Hi everyone!

I am signing up with PC next week and have a question about the websites. Can I purchase my own domain name that forwards to my PC site (when I get one)?

Like if I purchased www.pamperedchefrachel.com and had it forward automatically, is that allowed?

Thanks!
 
No ma'am according to PC rules that is absolutely NOT allowed. :o) IHTH
 
I don't think so. Read your recipe for success pack. The info should be there if not contact HO.

I haven't received anything yet, that's why I wanted to ask here.

Thanks!
 
Nope! I believe that Directors and above can have a training website, but they are still not allowed to have it redirect people to their personal PC website.

Not allowed. We can only use the www.pamperedchef.biz site. Directors and above can have a website through consultants corner through which we can communicate with our team but that is the only other website allowed. The director website is not easy to navigate and is not for use with customers.

I was wondering about that!
