Hi everyone if I dont have a website and someone orders from the main site and they use my consultant # would I still get credit for it or no?
TIA
 
No.
I don't pay for a personal website. I ask customers to call or email with their order. For outside orders for shows, they can go through the host.
 
The Pampered Chef website does not have that ability/feature. Sorry! Having them call or email their order is the best (and might I add, very efficient) way!

Thank you I wasnt sure how that worked Ive never had that happen before lol
 
Or you can have your recruiter build a show on their page with you as the host. BUT, if your guests can't follow directions & put you in as the host when the little host box pops up, your recruiter gets the sales. Ordering directly with you is the best option, but I figured I'd give you the other option too. ;)
 
If the customer has the tech savy to order online, they are capable of calling you and speaking with, or leaving a voicemail with their order details. - I'm just saying! :-0
 
The customers can browse on your website and then just e-mail you with their order. Then you can call them for their payment info.

True, but with a 2 year old & a 3 year old in the house I'm not always able to concentrate uninterrupted. Some people prefer to order when I'm sleeping too. ;)

I have an issue with this coming from personal experience....I know that if I was not able to just click a link and place my order then I won't end up ordering it. When I am rushed and I get that impulse thought that I want to get this or that for someone, I want to be able to click a few keys and be done with it...if I have to call someone or email them and wait on their response, I just won't do it. This is why I am choosing to have my PWS set up so that I can take those impulse, spur of the moment orders like that.

Just my opinion!

thanks everyone I wasnt sure how that worked or not, I plan on getting a pws but cant afford it right now I had one before but never got any orders from it lol
 
I have subscribed to the company newsletter since the beginning and each month get a show or some orders - certainly enough to pay for the website each month. It's only a few dollars more but really is a great addition. You do have to make sure you have all your contacts in place so you have lots of people who receive your newsletter.
