Consultant Depot - Direct Mail for Direct Sales

Hi Everyone!

I hope your week is going along successfully! I would like to update you with some updates to previous Blog posts - and share an interesting story, too!

*Update to Newspaper New Homeowner Listing Mailing Trial!
About a month ago, I posted a blog entry about a trial mailing series to new homeowners in the area - you can read more about it here: http://www.consultantdepot.com/blog/2006/06/new-homeowner-listings-in-newspapers.html - I'm happy to report that after 2 campaigns submitted, I've gained a total of 14 new customers from this trial run! We did cut the last mailing in half, just for the fact that we ran out of brochures! I will be following up with a Mystery mailing flyer, too - focusing on what all Avon has to offer with fundraising, signing up to sell, and the benefits of having me as their representative. I hope you find this helpful!

*Update to Consultant Depot Saves You Money!
Less than a month ago, I posted about the running total of money being put back into our clients' pocketbooks by using our services as opposed to the USPS individually. We have reports on the back-end of our website that adds up this total amount for us. You can read more about that post at:
http://www.consultantdepot.com/blog/2006/06/consultant-depot-saves-you-money.html

We are happy to report that we have nearly DOUBLED the amount posted less than a month ago! The total amount of money saved has reached $32,090.88!! Isn't that amazing?

*Update to Calendar pages on www.consultantdepot.com!
We have updated our Calendar page that lists the upcoming deadlines for each of our mailings through the third quarter! You can view them here: http://www.consultantdepot.com/resources/Calendar.aspx.

Our Alexa.com Ratings Continue to Climb!
We've climbed over 500,000 spots from being ranked over 1,700,000 on the list about 4 - 5 months ago to 1,151,954 today! We're hoping to break the 900,000 mark by the end of the month! For more information - visit http://www.alexa.com! This isn't something that we constantly check, but it's fun to see where you compare to other websites out there! Can you guess what the #1 ranked website could be?

And now, for the funny story! We have been receiving several phone calls from men across the country on our Consultant Depot Business line - they keep asking if this is the number for the Free Sample. I'll take a stab and guess - say Viagra?! Our toll-free number must be pretty close to whatever is being advertised on TV - and they are mistyping in their excitedness to get this FREE Sample of product! Oh geesh - just thought I'd share!

As always - thank you for your interest in Consultant Depot! We appreciate your efforts to help us spread the word about our direct mailing services for direct sales representatives - particulary Avon Representatives! Please let us know if you have any questions/comments by emailing us at info@consultantdepot.com!

Have a great day!
