Some of you have said that you make your own business cards on your computer instead of ordering them from the vendor. Are we allowed to use the pc logo if we make our own?

Thanks!

I'm not sure, but would rather doubt it. I've worked for other companies in the past and we were allowed to put down Indpendent Consultant but not allowed to use the Company's title or name. Some do but I'd becareful and usually just buy a box of bus. cards.

Another option to check = vista print. or vistaprint. www.vistaprint.com They print free bus. cards. and I believe you can use the Company's name (not sure, but check it out) and all you have to pay is s/h. Very inexpensive. However, I like the new PC cards with the option to have your pic right on the card.

Good Luck.

As long as we use the complete logo as downloaded from the PC website we can use it on business cards and flyers we create and print from our own computers and of course we can make copies.

We can NOT give the logo to ANY printer and have them do the cards.

We can NOT use the tag line or the hat on their own in any flyer or printed material.

As far as Vista Prints' free cards: We can say the words "Pampered Chef" on them but we must include our title "Suzy Consultant Independent Consultant for The Pampered Chef". We can NOT use the tag line, the hat or the logo. That company knows the "rules" about copyrights too. ;)

See the guidelines at consultant's corner.

re: bus cardsThanks so much for clarifying. I hadn't had a chance to read all the info yet, but figured it would be close to others. Nice to know we are allowed to use Pampered Chef Consultant on cards made by us. None of my other company's had allowed this (Although some cns still did it).

I had thught Vista Print had PC but when I went to check I didn't see any.

Thanks again;

Hello everyone,I saw some of you discussing making your own business cards on your computer instead of ordering them from the vendor. I wanted to chime in and clarify that as a Pampered Chef consultant, we are not allowed to use the PC logo on any self-made materials. This includes business cards, flyers, and any other promotional materials.Using the PC logo on self-made materials is a violation of our consultant agreement and could potentially lead to disciplinary action. It's important to represent our brand accurately and professionally, and using the official materials provided by the company is the best way to do so.If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you for understanding and let's continue to rock our businesses the right way!Best,
