Merchandising Report

Greetings Fair Folkies,

I placed another order for 47 Play Much shirts and sold 10 at the Birthday show. Staples made an error in the quantities, so we will be getting 8 more. This should keep us set for a while with that design. I spent around $400 (will have the bill for Rachel at the meeting). We are selling them a bit above cost to keep this a self-funding form of joy and promotion (vs a money maker).

The current (making it up as we go along) plan is as follows:

- “Minstrel Man” shirts – for Festival

- Water bottles with a very cool design that my brilliant co-chair came up with – for Festival.

- Will order a few copies of Rise up Singing – For Festival

- Redesign of the Mandela tee – later this year or early 2012, after recouping costs from other items (and finding someone to recreate the artwork).

That’s keeping us busy… and well clothed.

See y’all on Tuesday.

Robin
