Fast Start Guide for Usborne Books at Home consultants

Hostess/Org Info - enter information for where you want the order shipped & select Ship to Hostess/Org

Order Type - select HP if it is being entered as a home show/home party, and check the box "hostess booked w/in 3 weeks" (that will add the special date credit of $5 to the merchandise allowance)

Select Books

Under Full Retail select books ($85 is minimum retail to be counted as a home show).

Under Merchandise Allowance, select free books. $15 in books for $85 order, etc. If you are within your Incentive period, the free book amount will be doubled after $250 in orders have been entered into full retail.

Under Hostess Incentive Books, select up to $25 in books
(65% off) (hostess incentives)

Under Booking Special, select up to $20 in books
(75% off) (previous hostess benefit)

Under Bonus Gift, select any one item number - could be a library bound or a set if you want (65% off) (a prize for a hostess' every 3rd show booked off hers)

Add any Alternate Supplies, like new catalogs, you want. (Alternate price includes shipping & is cheaper than ordering Supplies separately.)

Payment - add customer credit cards here, as well as your own credit card for remaining balance. Credit cards can be easily authorized when you add them. Don't enter anything in the "authorization number" box - OPOL will authorize the cards.

Print (you can Preview there, too) to check everything

Submit order

Tip: if you exceed the book amount anywhere, do it on Full Retail or Merchandise Allowance since those are the only two places overage gets commission and sales credit.
