i know your not aloud to post on your facebook or myspace etc your website but can you post that you are a independent consultant for pampered chef?
 
No- but you can say something like I love using great kitchen tools and I know you would too. Ask me how to acquire them! :) Or something snappier than that! LOL
 
That is a very good question? Is there anyone on here that can answer that? I would also like to put that I'm a consultant on my Facebook, so all my friends know.
 
nope, can't say you are an independant consultant for PC. :(
 
Can you say that you are a cooking consultant?
 
I removed my PC connections on Facebook but feel comfortable saying I represent a major kitchen products company and would love to help anyone discover their culinary expertise within through a quick and fun live cooking show experience. (not that I've done it -- I need to procrastinate a while...)
 
This is what I put on my facebook:"Employer:Myself
Position:Selling Great Kitchen Tools
Time Period:April 2008 - Present
Location:Rochester, NY
Description:Selling great products, meeting great people, making great food that is easy to prepare and getting a few nights out so I appreciate those in my main line of work. If you are interesting in having a party and getting some great products for free let me know :)Want more information? Email me!"I changed it after I realized that I wasn't supposed to say what I actually do. Do you think that this is OK??
 
You're pretty much fine as long as you (a) don't put your website address and (b) don't mention Pampered Chef by name. I believe the purpose of that is to keep your info from coming up if someone does a search for PC.
 
There are so many FB groups where people have not only mentioned they are a consultant but include their consultant #. I hope this is adjusted or lifted soon. I want the WORLD to know I sell PC.
