Virtual Other Fowl Calendar Contest - Portrait Format - Ends 9/25/2022

[Painted Calls]

I'd really like to do one, but they require a lot of work, and unless one buys a lot, they are pretty expensive. We'd have to buy at least 500, and I don't think we could sell 500.

Do a poll. Put out some feelers. You know how many you need to sell. If it comes close, do it. If not, scrap it.

 

[Painted Calls]

Are there no other avenues for selling calendars? Certain affiliate partnerships?

They did that with the last one....still not enough interest.....I bought a bunch of them pre-publishing, so that they would print a calendar....but it didn't do well.

Part of the problem is getting people to commit to buying some. I think many people will say they want one or two, but when the time comes to buy them, they won't.

I don't think so. I guess one could try to sell them on Etsy or eBay, but thinking about that and the problems that could arise makes me think it's not worth the hassle.

Yeah, you would really have to aggressively market it and then there's all the legal mumbo-jumbo, just too much work and expense.

Exactly. My fear is people would get it, then say it was crap and want their money back, or people would say they never received it and want their money back.

It's a shame people's word didn't mean anything anymore. More honesty would also be nice.
