Australia Distributor 11.1.04
11-1-04
We have decided to terminate our relationship with our Australia distributor. While the shipping costs were reduced, we were unable to find a way to honor the repurchase discounts, return policy, etc. It's difficult for someone else to "be" Sonlight and all the things we are to our customers. If it comes up, just tell customers that it wasn't feasible at this time.

We can start referring customers and potential customers to our new distributor in Australia. We are in the process of sending inventory to John Florance. Customers will place their order with John and he will fulfill the order and place a large order for items he doesn't have in stock. We will ship all orders directly to John. This should result in shorter delivery times and much lower freight charges. Customers will deal with him directly on all issues related to ordering such as returns, etc.
Here is his information:

Focus on the Family/Focus on Your Child
Focus on the Family is going to use their September, 2003 broadcasts to promote their new website/service called "Focus on your Child." Focus on your Child.com is going to "feature" Sonlight Curriculum. I'll have more information about this in the future.
Focus has asked us to make this new preschool package that they can promote to their clients. On August 25th, Focus on the F. is going to send an email to their clients that are categorized as "young children" to promote our new Preschool package. I've asked Sharen to send us a copy of the email that Focus sends out so that we can be prepared for questions.
Sonlight has created several new packages for FOF that will be featured on the “Focus on Your Child” website. FOYC will be mentioned on the FOF radio broadcast. The packages are:
- Read to Me Little Explorer (weeks 1 – 12)
- Complete Kit (weeks 13 – 36)
- Complete Set
