Urgent Order Dilemma: Cancel or Reassign? | Expert Advice from Kristy

In summary, if you are unable to fulfill an urgent order, the best course of action is to cancel the order. You can also reassign the order to another consultant who is available and willing to fulfill it in a timely manner. If you are the only consultant available, it is important to communicate with the customer and try your best to fulfill the order. If you are going on vacation, it is best to reassign the order to another consultant or offer to fulfill it before or after your vacation. The best option for handling an urgent order will depend on the specific situation and it is important to communicate with the customer and consider their needs when making a decision.

Hi. I am leaving to go clean my new house in an hour and a half.

Here is my question!

I got a call from HO yesterday that a customer had ordered an item that is no longer available. (Don't know how I missed that, but I did!) Cancelling the order will effect the host benefits. Can I cancel that order, but add an order under another guest's name? I have to resolve it by noon today, and there is no way that I can reach the guest before that time.

What would you do?

Thanks!
Kristy
 
I'd call HO and ask if you can substitute an item... then if it's necessary...after the show comes, you can do an exchange right?
 
Hi Kristy,I would suggest contacting the guest who placed the order and explaining the situation to them. See if they are willing to switch their order to a different item or cancel it altogether. If they are not able to be reached before noon, I would recommend contacting the host to discuss the situation and see if they have any suggestions or solutions. Ultimately, it's important to communicate with all parties involved and find a solution that works for everyone. Good luck with your cleaning and resolving this issue!
