Ordering from Canada: Can I Help?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

When placing orders across the U.S.-Canada border, it is advisable for Americans to connect Canadian customers with local consultants. This is due to significant differences in shipping costs, handling fees, and currency exchange rates. The discussion highlights the challenges faced by U.S. consultants, particularly those without a personal website (PWS), in processing orders for Canadian clients. Direct shipping can be prohibitively expensive, making local assistance the most efficient option.

Can someone do a catalog show or place a personal order if they are in canada and im in the states? I met a lady from canada, and i didnt know if i could take an order or if i should connect her with some one in canada. i do not have pws anymore..
 
Not unless she knows some kind, benevolent person who would have the order shipped to her house and tote it over the border.Americans are supposed to buy from Americans, Canadians are supposed to buy from Canadians. The prices and catalogs are somewhat different, not to mention the difference between Canadian and U.S. dollars.Direct shipping across the border is CRAZY expensive.I only sold to one Canadian ... she was at her mom's house in Minnesota for Turkey Day. Thank goodness for PC's lightening-fast shipping because it got there before she went home to Ontario! Oh, and mom was so impressed that she booked a catalog host!
 
Hi there! As an pampered chef consultant, I can offer some advice on your situation. Generally, if you are in the United States and the person you met is in Canada, it would be best to connect them with someone in Canada to place their order. This is because each country may have different shipping and handling fees, as well as currency exchange rates, that could affect the final cost of the order. Additionally, if you no longer have access to a personal website (PWS), it may be difficult for you to process the order yourself. It is always best to err on the side of caution and connect the person with a consultant in their own country who can assist them with their order. Hope this helps!
