Okay, I know we can't link to our website, but is there anything wrong with this? I didn't know where else to ask...sorry. Just open the attachment to see what I'm referring to. It's something I'd post on other message boards I frequent/belong to (they'd be able to see it though...not as an attachment).

SorryI don't think you can do that. You're not allowed to list the pampered chef in any of your profiles.
 
I'm pretty sure she's safe. What she has in there is no different than any of us having what we have in our signature line:
Consultant with the Pampered Chef.

Same thing... just in a jpeg form instead of typing it.
 
I copied this from policy and procedures off of The Pampered Chef website.

Other than signing up for a Pampered Chef Personal Web Site or approved vendor sites like Visual Impact Products, do not list the company name when filling out personal profiles on the Internet.

You may set up a chat room or e-mail newsgroup ONLY to communicate solely with other Pampered Chef® Consultants about the business. Please do not mention, advertise or promote your Pampered Chef business on any chat rooms, other than those created for communicating with other Consultants.


I don't believe that she can list that in any of her profiles on any other websites besides this one and others that are for consultants
 
Can you say something like "Kitchen tool specialist"?
It's not mentioning the Pampered Chef, only something that might grab interest, then if someone asks you what that means, you can send them an e-mail.

I list ...................in all my profiles that "I sell high quality kithcen tools if you are interested in what they are please ask me!!" And I leave it at that. If they are taking the time to read my profile they usually ask, and that breaks none, zip, nada of the quidelines. :D
 
Yep! You can do that!
 
Good! Because that's what I've done. May be even a good way as it sparks their interest too.
