shipping 101


so, for some reason BTW thought it was so important to ship us a box of 2, just 2 "the scream" magnets. guess this was a crucial thing, that we really needed 2 -- not the fact that we've been outta sticky tack for 4 days and are low on all magnets. most of the poster restock we've gotten doesn't apply to what we've sold. - team wild dick

  1. this made team raw moms hearts swell because just yesterday we received a similar sized box filled with 4 "BEER" magnets, 2 packs of pink floyd of cards, and 5 stickers.

  2. So assuming we are all getting small shipments means that we are all clearly selling more stuff than they expected us to. Yet- hardly any of us are meeting the monetary projections of "what they expect us to sell".

    Smells a little fishy, eh?

  3. We were passively threatened for asking too many questions about out projections.

    taken from the email:

    "I have spoken with Michele regarding your request. The projections will
    not be adjusted due to the standard poster pricing. Also, not all
    product pricing was lowered when the items were standardized.

    Additionally, once again the projections are based on averages from
    actual prior sales, and for the sake of the schools we do not disclose
    company confidential information.

    I appreciate your concern regarding your sales, but I have to tell you
    that we do not appreciate the confrontational attitude that has been
    directed towards this company. We have the same projections to meet as
    well and we benefit from our reps having successful sales. We want to
    do everything we can to help you succeed simply because it benefits
    everyone. However, we are now concerned that our sponsors and customers
    at the school have been receiving the same lack of consideration shown
    towards us in phone calls and emails, which would be unacceptable to us.

    Sincerely,

    Cindy Clarke"
