When Will Directors Receive Sell a Thon Products?

Click For Summary
Directors are eagerly anticipating the arrival of their product packages, with many speculating delivery dates around July 24. Previous experience suggests that paperwork often arrives with director benefits boxes. Some directors are planning team meetings to celebrate the arrival of products, expressing excitement about using new items to motivate their teams. However, there are concerns about delays in certain products, specifically five items that are expected to ship separately by mid-August, including popular items like the Bamboo Knife Block and Dots Stemware. Discussions around tracking shipments highlight confusion, particularly regarding the use of reference numbers for FedEx tracking. Many directors share their excitement over receiving their packages, while others are frustrated by not receiving their sell-a-thon items on time. Overall, there is a mix of anticipation and disappointment regarding product availability and shipping timelines, with a strong community focus on supporting one another during this period.
I'm with you Beth~it seems to happen each season that there is a hold up on something....I just wish they would communicate the why to us!
 
The letter doesn't say why. Just says delayed and will ship seperately. Says they expect to receive them by mid August and will ship when they get them. Does say Rest assure that all fall products will be available for sale to customers Sept 1st.
I agree though, this happens every season. Like when the new scraper was available to customers and we all still had to wait to get what we earned.
 
well, it will still be fun to get them, whenever they come! I'm so thankful that we get this perk as Directors. Many DS companies don't do this level of care for their people and I know it's a pain to wait but I try to keep the same attitude as I have to ask my customers to keep when I have to tell them something is on backorder. I don't like it but I'm thankful they feel assured about shippping for Sept.

I agree ...but I promised my team they'd be there by the meeting. :cry: ...and I told my host for Aug. 8 that I'd have the bowl at her show since she can get it for $550 in sales and she is soooo excited about it.:cry:

I know, the pictures are great and we can use that just as well as having the product (and I'm not normally going to carry the knife block).

Okay, I'm done whining. :rolleyes: Pampered Chef IS very generous to us.
 
I think it is a great way to lighten up the load--photos and creating visuals are great!!

So I've been MIA for 15 minutes because my son went outside and he said "MOM, you have Pampered Chef here!" I ran to the door saying Yay!! I sat down with my kids and looked through the "holiday" cookbook and they pretty much want me to make EVERYTHING!! Oh gosh, there goes my 40 pounds!!

I am sad about my bamboo knife block but i'll be happy when it comes in!!

FYI-

I just looked through my paper work box and the sample product order form. For the Bamboo knife block, it says it'll ship seperately by August 29th.
 
Mine JUST ARRIVED!!!

Wahoo!

I'm taking the new Forged Santoku to my show tonight....Sept booking anyone? And the Holiday cookbook! I need Aug shows so anyone who books an Aug show will get the cookbook as a gift from me in Sept.

Check post #52

The 5 that will ship by mid Aug are:

Still waiting... and my SAT items are still not showing up on the tracker. I went 10 numbers up from my director package tracking number and nothing.:cry:
 
Oh poo! :(
 
I just came back from errands and there were boxes on my porch! Yippee! I have to do some work though before i can open them. Never did see a G order online.

I'm sorry guys! :( Let us know when you get them!
 
Mine arrived today - I am bummed about having to wait, especially for the bowls...but can't wait to use the new Rotary Grater with dinner tonight! PC never ceases to amaze me with all the new products each season!

Oh - and I, who poo-poo'ed the outdoor tumblers last season, have to apologize to the PC powers that be. Those tumblers ROCK. We just took them out of the boxes and started using them - they're awesome!
 
I've been gone for 5 hours and the whole time I was gone all I could think about was getting home to my new toys and when I go there... NOTHING!!!!! :cry:

But it's still saying it's out for delivery so I'm keeping my fingers crossed he comes today! Why does it seem that he comes late in the day ONLY when I'm waiting on free products? :rolleyes:
