Well c16 is looking a lot more promising than the last!! Pick up some books yesterday got a £30 order from a customer which included 2 lotus shield, so glad I kept some from the money maker!!! Also got a £25 order from someone who hasn't ordered since my first campaign c11 I think it was so that was a nice suprise!!! Still got 2 good customers on that street to collect and all my other street and f&f! So fingers crossed!!!!

Just googled to find out the base notes so I can have a look for you....

Joop Jump represents the man of the new millennium

He is established yet unconventional. He has an intense way of enjoying life. This fragrance is an easy to wear modern everyday fragrance which derived from a creative inspiration around frozen vodka and coriander leaves.

Launched: 2005

Heart notes
Frozen Vodka :eek: that's the first time I have heard of alcohol being used as an inspiration for perfumes/aftershaves...:rotfl:

Top notes
Grapefruit

Base notes
Tonka Bean

Scent
Fresh

Feel
Fresh, Individual, Modern

Coincidence... I got a lot of samples of Ungaro for men and didn't know if I'd have much use for them. So I was offering them along with other samples when doing deliveries and one woman said she'd have one because her husband always wears Joop and she was keen to get him to try something different.

Hope he likes it and it turns into a sale!

Yes try Ungaro, Black Suede, Ironman, Just Play for him and Windscape for Him. Not sure if you can get samples for all of them, not checked. But nothing really similar to Joop.

Don't worry if you check your order online and the brochures are showing as more expensive...it will be correct on your paper invoice, there's a technical problem at the moment, they definately aren't increasing the price of books!

I have been looking at the delivery dates and I think it will be too soon for people in between the last 3 of this year. Will I be able to skip book 2? Im sure I read a while back that if I just order something small it will be ok?

Had a good collection day today, 3 orders totally £74, 7 books not out from my regulars but I have left a note saying Il go back on tue to give them more time. Hopefully they are showing friends/family the xmas book.

Yeah you can miss an order out - just order some order forms & the brochures you'll need, and tell whoever signed you up that you won't be doing a full order that campaign due to your delivery dates. I did all of them last year, and I'll be doing the same this year, but I did cut down on the amount of people I gave books to (noone at work as we're shut over christmas anyway and no family) - basically just gave them to my "good" customers, who we figured would order, and who let us know if they aren't in for deliveries to keep things easier. Meant we got some extra money just in time for a takeaway on christmas eve & some sales shopping lol.

Book 2 was a good book for offers, I thought it was better than 1 - so could be worth doing a back order in 3 for books from 2 if that makes sense - Book 2 is like the "new years sale" book - some of the stuff isn't actually cheaper, but how they present everything people think they are getting a bargain.

Yes you can skip a book, as long as you put in a small order.

I thought I would have to skip a book last year and I actually managed to get orders on all 3 campaigns, ok not the biggest and some customers ordered from 1 out of 3 and not all 3, etc, but it was ok.

gaaaaaaaaah don't normally complain about my customers but today they are really getting on my nerves! been waiting all morning for one who wanted to come and collect order, now telling me can they make it sunday? NO, am busy. And the one who forgot I was coming Friday wants to know where I am!
