Hi there y'all I know about the discussion on ECF, and lots of emails/calls. I want to address concerns about what is going on.
New customers may not realize that I mix everything myself, whereas some places hand mix but have several people doing so. I do it alone for greatest consistency and quality control. This is the main reason for the usual 3-4 day period between order and shipping. This does not account for the recent delays, but contributes to it.
Shipping I know some don't like paying for shipping when the wait time is long. Shipping is a separate service and you are paying only what the post office requires for postage, while getting a reasonable shipping time AND tracking (which is very important). The recent delays are due to processing, not shipping.
DELAYS:
My delay began at Christmas with a couple of days off and then there was a debilitating illness for several days. I didn't feel that is was appropriate to mix juices while I was sick and I mean I was sick!!
There was also the website change that came in the middle of all this. While trying to catch up from that, there was a second illness (darn kids), snow days, which meant my post office closed, and huge order volume on top of that.
We will try to have more info on the site about delays, so please check the
News and Updates. Many questions that come in emails every day could have been answered by reading the
Shipping,
FAQ, and
News links, plus the news ticker. We notice people aren't often reading this stuff please check it!!
NEWSLETTER: We have sent out newsletters in the past.....only a few. What we found is people who signed up for the newsletter would email complaining or reporting them as spam. I felt as though ya'll didn't want me to email so I don't send out as much as I could.
I am working day and night to get back to the standard 3-4 day processing time as soon as I can. I Am Very Sorry again for the delay, I am including a free bottle buddy to everyone for the waiting.
I am asking everyone to Please Please bear with me while I get caught up. I promise I will do my Very Very Best to get caught up as Fast as I can!
All but a couple of orders from the 20th will go out Monday, 1/31. The remainder of the 20th and orders from the 21st and 22nd will go out on Tuesday 2/1. We will try to post more current information on what days are being worked on and shipped in the
News and Updates page on the website.
