Ok so I'm brand new - and was curious ...do I have to QUALIFY as a consultant before I start using the PWS and it's full benefits...? Or can I pay the fee for running the site and start using the website from the start? Does that make sense...?
 
Yep! You'll need to qualify before you can get a PWS. Get those shows in quickly and you'll be on your way! Good luck!
 
i have not qualified yet and i have mine but if you dont qualify you cant get the 3 months free at the end. also you cant collect personal orders but you can organize your shows on it and receive outside orders for shows.
 
Yes... you can get your website immediately... you sign up for it and pay for either 6 months or a year... at the end of the subscription, they will tack on the free 90 days. As soon as you qualify, you are able to start taking individual orders on your website.
 
You can get the website as soon as you sign up you just cant get individual orders or wedding registries till you qualify
 
Oops! You guys are right!

Yes, if someone wants to order specifically for a show they can. What they can't do is go and place an order outside of a show.
