Steady Improvement in Sector 1

Hello Elves!

Last week was pretty good for us. Here is where we stand with our Elf count:

North Pole Tracker Elves: 5,674
Freelance Tracker Elves: 779,645
Total Tracker Elves: 785,319

I had hoped to be above a million elves by now for the Sector but I cannot complain We grew 39% in just a week. So that’s pretty good. But you know what’s even better? Check out our report numbers:

North Pole Tracker Elf Reports YTD: 23,831
Freelance Tracker Elf Reports YTD: 3,040,616
Total Tracker Elf Reports YTD: 3,064,446

3 million in a week! That’s really good – a better than 54% improvement in just a week. Fabulous.

Feedback from Santa this week for Sector 1:
Friends of Sector 1, thank you! That was an exceptional week. In reviewing reports with Elf Randi and her team we are seeing some really good things come through. Sector 1 is a big area and I would tell you that I’m feeling pretty good about Australia and New Zealand. Our coverage and reporting in those two great areas is coming along nicely. I’m concerned about areas in the South Pacific like Fiji, Samoa, Tonga and other small island chains. I’ve asked Randi to really focus on finding us good tracker elves in those areas.

Keep the weather reports coming. The weather in that part of the world is exceptional at this time of year but it changes quickly. I want to be really on top of it and you can count on us asking for a lot of weather updates, especially as we get close to flight time.

I’m also going to encourage more pictures coming in from all areas of the sector. We got many sent in last week with concerns about the sleigh fitting in certain areas. These are great and I’ve decided I want more of them, if you can.

Thanks and keep up the good work Sector 1 — Santa
