Brochure replenishment

August 17, 2020 02:55PM
Good morning. I've seen listings for replacing brochures at doctors' offices. Due to COVD, what is your opinion? Would you be likely to do them?

I did 2 that only had a rack in the waiting area and there was only 1 or 2 people there.When I went in at the door was a nurse that took your temp. and made sure you had a mask and gave you hand sanitizer, and the office people gave me gloves to wear while changing out the brochures. On leaving the nurse gave me hand sanitizer again. I had 3 offices I called today to schedule and they all told me they have removed the brochures and are not doing change outs until further notice.
They said that they had also removed all the magazines, so people wouldn't be touching them.

Were you paid anything for making the call?

I was told that they don't pay for precalls. But because I have worked for them for so long, she gave me $3 per call.

There is a heavily- bonused assignment to replenish brochures near me, so before accepting, I called the office in question. The receptionist told me she had already put the brochures in the rack! So I notified the scheduler. I wonder if they'll still want someone to go there? Anyone have this experience?

You definitely should take it! If they’ve already done the work, you just have to take photos in the app!

Yes! Take it! If the office already did the work, the MSC needs you to go there just to take pictures (make sure don't leave the old materials).The MSC will pay you the half of the payment(including the bonus) that still is a good payment.
They put today 2 PP shops in their Job Board and in Sassie; One in Yonkers, NY and 2 in Rochelle Park, NY(due date on 09/25).

I’ve also seen some with a dozen or more rooms to replenish. The fee was very high, but with so many rooms I have to wonder if someone could be there for hours waiting for rooms to open up.

If the medical office allow it(some ask us to come back in another time and/or day)to do the shops even when they have patients, I do. Otherwise, I have to come back. Sometimes I had to wait and stay there long hours...

I don't know what's going on with this company. A few weeks ago I received an email from a scheduler asking if I was interested in doing brochures for a new round starting in October. I replied, yes, I was interested.

I now have seven boxes of brochures sitting in my living room, and apparently offices have been assigned to me. I never requested or applied for these assignments. I emailed the scheduler but haven't heard back yet.

Any idea on what my options are? I don't plan to do all these for standard pay. Would it be possible to send the boxes back? I will continue to email the scheduler until I get a reply.

Thx
