Di_Can_Cook said:Have you seen the e-mails that are available through Customer Connection?
Lamest things EVER. You can't change them. You can't personalize them in any way.
legacypc46 said:I'm not a huge fan of these either...mostly because in order to keep my customers up to date, I'd have to send MULTIPLE emails. The CC emails only let you share one announcement at a time...worded just the way they want it.
I get at least 2 emails a week from another DS company...I hate it (unfortunately, the consultant is a friend and very prone to disappointment, so I suck it up). I promise my customers they'll get no more than two emails a month from me: an update on the outlet and a newsletter/update on specials.
heat123 said:What email do you speak of? I need to send out my NL this week! Never mind I thought it was something I missed from her sending an email but figured out you were talking of the postcard on TT. I think.
pcchefjane said:BTW, if HO has someone monitoring CS, why do the eBay and internet violators stay on so long or never caught? I would think they would be much more interested in that than a newsletter that stimulates more business!
I hope you will respect that I choose to keep the # private for now... I really don't have anything to hide, but I think there are people that do the simple math and figure out how much income it generates, and then have an opinion on whether or not I'm deserving of that. As you all know, running a business involves much more than just cashing the commission check and spending it. I will say that it DOES help with our household income, especially since my husband took a pay cut last year to change into a job that makes him 200% happier. Sacrifices, ya know... and I do spend an enormous amount of time on it, and I reinvest with things like upgraded software and contracted programming like building out TTConnect. The sample requests being answered immediately are one of the new perks that my developer programmed.I will also say that although I am grateful for my subscribers, and that my base has grown tremendously over the last year, that I don't think we'd make a dent in the # of actual consultants, and I honestly don't think any sort of grassroots effort is going to help.cmdtrgd said:Joy - how many subscribers do you have?

pamperedlinda said:I was thinking the same thing....think back to Nancy's....and she probably did a whole lot more business with PC than you do (no offense meant to you Joy).
janetupnorth said:Tasty Tidbits isn't going away...I'd wait to e-mail, etc. until we hear what is actually happening so when something big happens, we have a voice. No need to cry "wolf" when nothing has been announced to us. We are just assuming...
Joy fixed her site so she isn't in danger.
PampChefJoy said:Do you think Merchandise Mart went after Doris when she started purchasing kitchen products there and then resold them to the public and kept the profit, when the public could have bought directly from them?
MAN I am feeling a bit cheeky today.
ChefBeckyD said:Well, actually, the Merchandise Mart is only open to vendors. It's wholesale, not retail, so the public can't buy directly from them.
pamperedlinda said:Joy - I just sent you an email. Can you get email now or only when you get home?
PampChefJoy said:Where did you send it? gmail or through here? don't see anything...
bethsbiz said:Sorry, I actually disagree with not contacting home office. This is a very real issue and Joy may not be the only newsletter designer being affected. I continue to be troubled by some incongruities in what they are allowing on other sites. I think the newsletter subject needs to be addressed by home office and NOT with a potential Merrill option. Diplomatic support of Joy/Tasty Tidbits and others like her who help our biz every day need to go to HO.
chefann said:Joy, whatever the outcome is, I want you to know that you're awesome and we truly appreciate all you do. I finally bit the bullet and subscribed yesterday, and I love that I already have the recent newsletters from before I signed up in my box. That's a great feature! (Now to just get it sent out to my customer base...)
prepchef said:Joy,
I spoke briefly with Linda Bowles yesterday. I stated that
- we as consultants need quality, usable monthly news letters.
- the company does not provide that.
- Customer Connection sucks and is unusable.
- HO needs to hire you for the position!
- If consultants are allowed to use copyrighted material to communicate to our Hosts and Guests, then you should be able to write one for us.
She listened and didn't have much to say (she was eating her lunch). She did say that she hears about the Internet and Newsletter issue everywhere she goes. And that Donna is THE person who does the research on violations and that she is the one to talk to.
It was a great meeting!
PampChefJoy said:I totally understand if someone else feels the need to get further clarification on this... I am just saying that I am not seeking it myself. I will not be angry with anyone who feels the need to take matters into their own hands.
I do, however, feel that we may force their hand and the result may not be what you want... hence my hesitation on drawing more attention to the matter. It's not that I'm not a fighter, but there are some circumstances where I choose to pick my battles wisely. This is not one of those situations where I want to stir the pot.
kcjodih said:Joy, did anyone send the email that you asked for? Let us know! I know that I'm one of many that would be willing to send it but as mentioned we don't want to inundate them.
An internet violation notice is a message from your website hosting company alerting you that your site has been flagged for violating their terms of service. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as linking to malicious websites, posting inappropriate content, or using too much bandwidth.
The standard verbiage in the notice typically includes a warning about not linking, posting, or using any content that violates the hosting company's terms of service. It is a general statement to inform you that your site has been found to have violated their policies.
The best way to find out the exact violation is to contact the hosting company directly. They should be able to provide you with more specific information about what content or actions on your site led to the violation notice.
First, you should carefully review the notice and any related terms of service from your hosting company. Then, address the issue by either removing the violating content or taking necessary steps to fix the problem. Finally, respond to the hosting company and let them know what actions you have taken to resolve the violation.
It is possible that your consultant email is linked to your website in some way, such as on a flyer or business card. Make sure to review all of your online presence and update any contact information to avoid future confusion or issues with your website.
