Our software attracts the lower cost for XChangeIT because it produces sales files.
Several people asked me about Master Chef as an example of how the allocations were mucked up.
So I took it up with the magazine distributor. What they did as it was a new magazine was base its allocations on other titles. They however held back many because what they did was use the sales data on the first days of sale to create extra orders. That is why many people who do not send sales data did not get more allocation. You need to send in your sales data.
If your question is are these sales files are being used. The answer is YES. If your next question is, does it cost me to not to send it. Again the answer is YES.
