What a joy...Ive just received details of a new 3 for 99 offer for verticals, rollers and venetians...The thing is I cant make any sense of it...One of the vertical fabrics on 3 for £129 is, according to the accompanying letter, acacia avocado...there is no such colour in acacia...I have been sent a sample of cerilly FR in avocado...is this to be used on the offer as an alternative?...Also on the roller blinds, the accompanying letter says NO SIDEWINDER..but the card which shows the samples says SIDEWINDER ONLY.....I think I need to lie down for a while.  |

Its dead easy. Sidwinders are only available on normal price sales unless otherwise stated. Luxury are for the 3 for 99 in acacia avocado unless it is to go on cirilly, which has replaced acacia avocado so the controls can be sidewinder unless otherwise stated or other is asked for in which case you need to refer them to the normal price book in which case cirilly has been replaced with acacia avocado and either controls are available unless they have a venetian in with the 3 for 99 in that case sit down and have some valium or a couple of buds and chill out, no one will mind if you shed a few tears. All clear now? Red |

Our sheet shows Cerilly Aocado as 3 4 129 in verts. Robs are sidewinder only up to 1.2 x 1.55m. All subject to 1 offer per household, while stocks last. Just priced a conservatory. 14 robs in Acacia Cream £981. In Kiwi, 3 for 129, one offer per household £559. And that is using SAM. I wonder what the customer will choose. But before she decides, she wants samples, for hubbies approval. |

Just had a huge ships mast size leaflet delivered with my local paper with 3 for 99p the size of a house all over it.
I am doing a bit of Origami now and turning the leaflet into a 2 story extension with toilet. Trying to get the 3 for 99p bit to be part of the roof so it can be seen from the air.
Cant quite get the folds right but its getting there.

Normally I would try and put a positive spin on this, but I must admit I am also slightly *p**sed* off by this 3 for 99 'promotion' how about Hillarys pay us a service charge of £20 for each customer wanting the 3 for 99 that we have to walk away from ? Just today I had a customer who had been promised by the call center that she could have 3 for 149 (reality Clouds Beige offer 127mm) customer actually wanted ripple vanilla, 89mm which works out at £213, client most appoligetic for wasted time (petrol etc), but can only afford £149 should I f**k up my discount stats to make the sale, or should Hillarys call center set realistic expectations for the clients ? I walked away on this one although they are a repeat Hillarys special offer abusers !.

I walked away on this one although they are a repeat Hillarys special offer abusers !. ask yourself this euroweb, would Hillarys like you to walk away without a sale...no .. then dont... sell 'em something else, like lace, Hilarys will still make a few quid, you'll make your quid !! everyones happy. if they make a fuss over the discounts, ask your f.S.M to go out selling with you to show you how to upgrade, and still make a sale. after all you have to make a sale to survive, they don't, they get a salary. if they want you to constantly walk away with nothing then they are wrong.. You should know by all the postings what it cost to make a blind, so hillarys are still on a winner, especially if those customers come back to us in the future. Would they rather have another company get that sale. Come on guys we know the crack just do it |

As somebody who has seen their income half over the last month due to alack of company leads I welcome the 3 for 99 as hopefully it will increase lead numbers and give me a chance of earning some money. All businesses are suffering around my area so any method of obtaining business must be welcomed. I would rather be out there earning some money than sitting around twiddling my thumbs. Last time we had 3 for 99 here leads increased dramatically and I still managed to have a decent lead effect and AOV.
