Hows your sales in March? - GoFuckYourself.com

hawkadu · 03-12-2010, 06:38 PM

1 to 7 March was alright and this month was looking the best month of 2010 so far for me. Things suddenly went south with ccbill and all other sponsors in the last 5-6 days and now this month is looking the worst month of 2010

What up with your sales? Are you also noticing that sales have been very very dismal in the last one week for no apparent reason?

VGeorgie · 03-12-2010, 08:08 PM

There's a reason for everything.

This month has Spring Break, traditionally a slowing period. Most schools in the US close for a week; Spring Break weeks start next Monday, and the two remaining weeks of March. But the majority of US tax payers who are getting a refund will start receiving them later in the month and next month.

This March has five pay weeks, which may result in some higher sales. For people getting paid every other week, they may see three checks, instead of the usual two.

We just came from February, which has only 28 days, with that many fewer earning days, yet consumers are expected to pay the same for monthly mortgage, car loan, and so on. That means they're hard up until more pay periods for March.

I have NO IDEA if any of this actually makes a difference, but they're all potential reasons for whatever you want to read into the current state of consumer spending.

Yes same exact pattern for me. 1-7 were looking really good, then it's been brutal since Monday.

Sucks too as March is usually a good month, or should I say that it has been for me historically.

Down here lately, grossed 1/2 the 7-12th (today) compared to the 1st-6th.

It's been streaky. All eb and flow i guess. Be nice to see a nice steady signup rate but it never works that way.

Should be a decent weekend. Today was better.

Stable, as always.

livecarlo · 03-12-2010, 09:40 PM

Our sales tripled for some reason last week, but the last couple days has been average.

born2blog · 03-12-2010, 09:49 PM

overall March is going much better than February, no question there, at least in my case

andrej_NDC · 03-13-2010, 02:40 AM

Better, but just because I'm working more.

Waiter · 03-13-2010, 07:49 AM

little bit better

raven1083 · 03-13-2010, 08:32 AM

better than February

Raf1 · 03-13-2010, 08:47 AM

Were absolutely terrible .... until switched to epoch from ccbill as first in cascade .... then all of a sudden everything took off again. Ccbill's is just awful right now.

Sorry, I don't think I understand your question...

Argos88 · 03-13-2010, 03:44 PM

Better than February....

But, considering the current situation of impunity in this business, no surprise of the results. I mean, are you really expecting 1998-2001 sales? (even tough someone can quote me and say "my sales are like in 1998"...) With a sponsor ref code in their sig. They won't sound relistic anyways.

BlackCrayon · 03-13-2010, 05:32 PM

dec jan and feb were better for me. could be because my best seller is getting a bit saturated though..vids are probably getting on to the toobes.

FrozenJag · 03-13-2010, 09:56 PM

I normally have great sales but its been pretty bad here the last 2 weeks.

Owell, its gotta dip low sometime, will come back nicely on the upswing.

By now you'd think you'd have seen the trend.
