We're looking to reprint our merchandise range plus add some more items but there are complications and I'd like your
feedback to help me make my deciision. Basically, will you buy them?
This link will show you the last batch of
Merchandise Itemswe offered in the
shop, all out of stock but shows the
pic and the price. Some were also used as giveaways.
We're now thinking of reordering the lot, but also adding shirts and wheel covers. Interested in your
feedback to the following:
1. are shirts too difficult buying over the internet with sizing? I'd prefer to just stock one size, say Large or XL. I'd also like just one style, and would like something reasonably nice like a polo shirt, or a blue bush shirt with an embroidered pocket. What about a Member's Shirt?
2. wheel covers will feature our circular logo and available for sale and also used as competition giveaways. We can either print 2 or 3 colours depending on what colour cover we choose. If we choose the popular black cover then they will cost a little more, than if I chose a white cover. Is white out of the question? Who has had experience with a white cover?
3. should we bother with the stubby holders? we can get them at the right price, but because they don't pack flat they have to be sent as a parcel so only good if you're buying other things from the
shop and its all going in a 3kg satchel (which all our orders over 500g go in anyway). ie. if just buying a couple of maps, a stubby holder would mean you'd have to pay extra postage ($7.80) when you couldn't got the maps only posted for $1.50.
4. should we bother with the mouse mats? they are handy, pack flat and relate to the computer usage, but because they remain inside your
home or office they don't work as a talking point to promote ExplorOz like a stubby holder would.
5. the cap was excellent but if you're all keen to buy them I can get them at a better price.
If you can appreciate the only way to get good pricing is to buy in bulk of over 100 items at a time. So, I'd rather get a really big bulk order on stuff that I feel confident you'll buy.
Also, do you think "ExplorOz Team Truck" sounds wanky to put as a graphic on our vehicle beside the logo? If not, what should we put?Trying to design the car graphics now so that the car is recognisable and a good marketing tool.
