I have a guest that sent the email invites directly from the host website to 14 people and not one has viewed. This seems pretty weird as these are her friends and family that she keeps in contact with through email and the invites were sent Sunday. I haven't contacted HO to see if there may have been a problem. Any suggestions? Should we just resend or can HO tell me if there was a problem? I was really hoping this would be a successful catalog show!:)
 
They may be getting dumped into SPAM folders. Encourage your host to call each persona on the ophone to tell them abotu the show as well.

Thanks-I just talked to my host and she said she was getting error messages when she sent them so who knows if they got there. I suggested she send a personal email to her list and just let them know what is going on. Those email invites are awesome when they work-not so much when they don't!
 
I was working with an evite the other day and sent two...one to each of my email addresses. One came and the other STILL hasn't arrived! Sent over 24 hours ago. It's not in my spam folder.

I had a consultant send me an email through my website the other day while she was at work....that was Monday....NEVER came either.

Well that's not okay! Does anyone know what's going on? I want my website (if/when I get it) to be a help, not a hindrance!
 
Not a clue. I think some ISP's just have really stringent spam filtering and I'm not sure if you can do much about it to MAKE them go through from your PWS. What I do is send an invite to myself and then forward to my host. She can then forward to her guests without having to retype their names/addresses. So far, haven't have complaints about guests not getting the invites this way. AND it gives me the change to futher customize the invite for the show.
You can always call HO and talk with tech support. They have always been helpful when I've called.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I didn't receive the email invitation from my Pampered Chef PWS?

If you didn't receive the email invitation, first check your spam or junk folder to ensure it didn't get filtered there. If it's not there, confirm with the sender that they used the correct email address. You can also ask them to resend the invitation.

Why are my guests not receiving the email invitations from my Pampered Chef PWS?

There could be several reasons why your guests are not receiving the email invitations. They may have provided an incorrect email address, their email provider may be filtering the invitation as spam, or there could be a temporary issue with their email service. Encourage them to check their spam folder and verify their email address.

How can I resend an email invitation from my Pampered Chef PWS?

To resend an email invitation, log into your Pampered Chef PWS and navigate to the party or event you want to resend the invitation for. Look for the option to manage guests or send invitations, and select the guests you want to resend the invitation to. Follow the prompts to resend the email.

What if my email invitation from Pampered Chef PWS is bouncing back?

If your email invitation is bouncing back, it may be due to an incorrect email address or the recipient's inbox being full. Double-check the email address for any typos and ask the recipient to clear some space in their inbox if necessary. You can also try sending the invitation from a different email account.

Is there a way to track if my email invitations from Pampered Chef PWS were opened?

Unfortunately, Pampered Chef PWS does not currently offer a built-in feature to track email opens. However, you can follow up with your guests directly to confirm if they received and opened the invitation. This can help you gauge interest and encourage attendance.
