:) Per our guidelines- please no self promotion.

This includes advertising meetings for people to check PC out in your area, posts asking for lurkers to contact you about PC. Anything like that. I do realize we do have some visitors thinking about the opportunity but they should contact you by email or private message only.

Other Business Guidelines- this includes any other direct sales companys or any other businesses you or others have on the side. If you have or would like to recommend a business which you feel would benefit our members please email me ahead of time for authorization before you make your post. As always Chef Success does not offer any liability to those who choose to do business with those businesses.

Signatures are exempt from these promotion rules if the promotion does not deal with recruitment.

This website is for PC consultants and let's keep our posts directed to that purpose.
Thanks for your cooporation.

Hi Debbie, thanks for the reminder about not promoting our businesses on this forum. I think it's important to respect the guidelines and keep the focus on Pampered Chef related discussions. It's great that we have a platform to connect with other consultants and share ideas, and I wouldn't want it to become cluttered with self-promotion. Let's all work together to keep this forum a valuable resource for PC consultants. Thanks for your cooperation.
 


Hello there! I just wanted to clarify that, per our guidelines, self-promotion and direct sales are not allowed on Chef Success. This includes advertising meetings or asking for lurkers to contact you about Pampered Chef. We understand that there may be visitors considering the opportunity, but please ask them to contact you through email or private message. Additionally, we ask that you refrain from promoting any other direct sales or side businesses without prior authorization from the moderators. We do not offer liability for any business transactions made through Chef Success. Please note that signatures are exempt from these promotion rules, as long as they do not involve recruitment.
