Hi All,
I WISH we could do the shops! There are so many I would absolutely love to try; so, (as I think I said before), I tell my husband, "we are going to try this one", and I don't have to cook and he gets out of dish duty. LOL!
Just to let you know.. we do have a HUGE number of shops! We have been in the process of migrating shops from Qore over to Shopmetrics. If you couldn't find it in Qore, most likely it has been, or is in the process of, being moved over to SM. Definitely keep looking throughout the month. Kudos to those on our management team who have been handling the migration, because they have been doing a terrific job on it.
Pointers for SM (these are based on the # of emails that I am getting)
1. Can't find anything when you search? Try this:
----> Click on "Open Opportunities".
----> In your dashboard center, you'll see: "The postal code and distance below are set according to your profile. Click here to reset and show all opportunities."
----> Delete your zip code and mileage from their respective boxes, leaving blank.
----> Click on the *red* font link, "The postal code and distance below are set according to your profile. Click here to reset and show all opportunities."
----> All of the open shops will now show up for you. I think it is just 100 per page, but you may be able to adjust to show more.
2. Additionally, you can use the drop menu with the various survey names. It may be a little more difficult that way for newer evals, not sure.
3. If you submit a request - PLEASE put your dates available in the request. Something like this helps tremendously: 6/1, 6/2, 6/5, 6/6, 6/7, 6/15-6/25 or; Monday - Wednesdays in June; or Any day after 6/15 so that I can compare your request to the Client's scheduling parameters.
4. Why can't I log into Shopmetrics? 99.9% of the time it is because the evaluator did *not* register, and they are trying to use their Qore log in. Shopmetrics is a separate database, information is not transferred, so to pick up the shops in shopmetrics or to view the Client opportunities there, evaluators (including long time Qore evals) are being asked to please complete a "new registration" in SM. The shopmetics system will automatically send you out a new username/pw combo. (pw may be changed, UN is not). The other percentage is because the eval tried too many times to log in and ended up getting locked out. Just email support for help, they can unlock it for you.
5. When is my shop date? Typically we are sending out emails to everyone we schedule; in it, we are adding what your shop date is. Your START date is your **physical shop date**. Your DUE date is the day the Client is requesting that the report be submitted. If you see: START Date 2015-06-05 DUE Date 2015-06-07 23:59 --> it means that the Client has requested the evaluator visit on Friday, June 5; and they would like for you to submit your service report by 11:59 PM on Sunday, June 7.
Thank you evals for your patience as the shops are migrating over!
And - don't forget to continue to check Qore/Main site also - we do still have shops listed there I am looking at filling for our clients this month.
Have a great evening and upcoming weekend!
