Use:

python -m pip (command) (option)

Do not use ()

If you are using latest version of Python.

In computer properties, Go to Advanced System Settings -> Advanced tab -> Environmental Variables

In System variables section, there is variable called PATH. Append c:\Python27\Scripts (Note append, not replace)

Then open a new command prompt, try "pip"

Try navigating to ~/Python[version]/Scripts in cmd, then use pip[version] [command] [module] (ie. pip3 install themodulename or pip2 install themodulename)
