Negotiating Fees with RBG

April 04, 2022 08:17PM
Has anyone had success with asking for the bonused crunch time fees that they give every month at the beginning of the month?

If so, have you had any success with it?

There are two convenience store shops (formerly Strategic Reflections) that normally pay $10 plus $10 reimbursement. Each month they end up being bonused to $30 plus $10 reimbursement.

I was just wondering if I could successfully ask for that now. I think the old scheduler, Ellie, (formerly Strategic Reflections) would have worked with me, but now another RBG scheduler that lots of people have issues with has these shops.

I guess I could ask and see what happens. Thoughts about this and any other RBG shops you've been able to negotiate fees for would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Rosie,

As you have solicited opinions, mine, for as long as I recall, is that it is better to try and fail than wonder "what if." I absolutely abhor "what ifs." In addition, the problems others have experienced with Nicki might not exist in a relationship you would form with her. The worst that could occur would be a deactivation, and, as one who was so terminated can attest, that action has not in the slightest affected my life.

I agree with Bob,

It never hurts to ask, email, even Nikki can be reasonable now and then. And if you get deactivated it's no big deal RBG just isn't worth sweating bullets over.

It's interesting that two shoppers knew what scheduler I was referring to.

I have history with Nikki and it seems she's only helpful to me when it benefits her. I do get her frantic end of month texts and e-mails when she desperately needs a shop done. However, I've been burned by her enough times that I won't help her even if I could. UNLESS it's to my benefit.

She doesn't understand the concept of one hand washes the other, IMHO.
