If I don't get my butt in gear, I'm going to go inactive at the end of this month. But now I'm having a panic attack because I can't remember the policy... do I need an order totaling $200 or just $200 in sales? I have someone at work that wants some things from the catalog AND from the outlet and a few other random orders. The items from the current catalog from all these people will only be about $150 or so, but the outlet order will be about $75 or so. All said and done, it will be more than $200... am I safe or do I need to come up with another $50 and submit a show with $200 in sales?
 
It's $200 in commissionables sales every consecutive two-month period. F-14 in recipe for success.
 
$200 in sales Kaite - relax - you can do it...sell some stoneware at 20% off!

Yes you can! I sent a mass email to my contacts for the stoneware sale this month and got over $200 enough for a show!;) But I added an additional 10% OFF:rolleyes: .

Trust me, I've been trying. My biggest stoneware customers either just bought stuff before Christmas or are having shows of their own in the next few months and don't want to spend the $$ now.

I thought it was just $200 in sales, but then had a brain-dead moment and started doubting myself and just needed someone else to confirm what I already knew! Thank you, my fellow cheffers!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need $200 in total orders or just one single order of $200 to stay active?

You need to have a total of $200 in personal sales within a specific period to stay active. This can be achieved through multiple orders, not just one single order of $200.

What happens if I don’t reach the $200 in orders?

If you do not reach the $200 in personal sales, you may become inactive. This means you will not be able to earn commissions or bonuses until you reactivate your account by meeting the sales requirement.

Can I combine orders from different customers to reach the $200 requirement?

Yes, you can combine orders from different customers to reach the $200 requirement. All personal sales count towards your total, so feel free to gather orders from multiple sources.

Is there a specific time frame to reach the $200 in orders?

Yes, there is usually a specific time frame, often monthly or quarterly, depending on your agreement with Pampered Chef. Be sure to check your consultant guidelines for the exact time frame applicable to you.

What if I have a $200 order but it gets canceled?

If a $200 order gets canceled, it will not count towards your sales total. You will need to generate additional sales to meet the $200 requirement and maintain your active status.
