as host special--they've got to make it to $500. Hope that helps.

The only way a host receives the HOST SPECIAL benefits (extra free products) is by reaching $500 in sales. They still receive all of the regular host benefits of hosting a show as long as they reach at least $150 in sales. So, it's in every hosts' best interest to reach at least $500, however, they'll still get free and discounted stuff for hosting a show that is between $150 - $499. Make sense?

I'm confused as well. I thought I heard/read somewhere that if a show didn't get to $500 the host could choose 1 piece of stoneware at 60% off... but now I can't find the numbers for it. Anybody else heard this as well?

Alison-
Nope that is only the deal for the past host that the show was booked from. (the booking benefit)

That is the special past-host bonus - but on a couple different threads, people were talking about offering it to their hosts as well. (If they don't reach the $500 mark) If they did that though, it would be their own special, and they would be paying the difference.
