Bridal Shower Online

[kalm]

I am doing my first Bridal Shower and she wants to do it online. Does she do her gift registry as her wish list? Any ideas on how to make this a go?
Thanks!

I currently have a bride doing this. In order for her to complete a gift registry, it has to be posted on the main Pampered Chef website under "Gift Center." This is where guests can go to view her registry. They can also purchase the gift there. BUT....if you also want to make it a Pampered Bride show (all online) where she gets the host benefits as well, she will need to instruct guests to contact YOU directly (either via phone, email or your own personal website) to place an order. If they do it through the main Pampered Chef website, it can't get added to a show. I guess the disadvantage to compiling orders as a show is that she won't get any of the gifts until after the show closes.

The bride I have who's doing this doesn't mind because she'd rather get the free products and other host benefits. Does that make sense? So what I did is I had business cards printed for free through vistaprint.com and modified the text to say something like "The Pampered Chef Gift Registry" and instructions on how to look online to VIEW the bride's registry, but how to contact ME to place an order.

I hope this answers your question. THis is how I'm having the bride do a Pampered Bride show online. I did encourage her to do a real Pampered Bride show because they're so fun, but she had several showers already planned.

Pampered Bride Online

Thank you for the answer. It does help. So, if she makes out a wish list, others that go online would not be able to see it, correct? So the only way for them to view her gift registry is through the main pc webpage?...If that's true that's too bad for us as consultants, as some people probably would just order from there!

Thanks again!!

If she does make her wish list/registry on the PC website, others CAN see it. That's how they log on to see what she wants. They wouldn't be able to see a wish list through YOUR website. Even if her guests purchase items from her registry off pamperedchef.com, YOU as the consultant do get the commission for it. So, either way, we would get commission. The main difference is that if guests purchase off the main website, the orders can't be compiled and counted as a whole show so the bride gets host benefits.

Again, your answer helped..Now, for probably the obvious...she just goes to the main pc website and enters all info in under gift registry..correct?...The other I understand...and think she will probably not care if she has a show or not, but I will explain again the benefits...Thank you so much for helping.

I just entered the items from the bride's wish list myself. I'm not sure if there is a way for her to go do it. From what I can tell, the consultant has to initially set it up. WHen I set it up, I created a password for her and gave it to her. So, now she can go in and edit it herself. Good luck!

Thank you...I am all set, but I asked her to come up with password...and now have to wait to hear from her!! Should have done what you did and make it up myself!!!

Bridal Show Instructions

I have tried to download the instructions to give to brides re: registry. Does anyone do that or do they do their own and if you do what do you do???
Thank you for your help.
