Honny and I are in the same schedulers' areas for ACL. I get a few emails, mostly summarizing a lot of shops within my stated radius, but not usually emails for just one shop. Maybe we have better organized schedulers? They also seem to be quite responsive to any requests that I may make for different dates or to change an established date that I has previously accepted.
Maybe that is the answer. But it's too bad there is no oversight by ACL to counsel the less organized schedulers, because annoying your shoppers and having them see an ACL email and think: "%#$*& ANOTHER *&%$# ACL email!" is probably not the image ACL is going for. I don't mind the daily "There are shops in your area" that list several shops. I wouldn't even mind getting two or 3 of those multiple shop emails. But I'm getting single emails for every client and every location, and these are shops that are clearly already available on the job Board. Two particular schedulers are responsible for all the emails and one sends most of them. I see her name and immediately delete.
Like canadianghetto, I would probably not mind as much if I were being offered shops I'd never seen before, but that's not the case. These are jobs that have been sitting on my Job Board and I already know I don't want them.
I think these may be new schedulers who think shoppers work only for ACL and are probably sitting home waiting to hear from them so they can grab those shops and run out and do them. It makes me want to reply to each email to let the scheduler understand the massive volume and how annoying it is. I won't, but it makes me kind of laugh to think about doing it.
