Hi, I am a newbie... Consultant years ago before PWS... I haven't hit my
1250, but I want to set up a website. Am I correct in assuming, that hosts can send evites, I can receive outside orders from shows, and organize and advertise- but I am just unable to receive individual orders, wedding registry, and outlet orders? Thanks in advance!

Thanks:chef:
 
I purchased my web subscription and set it up before I qualified even though my director told me that I should wait until I had met the goal to get the free 90 day subscription. I later found out that if you purchase your subscription before being eligible to receive the free 90 days, they will actually add the 90 days to the end of your subscription, so you don't lose that benefit.
 
This is a reminder: do not link to your PWS here. I've seen many members here who have their PWS address listed in their profile, which creates a link. That is against policy. HO does monitor this site, so please don't do it. (This reminder isn't aimed at anyone specific who has posted in this thread, it's just a general reminder.)
