    With the book-munchers, I'd be tempted to leave it a campaign then the following campaign give them the previous book (do it on back order) so it doesn't matter if you don't get the book back. Saves you having to dispose of it at least ;)

  • Just viewed my invoice online (delivery due tomorrow) and have quite a few items out of stock. First time that this has happened, will pen a little apoligies note. picking up my books from first drop on terrirtory tomorrow night for C7 fingers crossed xx

    Do you put books out the week you waiting for delivery as was wondering if people still order even having to wait for longer than normal.

    Hi,

    I have been given a couple of extra days to place my campaign 6 order so I can include tonights party sales which is great BUT!

    Can I still back order? I want to order some stuff from book 5 and when I pull up my saved order it still gives me the 5/6 option but will it work when I submit it?

    Need to know as I can do some "special offers" at the party that way.

    Thank you
  • Thanks for the advice guys :D I think I will be crossing some of the book munching offenders off my list for C7. Why they can't just leave the books out I will never know. It is just plain rude!! haha Yay it will be much easier to cover all my territory each campaign!! :j

    I have got one house that leaves the book outside but steals the bag it was in!! :mad: I'm not redoing that house EVER again as a matter of principle!! :rotfl:

    I was wondering....suppose I do decide to go back to trying Avon again, what the hell will all the people I delivered books to before think? will they want to order again considering I had to let them down? will it be worth even trying?

    I'd let those people know that you've had trouble but hope to have it sorted soon, just a little note to post through should do to keep the faith!

    I'm so unmotivated ... only 8 days til order date and have hardly put any books out :eek: had a week off work too, go back on monday and still nothing done! :confused:

    Yeah thats a good idea....

    I might type something up tomorrow and deliver it in the afternoon, then consider putting more books out in a month or so. Thats if the couriers can be trusted this time?!

    Lol they must be hard-up to steal bags!!!:p Very bizarre!!!

    Going through checking everyones order is entered right on the website - does everyone else do this? I enter them as I go along, but then always double-check a day or so before I submit my order just in case!

    I don't put books out that week in order to give myself a week off from canvassing my streets, plus it also does mean that people aren't waiting as long for their products. In that week I get the books bagged up ready for delivering and sort out printing out the newsletters I put in etc, sticker up extra order forms and so on.

    I've had that too! Why do they do it? They don't cost that much so why steal it? And they don't even order so I've stopped dropping a book through! lol.
