Thanks Lord Freddie for that.
Just to clarify the reasons I'm doing things the way I am:
I run the business totally on my own, & for the small amount of profit involved on the subscriptions for Reel Magic, I don't want to keep checking the book of subscriptions to see which ones have expired, & send reminder notes out etc etc. So the idea was to CLOSE the subscriptions at the end of SEPT, so as everyone was on board at the SAME TIME, (LESS HASTLE FOR ME!). Then it emerged that many had purchased issue one elsewhere (No comment!!) & wanted to subscribe with me from issue two, which I have gone along with, because it amounts to the same situation, of everyones subscriptions ending at the same time, AS LONG as I charge £15 INSTEAD of £20!!! & you get three instead of four!
It makes it easy for me to keep track of, I print all the labels out in one hit. Anything that makes life a bit easier, as I have all the other jobs to do as well, like getting all the orders out same day, dealing with walk in customers, ordering, bookeeping, & keeping the website up to date with the latest things as they arrive! plus taking off the items we are out of stock of, plus answering all the emails etc etc, in a timely fashion.
So if anyone has been sitting on the fence regarding Reel Magic Quarterly, which has to be the biggest bargain of the year, then contact me soonest. If you start from issue one, you will get BOTH issues sent together. The next one will be out Jan (a cheap Magic Fix just after Xmas!)
All good wishes
Mike
