I`ve taken Ray`s original post announcing Connect last year and made a couple of changes that I believe could allow Connect to continue and while it wouldn`t be the kick butt offer of last year it would allow a program that many would still use.
First of all, there are no free gifts upon sign up (most of us got almost $100 worth of product just for signing up).
Secondly and I think most everyone can see the writing on the wall here, free expedited shipping has to cost ACC money over the period of a year. I don`t know what the right number is but have a set shipping fee on every order with no minimum. This would stop $10 orders with free shipping, it had to be a loser for the company.
No need for a Connect Members only set of deals. This part of the program didn`t work out so well anyway and I didn`t see members up in arms about it.
Maybe even limit the discount stacking on regular sales over 15%.
Lastly set the membership fee higher but still reasonable, perhaps $150.
I`m very interested in seeing CONNECT being an on-going entity. I know some of these may sound like the members would be giving away the farm but the way I see it, the farm will be completely gone if we`re not willing to make concessions to the point that ACC doesn`t lose money on the program. I`d be interested in others thoughts. Ray, I`d be interested in hearing what you have to say. There has to be a program out there that makes sense for both ACC and its members.
