The Consultant will incur the entire cost of the event.
The corporate office reserves the right to represent Pure Romance in an official capacity at any event, at any time. Corporate
presence at an event will supersede any individual Consultant or Consultant group at the event. If this occurs, the corporate
office will assume the event costs.
Consultants are only allowed approval for events during the current year. Approvals for events in the following year will be
approved up to one year of the show or on a case‐by‐case basis.
Should a Consultant miss her deadline to secure space at the event, she must re‐apply for approval with the corporate office.
Meaning, if a Consultant applies for approval but does not supply the appropriate deposit to the event provider, she cannot
block another Consultant from asking for approval for the event. The Consultant must resolve any issues within 72 hours of
the vendor deadlines. If this is not done, the corporate office may elect to provide an alternate Consultant with approval.
The Consultant must be in Good Standing status. The number of party complaints will also be reviewed upon each request.
Approval is at the discretion of the corporate office.
Event locations are subject to review by the Pure Romance corporate office. Consultants may be given approval to hold
events for certain locations with specific instructions on how to conduct the event. These will be reviewed on a case‐by‐case
basis.
If a portion of the proceeds are being donated to a charitable organization, donations must be submitted within seven to ten
business days of the event.
A Consultant who does not have approval to work an event and who is not working with a Consultant who has approval is
strictly prohibited from soliciting business at the event. This includes passing out business cards or other marketing
materials.
11.10 Event Insurance
Pure Romance does not provide event insurance coverage for any non‐corporate‐sponsored event.
Consultants are responsible for securing their own insurance should an event require it.
Individual event insurance can be acquired through:
o A Consultant’s homeowner’s or renter’s insurance provider.
o Purchasing short‐term insurance with the event coordinator.
o Contact your personal insurance agent for questions about event insurance. Any further questions can be
directed to the Corporate Office.
11.11 Displaying Product at Promotional Events
Only foreplay items, massage and bath products, lubricants, and apparel can be displayed when participating in trade shows,
bridal shows, women’s expos, etc. Phallic‐shaped items are prohibited from being displayed.
Silver Bullets and other non‐phallic‐shaped products are occasionally an exception at nightclub promotions, but only with
approval from venue management and the Pure Romance corporate office.
Materials given out at any promotion should be mild in nature. If the show director permits, the Consultant can supply a
complete catalog sealed in an envelope at a customer’s request (the recipient must be over the age of 18).
11.12 Selling Product at Promotional Events
The focus of promotional events should be booking parties and offering the business opportunity, not selling product.
However, if a visitor to a promotional event requests to purchase an item approved for display, the Consultant is permitted
to sell it.
No bedroom accessories, phallic‐shaped products, or items that use batteries may be sold at trade shows or promotional
events without corporate approval.
Consultants are permitted to fill out order forms and ship product to the customer after the event.
