    Well Done Johanne! Due to my dodgy start to this campaign I'm not gonna have enough books/time to get round all my territory but orders have gone over £200 today :T Still have 5 orders to deliver and no ones home :mad:

  • I don't know slough too well, one was in sl6 and the other was sl2. I also had one in windsor.

    The 3 I did yesterday I had 2 in banbury and 1 in leighton buzzard, all went really well, in fact, one of my ladies emailed me this morning to say she has collected £112 of orders in just 2 days! I was shocked and happy! :D

    I bought all of the leads from flissys! Only 2 that I have purchased I haven't had any luck with, all the others signed up!

    Good luck!

    just went back out and door knocked... retrieved another 12 books.... so thats 21 back from 29 i put out .... rest i'll call back on sunday see if i can retrieve them cos i know one lady wanted more time.

    Whilst i was collecting this morning someone pulled up in a car and said shed pass me the order later... well as i didnt know where she lived i just knocked at the addresses left on my list - found her and blooming glad i did! a £47 order! :shocked: :shocked:

    Which takes me up into 25% commission zone! And i still have some family orders to come and another 125 houses i can possibly still canvas!! :D Good start but realise it might not be like this all the time... but im happy for the good start! :p

    Wow well done! See all that worrying and its going real well - good for you!!

    No men as yet, and I was willing to travel up to an hour as long as I had more than 1, so I had 3 in slough all on the same day - luckily, and again on the same day for my 2nd appt and that is 1hr away, and again 2 in banbury - 40mins and 1 in leighton buzzard - 20 mins. Trying to get more local ones now though, as I dont have as much petrol money left this month.

    Be as nosey as ya like! That's what this board is for! :p

    BTW the best way to find out how far it is, is to use google maps.

    http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&tab=wl

    Click on 'get directions' then type in your post code at point A, then type the first part of the post code from flissys in part B and voila it tells you how long it will take you to drive there, and its pretty accurate. I do that with all different postcodes, sometimes you are surprised how many are closer than you think.

    I just saved myself loads of time by printing out my order form details on the computer! Yey! :j It looks really neat and professional and it only took 10 minutes to print out like 100 order forms - it would take me about 4 hours to write - new bond girl perfume etc. in the box, name, number, delivery date, brochure no, by hand! Gift it a try if you have a good printer!
