Just a reminder that payouts happen quarterly now, not monthly. Please contact Chandra with any questions or concerns at 907-319-9030. Thanks!
I know we've gotten drastically behind in payouts and consignment. Starting a large-scale childcare facility and upgrading a dilapidated old school has been the hardest thing we've ever done. It's not an excuse for not getting people their earned money, and I understand that, but it's the truth of the matter. The school took precedence, because we as a community are in desperate need of childcare.
As we are turning the corner to open at the childcare facility, I have finally updated my consignment expense report and have made a list of all consignment payments I'm behind on. I have the finances to make sure everyone is payed up to date, and will get those payments out this weekend.
With that said, the model of paying out consignors every month will not be feasible and we will be moving to paying out quarterly. We will also be requiring folks to sign up for direct deposit or Venmo to be paid. Checks, stamps, envelopes, and the labor associated with manual payouts is no longer something we can afford to do if we are to keep consignment percentages the same. If people require a check, a service fee will be subtracted from their payouts.
I apologize to those we have let down during this time and I take full responsibility for our shortcomings.
If you have any suggestions or concerns, please direct them to me(chandra), not my employees, as they are doing the best they can under the circumstances.
Also, please be kind.
