HOME SHOWS - Hostess Benefits
By Nancy Ann Wartman

There are several parts to our hostess plan. It may seem overwhelming at first, but once you get used to it the pieces will fall into place. The company has given us quite a bit to work with.

Merchandise Allowance - Free books based on retail sales of show, not including tax and shipping. See chart on left side of Hostess Books flyer. For up to 20 shows (of at least $250) turned in within your first 12 weeks, you may DOUBLE THE MERCHANDISE ALLOWANCE (free books) for hostesses, if she has at least 1 booking from her show to be held within 4 weeks!

Special Date Credit - $5.00 more free books for the hostess when their show is held within 3 weeks from when they booked it. This is listed on the Free Books chart.

Hostess Books - $25.00 more books available for you to use to build your business any way you would like to, with minimum home show of $85. They cost you 35% of the value of the books selected. You may use this if you desire.

1/2 Price Books - For every $100. in home show sales there are $25.00 worth of books available to the hostess at half price. For example, with a show of $329. the hostess could select up to $75. in books at half price, if she wishes to.

Booking Special - For each show booked off a hostess that is held within 3 weeks, the original hostess can get $20 worth of books for 75% off at the new show, if she wants to. These are to be ordered with the new show.

Bonus Book - If a hostess has 3 shows of at least $85. that are booked and held off of her show, at the 3rd show she may select any book in the catalog for free. This costs you 35% of the value of the book. She has done so much for your business with her show, 3 shows held off of hers and all the leads from those shows, she’s worth that thank you gift!

I highly recommend using OrderPro to write up your orders, as it will do all your calculations for you!  :-)  You just select which type of books your ordering (those as retail books, merchandise allowance, hostess books, etc...)
