“One Sale” Concept Both S&S and D2D rolled into “One Sale” S&S – Orders and Distribution Same as in the past All S&S Ordered Product Property of Unit – No Unsold S&S Product Returns for 2012 – S&S Sell Money not due until 30 Nov 2012 Can (and encouraged) to turn in S&S money early. 30
S&S – Add on Products Limited Product Ordered by Council First Come - First Served During week by appointment –(Preferred option) –First Three Weekends – Volunteers-Pro-staff at Council Offices Sat and Sun from (2 PM) for restocking. –Sunday, 16 Sep, –Sat/Sun 22/23 Sep, –Sat/Sun 29/30 Sep –Add On Products also Property of Unit 31
So What Do We Do with Unsold S&S Product??? Continue to sell S&S past traditional S&S Turning date (mid Oct). Sell via Show and Deliver Method –D2D with (limited) Product Immediately Available Stop S&S Sale and adjust Unit’s D2D Order by rolling excess S&S Product into Unit’s D2D Order. –Like PPC has done for the last 17 years 32
2012 One Sale – High 3 - Commission Structure 33 Commissions – Continue to use the One Sale concept for 2012 Units will have the totals of their D2D, S&S and OnLine Sales combined for commission calculations. The key difference is: Council will use the High 3 (highest combined sales for the past three years ( ) as the baseline for the 2012 commissions). One Sale – High 3 achieves three significant goals: First, it will even out the roller coaster affect that some units undergo year to year (high sales and low sales) to allow them to manage their sales better. Secondly, as the “last payee” – High Three helps balance out the Council end of year budget execution. Finally, Council will now include the Unit’s On Line Sales (01 August through 18 Oct 2012) into the One Sale totals to enhance the commissions to the units.
2012 One Sale – High 3 - Commission Structure 34 Unit 123 – Sales for last three years: D2DS&SOn LineOne-Sale Total 2009$10,000$1,500$0$11, $9,0003,500$0$12, $8,000$2,000$1,000$11,000 Unit 123’s High 3 was 2010 with a One Sales total of $12,500 – All commission computations for 2012 will be based on the 2010 $12,500 High 3 figure.
