Week 29 Update

Another Great week for Travel! - Did you know that for October we are offering an improved exchange rate? - It is better than M&S!. Please make sure all your customers aware of this great promotion. Don't forget half terms holidays start soon so many of your customers will be heading for the Sun for one last time this year. For those Holiday conversations make sure that you link Travel Insuarnce as well - Another Great Sales Opportunity!


I know it has been a difficult few weeks with the Royal Mail strike, lets hope those problems are resolved quickly. However, Special Delivery remains a key Income driver for you. During Industrial Action Special Delivery will continue to receive priority above all other mail, so for that urgent or valuable item Special Delivery remians the number one product for our customers and one that we should be promoting at all times.

Our Banking performance remains borderline - Are you asking at every transaction above £5
" Would you like to pay by Debit card", "Did you know that you can pay by debit card". Only by asking these questions will we be able to offer cash out and so improve our banking business. Come on lets all give it a go and really get behind this approach

And Finally!

Dates for diaries - On Tuesday 30 October we will holding our first quarterly sales awards. Venue is yet to be confirmed but please make every effort to attend. We wil be holding the event at a Restaurant near you! - By holding this type of social event it will enable us all to mix in an informal setting celebrate what we have so far achieved and look ahead to the second half of the year. The event will begin at 8:00 to allow everyone to attend.

This approach is unique to our team, and we are only able to hold this type of event thanks to the support that Phil has been able to provide. Phil has been able to obtain additional funding to hold these types of events and for us to do something different to the rest of the BDM teams. - So please really get behind this approach and make every effort to attend.

PS - If you know of any restaurants that would make a good venue for this type of event ideally located between Oldham and Manchester then please let me know.

Good luck with this sales
John
