Hi all!
I am in the process of setting up my PWS and having a difficult time coming up with a catchy name. My full name is a little hard for people to remember. I want something simple and easy for people to remember. Any suggestions??? :confused:
 
A number of people have used things along the line of "angiecooks", using you as an example. Try a few varieties of things like that - type in the pamperedchef.biz/ followed by whatever names you're trying, to see if they're available!
 
I just used my first name followed by my last initial. I figured that someone probably already had my first name so I just stuck with that.

My full name is Angela Saindon and that isnt easy to remember so I was looking for something a bit catchy KWIM?
 
Everything catchy I liked was taken at the time so I just used my initials...short, easy and easy to fit on business cards or marketing materials.
 
just remember to make it simple for people to remember -that is the most important thing

biz/angela isn't taken
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a PWS Addy and why is it important?

A PWS Addy, or Personal Web Site Address, is the unique URL that directs customers to your personal Pampered Chef website. It is important because it serves as your online storefront, making it easy for customers to find and purchase products, learn about promotions, and access recipes. A memorable and effective PWS Addy can enhance your marketing efforts and improve customer engagement.

How can I choose a memorable PWS Addy?

To choose a memorable PWS Addy, consider using your name, a catchy phrase, or a combination of both that reflects your personality or cooking style. Aim for something short, easy to spell, and easy to remember. Avoid using numbers or special characters that could confuse potential customers.

Should I include keywords in my PWS Addy?

Yes, including relevant keywords in your PWS Addy can help with search engine optimization (SEO) and make it easier for potential customers to find you online. Consider incorporating words related to cooking, kitchen, or Pampered Chef products to attract more visitors to your site.

Can I change my PWS Addy later if I don’t like it?

Yes, you can change your PWS Addy later if you find that it’s not working for you or if you want to rebrand yourself. However, be aware that changing your URL may affect your existing marketing materials and links, so it’s best to choose wisely from the start.

What are some examples of effective PWS Addys?

Effective PWS Addys often include a combination of personal branding and keywords. Examples might include "ChefSarahCooks" or "CookingWithJohnPC." These examples are memorable, easy to spell, and give a clear indication of what customers can expect when they visit the site.
