How is Homes+ selling?

homesplusWe have had the launch issue of Homes+ in prime position with home and living titles  as well as a stint with newspapers. We’ve not sold a single copy, making the space and labour investment worthless for us.

How is it selling for you?

    Sold 9 of 19 by having it prominent display all month. Can’t keep doing that however – too many other higher value titles that deserve support.

    Received 38, sold 6, today received another 38. Obviously the data we are required to send every night is not used in the majority of cases.

    Sold 10 of 13 of the first issue but they supplied another 3 while we still had 3 in stock? Have to consider it a success so far, we’ll see how the second does.

    1st Issue sold 12 out of 39. Current issue recd 40. Have early returned 20. What a waste of time & resources. What do they actually do with the sales data that they insist on us sending??
