I'm doing my first fundraiser, and want to be able to tell them how soon they can expect a check. Thanks!
 
I believe HO mails it within a couple weeks of shipping the products.

Thanks, Ann!
 
No prob!
:)

I hope it's successful for you and the orgranization!
 
Good Luck girl!
I just submitted one and they had their check the next week - about the same turnaround time as the orders from a show. :)
 
The one I did in Sept was quick. Had the products one week and the check the next.
 
I need to pick some brains!! My children's school is having a "craft fair" (first annual) Vendors are supposed to donate product for a raffle and donate 15% of sales. Will be perfect if sales are over $600. However today (4 days before) I was told to bring a check to write to the school at the end of the evening. I told them no, PC would write them a check and they need to know when.Here's my question, should I just do this as a normal kitchen show, write my 15% check and get paid "normal" commission?? Or fight to get them to take it as a fundraiser???
 
I would fight it; by the time you write them a check and donate a doorprize you're basically doing this for free. It all depends on how much its worth to you. I know people who do fundraisers and give their whole commission on top of what PC gives.
 
Just did a fundraiser.Products where delivered on Friday (nov 10), check came Monday (nov 13).
 
No I would fight it as a fundraiser..I'm just thinking if you write a check God forbid but what if you don't make any sales or if sales are small??!!! Your coming out of pocket for no return! I did a fundraiser & had NO SALES it was for a benefit for a kid that was struck by lightning all the vendors were asked to pay $25 for booth setup thats all but I got no returns a few maybe shows & contacts but that's all! And turns out the organizer told me the mother whos son was hurt was a total B*&%H! she wanted to use the $$ for personal stuff rather then report it to the attorney in charge of the benefit bank account that was to pay medical bills!!!!
 
I had the check before the product. This week, the check came on Monday, and the rest of the boxes cam eon Tuesday.
 
i did a fundraiser and submitted it. the products came today. was i supposed to give HO tax info or something on the organization?
 
I do a lot of fundraisers and the host usually gets the check about the same time the products arrive at their door.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly does Pampered Chef pay its consultants after a sale?

Pampered Chef typically processes commission payments to consultants within 1-2 weeks after the end of the month in which the sales were made. This means that if you make a sale in January, you can expect to see your commission in your account by mid-February.

Are there any fees associated with receiving payments from Pampered Chef?

There are no fees for receiving commission payments from Pampered Chef. Payments are made directly to your bank account or through a prepaid debit card, depending on your preference, without any additional charges.

Do consultants receive immediate payment for party sales?

No, consultants do not receive immediate payment for party sales. Commissions are calculated at the end of the month, and payments are issued after that period. This allows for any returns or adjustments to be accounted for before commissions are finalized.

Can consultants track their earnings in real-time?

Yes, Pampered Chef provides consultants with access to an online portal where they can track their sales, commissions, and overall earnings in real-time. This helps consultants stay informed about their income and sales performance.

What happens if a customer returns a product?

If a customer returns a product, the commission for that sale will be deducted from the consultant's earnings in the following commission cycle. This ensures that consultants are only paid for sales that are finalized and not subject to returns.
