Ok, so I have another lady who wants to join, but I have heard so many things that now I am scared. She doesn't have/want a kit credit so when I enter her agreement online that orders the kit, right? Do I have to do something else to get the kit if she isn't connected to a show? I need to call her tomorrow because her CC didn't go through for some reason, but I wanted to be sure that once I had the right number that I was finished and her kit would be ordered. Also, I put her SS1 as October, is that right? TIA!
 
Yes, paying for the kit orders it. It comes in about a week.

If you put her SS1 as October, she has all Sept. and Oct. to count towards the SS1 bonuses. But if she signed by Aug. 31 and qualifies by Sept. 30, she still gets the knives and you the Home Depot card.

My first recruit did this and got her box yesterday. She has a son getting married at the end of Oct, so we did this so she can qualify in Sept. and take Oct. off if she likes without penalty. HTH!
 
Gillian,
It will ask if she has a kit credit, just click no! Then proceed, when you finish and enter the cc number she's signed up and the kit will come.

Thanks for clearing that up! So let me get this straight:
If they DON'T have a kit credit you can enter it online as soon as they agree.
If they DO have a kit credit you have to wait until the show leaves HO to enter the agreement.

Is that right??
 
Wrong, look on consultants corner it shows what number is needed. I signed someone using the kit credit and I think you just have to wait for them to process it.
 
Here I just copied and pasted the info for you. You just have to wait till the show is processed to enter the kit credit.

Recruiter's Information
How to Help Your Recruit Complete the Online Consultant Agreement

Your recruits can submit their agreements online at the end of your recruiting interview for speedy delivery of their Super Starter kits! Ideally, you'll be meeting in person, and can complete the online agreement together. However, if distance prevents you from meeting face-to-face, be sure to provide your recruits with the following information before they start the online Consultant Agreement.

With your help, they'll be able to quickly complete the agreement and be on their way to holding their first Cooking Shows! The Super Starter kit will be shipped according to their first Super Starter month.

The online Consultant Agreement is found on our public Web site at www.pamperedchef.com in the Come Join Us section.

Be sure your new Consultant has the following information to complete the agreement:


The recruiter's name and Consultant number
Social Security number (SSN) or Individual Tax ID number (ITIN)
Quick Start box information
(Applies only if recruit received a Quick Start box.)
Host kit credit information: Credit amount and Show number
(Applies only if recruit is applying Show points toward kit credit.)
Note: The Home Office must have processed the Show before the kit credit can be applied.
Credit Card Information for kit payment: The Pampered Chef accepts Visa®, MasterCard® and Discover®/Novus®
The first six Cooking Show dates
Note: Potential Consultants submitting an online agreement must fill out the information and click the I ACCEPT button themselves because a Consultant Agreement is between the company and the recruit.

Thanks!! I don't want to jinx myself, but for some reason I am beating recruits off with a stick!! I just had another lady e-mail me (I met a TON of people at the fair shift I worked at) who filled out a slip but didn't even say maybe to a show or info about the biz. She now wants to hold a show to get the kit credit. That is my third in two days with more calls to make!

I got my first OFFICIALLY signed up today! I had her ex. date wrong, then it went through just fine! I have three other people teetering on the edge right now. I am trying to shove them off the fence without appearing pushy! It isn't going so well...
 
Way to go! I have two sisters I will be meeting with! Cross your fingers for me!
 
That is fantastic. Wow.

I am hoping! I have one def. yes, one def no, and two sitting on the fence. I also have 15 more people to talk to (left messages) about the opportunity. The def yes that I have will NEVER qualify though. I know that is horrible to say, but there is NO way it will happen!

I am trying to give her the "Scottie Brister" treatment and get her qualified before her kit gets to her, but she keeps saying she can't buy anything yet. I have explained to her that she is selling the products and she says she knows, but I am not so sure she understands. She practically wrote kitnapper on her drawing slip!

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do first when entering a new recruit into the system?

First, ensure that you have all the necessary information about your new recruit, including their full name, contact details, and any relevant personal information. Then, log into your consultant portal and navigate to the section for adding new recruits. Follow the prompts to enter their information accurately.

How can I ensure my new recruit receives their starter kit on time?

To ensure timely delivery of the starter kit, make sure that the recruit's information is entered correctly and promptly in the system. After entering their details, confirm that the order for the starter kit has been processed and check the estimated delivery date. Encourage your recruit to track their order through the provided shipping information.

What if my new recruit has questions about their enrollment?

If your new recruit has questions about their enrollment, encourage them to reach out to you directly for assistance. You can also direct them to the official Pampered Chef resources, such as the consultant training materials or the FAQ section on the website, where they can find additional information.

Can I enter multiple recruits at once, or do I need to do it one at a time?

Typically, you will need to enter each recruit individually in the system. However, check if your consultant portal has an option for bulk entry or a similar feature that allows you to streamline the process. If not, take your time to ensure each recruit's information is accurate as you enter them one by one.

What should I do if I encounter an error while entering a new recruit?

If you encounter an error while entering a new recruit, double-check the information you have inputted for any mistakes. If the error persists, consult the help section of the consultant portal for troubleshooting tips. You can also reach out to your upline or Pampered Chef support for assistance in resolving the issue.
