Glad I could make you laugh! Usually I just piss people off since I actually have a brain in my head & know how to use it & some folks just flat don't like that.

My recollection (I'd have to go back to our original discussions to get the actual numbers) is that we make something on the order of 10% on ANC merchandise. It has never been made clear what our margins are on merchandise we provide, such as Trails. I would therefore guess that our margins vary from one item to the next. I asked in my post above, but haven't heard back yet, what our CoGS are. In particular, it would be helpful to have them broken out by line item or clessification for a more informed analysis.cmc said:our margins with ANC have not changed, their fee is in the shipping amount. not an issue... the issue is we are not selling much... website is not easy to use, and there are many others selling neat shirts and other stuff out there...

swagdan said:Event merchandise. The best way to motivate participants and observers is to purchase merchandise is to offer event specific merchandise ie; TLCA 2006 Moab specific designs etc...take pre-orders and then only bring a limited amount to the event. Offer the standard products as well at the event. The pre-order will ensure a revenue stream (to at least cover costs) and train participants to visit the store and buy early and buy often. Like concert tees, everyone wants the "tour" shirt.....because they were there.
