The Country Club & BizBuzz

I love this product. And the company tries to communicate with everyone. But I only just found out yesterday that the sign-up page has been disabled while they add payment options for the global market. That's great-- could they have TOLD US?

I sent a complaint email to support, but I doubt anyone will actually read it.

So far their only fault as a company is their rather myopic -- not to mention short sighted -- attitude that the only way they need to communicate with their distributors is through conference calls. Hah! That is beyond ridiculous since at least 50% of the distributors CANNOT attend them and, if you do, it is a matter of so much background noise and cross talk, it's nearly un-intelligible. TCC does seem to have a rather corporate posture (and anyone who knows me knows how I feel about corporate anything) about it-- if you're interested you'll call.

Humph!

Their lack of communication could be their downfall.

But the real issue now is that the sign-up pages have been disabled. They were supposed to be up by Monday (2/13-- last Monday) but I just checked again and found they are still off. So, if you've tried to sign up and wonder why it isn't working. . . join the club (no pun intended). From the frantic emails I've received, they will probably be up next week. These emails are the only reason I found out the page was disabled.

I WILL put a post up when it's up again. Thanks for your patience.

You CAN also join the famous conference calls -- there's a Q&A one scheduled for 1:00 EST today-- to join it:

Also, there's a 3 minute pre-recorded call, if you'd like to hear that: Dial 800-213-9592.
