Anyone have ideas on business cards? Can I use the Logo off Consultants. Corner to print my own business cards?
 
If you're printing them on your own computer and printer, yes. If you're getting them from a print shop or a place like VistaPrint, no.

A lot of consultants use VistaPrint for cards. You just need to make sure you include the registered trademark symbol (®) after the words "The Pampered Chef", and don't use the logo or any product photos from the PC site. You also cannot use the tag line ("Discover the chef in you") on ANY items you design or print.

Of course, the easiest thing to do is to order from Merrill - there's a link on Consultant's Corner.
 
you can use the logo from CC as long as you make them yourself. You can't give it to anyone to have things made.
 
I think you can use the logo from CC to make your own, you just can't give the logo to a printing company to have them make them for you, since only Merrill is licensed to do that. But, if you're just making them in a word document and printing them from your home printer, I think it's ok.

Here is what it says:

"The Pampered Chef® Logo:
You may include The Pampered Chef® logo in advertising and publicity as set forth below, as long as you include your name and proper title (see above). The logo is available for download from Consultant’s Corner. Click on “Promoting Your Business” and then “Advertising and Publicity Policies.” The logo may not be altered in any way."

Yes, I had bought those printable business cards from Walmart and thought I would do a temp card until I bought the nice ones from Merill. So if I print them off myself I can use the chef's hat logo and tag line with all my Independent consultant onfo?

You can't type the tagline out, but you can copy and paste the logo with the tagline in it onto your cards.
 
That's exactly right. And a good plan - use the less expensive ones until you can "spare" the cash for the "fancy" ones from Merrill.
