Have you heard about the National Geographic Kids Special offer with the Sunday Age?

The Age emailed me about this National Geographic Kids discount offer last night as a consumer and not ad a newsagent. It’s the first I have heard of it unless I have missed something.

    IPS emailed this over a week ago. It has also been on the Age’s Connect website for a week or so.

    I don’t have Connect access as I am not a direct account. I missed the IPS notice, sorry.

    I suspect the IPS notice was only sent to agents with a direct account

    Which is why it would have been easier to send a piece of paper with the stock to inform people. I missed the notice too, because staring at a pc looking for notices is far less important than talking to my customers face to face….

    I agree. They should have made it more obvious.

    IPS called us to see what supply level we wanted. A customer pointed it out to me last Tuesday and my Fairfax Rep spoke to me about it on Tuesday this week. I have received a load of communication about it. Granted that we should have been notified before a customer pointed out an ad in the SMH last week.

    Quick update on this one. Out of the 145 received, we moved the grand total of 13….5 of these we sold to a subby, and expect most of these back as returns anyway

    Hi Ken,
    Our fairfax rep is great. I know it sounds unbelievable but he always contacts us and always replies within a day to any concerns.
    Cheers

    G,day Chris,
    Thanks for confirming their existence I guess they must chuck a U-turn at the city limits as I have not seen one EVER in nearly 11 years.

    8 years and not only have we never had a rep I don’t think I have actually had a phone call from Fairfax. Ever. In fact a customer told me he recently rang the subscription line and was told no one in our town does home deliveries so I’m sure Fairfax don’t even know we exist.

    Not in a city, have always had a rep, never really had any need to see current one, just phone or email always get an immediate response.
    Shayne I can send you my reps contact details if you like.
