"The second exception pertains to personal electronic

Don't know why the "thumbs down" thing is on this...didn't put it there! Personally, I'm glad that we may be getting someone in addition to Merrill. :)
 
Sounds to me like it might be a newsletter vendor! I hope not because I like using Joy!!

I bet it is since all this mess that's been going on with the newsletter providers has been going on.
 
We had this discussion on the thread about Joy's service -

That new vendor phrase has been there for quite a while, and most likely refers to Merrill.

a Jeff Dunhams puppet Peanut would say "Damn"....
 
I know this isn't about the vendor but I went and read the new policies and I see where it saids consultants and senior consultants have to be active 3 months pior to kit enhancement month or they can't do kit enhancement and they also said they have to submit 150.00 in sales before they get to do the kit enhancement. This should be interesting for some people.
 
Someone already started a thread about that.
