Wait .. what is this? This might be what I have been looking for.

I have a group of ladies who wish to make a cash donation to Help Whip Cancer (no show, no purchases, just cash) .. is this where I would 'make their donation'? And if I'm reading what you wrote John, we get credit for it as well?

 

I need more info too, please.
Thanks!

 

Just go to CC, Promoting your Business, Charitable Giving, HWC and you'll see it.

 

There are sites like Tiny URL that will make a shorter web address for you to share.

 

Thanks for the heads up!

 

Here's a question. If I create a Tiny URL, am I against P&P to post it on my FB profile? According to the sign up page, anyone can sign up to be a team, even if they're not a consultant.

 

Ann, I noticed you set one up. Do you get to customize what it says when people click on the link? On the general page that we as consultants first go to, it talks about the pink products and the $1 contribution, etc--but the link that others click on, it doesn't mention those, just the mention of Pampered Chef donating to ACS?

 

Amanda, I just signed up, and yes, there is a link to edit (although I'm haven't been too successful yet, but I'm also at work).

John - There is a spot on the right in your Participant Center, under the Update Goal button where you can update your personal URL.

ETA, ok so I can't figure out how to edit the text, but if you click on the "Personal Fundraisers" link at the top of the page, you'll get to that page with the info about the products, and the list of the top participants.

 

Amanda, there's a link to "my participant center" there, where the ACS probably has something set up so that you can edit the text.

Noora, I posted the link on FB. I figure it's a link to an ACS page, not my PWS. And while the page talks about PC, it doesn't say that I'm a consultant.

 

Holy Smokes! I did a combo Host Your Own Cooking Show (did not get the call ) and Help Whip Cancer Show today at my office during lunch. One of my co-workers asked if she could donate to ACS and not buy anything. I said sure, I will send you the link to donate on line (Thanks Chef Success Folks for reminding me about this yesterday!!). She donated $100 - wahoo! What a fabulous surprise. Now I am inspired to get more donations and sales. ​

 

So, does the initial $25 cost count towards the donations? If not, what is it for???

 

It does count toward the donations. I think it's so they don't get people who aren't serious signing up for the site. Bandwidth isn't free.

I left the goal on mine at $1000, and it shows that I'm at 3%, which is the $25.

 

I set mine up today and just sent out over 2000 emails from my contacts over the years. A family friend died yesterday from breast cancer, and I felt like I needed to do anything I could to help beat this horrible disease! I also have 4 shows this month, 2 of the hosts are breast cancer survivors.

Of course, I've gotten snotty responses already (delete me, who are you, etc.) - even though I mentioned my friend died yesterday!

I don't care, for all of those crabby people, there are plenty who will donate and help, so I'm going for at least $1000. If we all raised $1000, just think how much we'd be helping!!!

 

Ok, I set up my page. Now, where do I send people to to donate? I want to put it in my newsletter. Can I do that?
TIA,
Jane
