    Online Shop - % of sales via phone?

    I find the same as Blush - not many people want to order on the 'phone, but they do like to check that we exist, and sometimes ring up to ask about quick delivery etc. I think it's scary how many big companies with websites still make it so difficult for customers to find a 'phone number.

    7 days return policy - deducting postage costs?

    The point I was making to deniser was that I accidentally failed to read all the posts because there was so much to wade through - I didn't deliberately skip information or make inaccurate comments! I've said nothing about giving or receiving only advice I want to hear!

    PPC Management?

    Online Shop? How do YOU manageyour accounts?
