RE: Iris Resources - Digital Programs

This is Sue Ann Barnes, past RVP of Region 7. Just two weeks ago I got a call from the secretary of a Region 7 club looking for a program on short notice for their meeting today. I tried to send a Power Point I had, but was unsuccessful. So I recommended the AIS website and the programs listed there. I copied the e-mail to Janet Wilson, Region 7 RVP, and she sent a PDF of the order form to the club and they did order the digital program on Rebloomers. I agree with Janet, that some kind of a short form would be lovely for those who don't go on line with regularity. Winter is a great time to print it, as clubs are gearing up for the program year and I think it would help a lot of program chairs.

Subject: [AISdiscuss] Iris Resources - Digital Programs

 Greetings, I just found out that Judy Keisling fell and was not able to
 attend the Fall Board Meeting. She was going to discuss (she is on my
 committee) the decrease of revenue for Digital Programs.
 
 Since my term as chair I have been consistent of at least $1,000 income a
 year 2008 to 2014). This year $641.00 total income. We went from 148
 orders in 2014; 2015 only 74 order and that stopped in July.
 
 Order form use to be placed in the bulletin (October I believe. I can't
 recall when but the editor (presume Kelly) asked to eliminate several
 pages that they felt could be placed on the website and thus make room for
 more articles which included the order form. At the time there was
 concern on my part of lost sales as not everyone has a computer. The BOD
 agreed and removed the order form along with the other pages.
 
 Well here we are today, and as predicted, sales have dropped. I would like
 to see the order form placed in the Winter issue of this year's bulletin
 and ask how this could be accomplished since I am not on the board.
 
 If we don't get an increase of orders for this fiscal year we can remove
 it from the next winter's issue.
 
 You can refer to my reports in archives or ask me any questions you wish.
 
 Janet Smith
 Coordinator
 
 P.S. In talking with Judy Keisling we thought removing the DVD section
 and notating if interested ask would cut the form in half which would make
 it better for the bulletin.
