Contacting Online Book Orders: Maximizing Customer Engagement
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on effective strategies for contacting customers who have placed online book orders through a party system. Participants recommend two primary approaches: making a call to thank customers before submitting the show, which may encourage additional orders, or calling after the items have been received to ensure satisfaction and introduce hosting benefits.

It's up to you! Some suggest you make the call to thank them for your order and introduce yourself before submitting your show....sometimes they may add to their order. Also, if they learn about booking, and know it would help their friend earn a booking benefit...it may be the deciding factor to booking that show.
Others prefer to call after they've received their items.....the "out of the box" call.....this allows you to introduce yourself, make sure they love their items and you can share a tip specific to their order. Before the call is over, you can introduce the benefits of hosting their own show.

This is something that I should do - but I have to admit, I am TERRIBLE at ccc. Personally, I would think it would be good to do after they've received their order as mentioned above and do the "out of the box" calls. You can always just call them and thank them for their order on "Susie's show"....etc.
