List Mailing Services' Update:
Reviewed Aizha's work, Sent more advertising emails via different list mailers (where available).
About Aizha's productivity: Here is her latest productivity report
About the speed comparision with me, I think I am able to earn more credits because I have a faster PC than Aizha. For this kind of task, its very important that you have a fast PC because it involves opening of a lot of tabs at the same time which takes a lot of CPU and RAM usage.
I am not sure whether you're already aware of that or not, but I actually asked for the system specification and internet speed screenshots from all shortlisted candidates, but unfortunately all candidates had almost similar PC specifications. That is why I wanted to split test this with another candidate. Otherwise I am closely reviewing her screenshots and I think she is doing it right way.
About the list mailer training manual, Aizha has only asked me about where she would get credits information in each list mailer. To explain that I created another manual showing and explaining it with illustrations. I have saved the said training manual into the same Dropbox folder.
About tracking and comparison of all list mailers, it was not possible to create various short links with the same original link. For example; from our blogger landing page we can only create one shortened link, therefore I created individual tracking link for each list mailer within the viralurl and will use a separate link for all list mailers in future.

Administrative Support:
