Right, we've got stickers and the flyers are on the way now, maybe it's time we started a new section which sells the stickers and provides the link for the different types of flyers.

Just an idea, what's peoples thoughts?

I've talked to chris the mod about this a lot (hence my sub title)

It seems like its not really possible. But i definately think the page about ordering stickers should be simplified, if i was in 2 minds whether to get some i'd look at that page, get a bit confused and think, oh i wont bother!

Also, its not really worth having a shop just for stickers and with disappointing sticker sales its unlikely any other site branded stuff will ever be made

As crofty said we've had quite a talk about this, we have the lot section on the forum, and to be fair the 'shop' would only have one thing for sale, the stickers, so would seem a bit bare But i do agree with crofty the sticker thread needs to be overly simplifed, and when i get a few mins i shall look to sort that out, with croftys approval of course!

The idea was to experiment with the sticker's and see the sales as we wanted to get some shirts made the the site but at the current time with the lack of interest the idea just wouldn't work and the costs would be far too much.

The stickers are literally at cost price with cashing of cheques, posting the letters not included, we do that in our spare time.

The shop idea would not work at the current time but maybe in the future we if there was more interest we could make this work.

ChrisC's new instructions are much clearer, i hope they help to drive the sales of stickers, we just need to make sure we keep slipping them into conversations so they don't get forgotten about!

I was in two minds about the stickers at first but I am now really glad I have put them in - I have 4 in total! Even with the priv glass you can see them (has to be a clean window and be sunny) but they look really good. Come on people for £2.29 theyre a bargain. Get raiding that piggy bank!

I have two on the rear window, just above the wiper and just below the hi level brake light, and the other two are on the rear side windows. If you look at my section in the forecourt you may be able to see them. They don't tend to come out too well on photos because of the priv glass.

Yep they do look great in your car wherever you choose to put them. They are excellent quailty and you won't find stickers of this type cheaper anywhere!

I agree...they look the muts nuts. They're the right size to go anywhere without looking too overpowering or too big. ST_GTR_06 you've seen mine now...so go buy some!!!

It's not all about hard sale.

Me and the Mods spent quite a bit of time finding the best looking stickers in the best colour possible and had prototypes printed to make sure they were the standard and quality we wanted. They were so we put in an order of 100 stickers which was over £100...

This money was paid upfront and there is no profit to be made, so all that we are trying to do is get back some of the cash which is slowly happening.

To get off this point though,

If people order the stickers it's always nice to think they are ordering because they like the site and would like to have the stickers in their cars (which look very smart) and support the club that they are apart of. I also think that when people have site stickers in their cars (any site) it gives the car a little more being, rather than just being another car, its apart of something... shows the owner loves the car and takes care of it.

Theres my little blast anyway

but you do still need to sell them.... you call it hard selling but its just a case of reminding people they are available and persuading them. You know that once people get them they will be pleased anyway!
