Hi there! Welcome to the pampered chef family! Yes, there is such a thing as past hostess shipping. It is a great way for our hosts to receive discounted shipping on their orders from a party they have hosted in the past. As long as she was listed as the host of the party when it was booked, she should automatically receive the discounted shipping rate on her order through Pampered Partner. If she has any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. Happy cooking!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pampered Chef Hostess Shipping Process?
The Pampered Chef Hostess Shipping Process involves the shipping of products purchased during a party hosted by a consultant. Once the party closes, the consultant submits the order, and the products are shipped directly to the hostess or the guests, depending on the shipping preferences set during the order process.
How long does it take for products to be shipped to the hostess?
Typically, products are shipped within 7 to 10 business days after the party closes and the order is submitted. However, shipping times may vary based on product availability and the shipping method selected.
Can the hostess choose where the products are shipped?
Yes, the hostess can choose to have the products shipped directly to her home or to individual guests who placed orders during the party. This preference can be specified during the checkout process.
Are there any shipping costs for the hostess?
Shipping costs may apply depending on the total amount of the order. Pampered Chef often provides free shipping on orders over a certain amount, so it's beneficial for hostesses to encourage guests to combine orders to reach that threshold.
What should a hostess do if there are issues with shipping?
If there are any issues with shipping, such as delays or incorrect items, the hostess should contact her Pampered Chef consultant immediately. The consultant can assist in resolving the issue with customer service to ensure that the hostess and guests receive their orders correctly and promptly.
