    Is it possible to find out how many phoenix traders are within my area?

    If you check the February 2009 newsletter in the downloads section of the website, there is a map of the UK with the number of traders in each postcode area.

    I think this is done every new year.

    Hi Everyone,
    I was wondering if anyone knew if Phoenix Trading accepts traders in the Republic of Ireland. I have asked this question through their website a few times but have never received a reply. Would love to join if it was at all possible. Thanks.

    I don't think so, although you could try calling the office to confirm.
    :) Thank you to all OPs :)

    On the front of the brochure I also have a bright yellow sticker with 'Traders Wanted' printed on it (as advised by Stuart Millar in his 'get to ET' training).

    Hi Skeeter,

    Sorry if I was misleading. I bought the grip seal bags from ebay, but the only yellow stickers I could find were in staples - Avery L6035, 20 sheets (24 stickers to a sheet), then I downloaded the free software from the avery site to print to them.

    The white stickers I managed to find the generic staples ones, so I got 100 sheets of 21 labels to a sheet for about the same price. These I print up with 'I will collect this catalogue on Sunday' or whatever, and put it on the outside of the bag.

    You need to be careful when selecting stickers to make sure that you get ones compatible with your printer; I've bought a colour laser, as it is so much cheaper to run per print.

    Having said that, I print out my master label sheet on plain paper and then photocopy it onto the labels. My photocopier was a lot cheaper than the printer :)

    How's it going for you?

    I have a printer/scanner/copier although I could probably do with a better one. Have you seen any good deals lately?

    I am doing reasonably well - I sponsored my first PT last week after a year of itching to get sponsoring!

    I have also been doing a brochure distribution at a local school which has been successful, and led to other things e.g a parent received the brochure and invited me to attend her toddler group which she runs.

    How are you getting on?
    :) Thank you to all OPs :)

    Can anyone advise when the next catalogue comes out? Don't want to order too many Christmas ones and get left with them.
    Thanks for the advice Martin! :money:

  • What did you think of the survey of new products for January? I love doing them. Really liked some things, but wondered if others were too similar to cards we already stock.
