Make money selling your own Beautiful wall calendar!

Calendars are BIG, and a profitable way to keep your message in front of your customers, donors, and supporters all year long.

After a huge success for 2021, Big Big SLO is looking for a small number of organizations to partner with for custom 2022 calendars. Here’s how it works:

Online sales kick off in September and we will finalize quantities and send to print in November.

Design

Big Big SLO will handle the design and all aspects of production. You control all the content, including:

PHOTOS: Use your own, or choose from any of the images in Paul’s library. If there are any shots you’d like to include but you don’t have yet, Paul can shoot and edit them for you.
HOLIDAYS: Choose from a comprehensive list of holidays to give your calendar just the right tone.
SPECIAL DATES: Include any dates that are important to your organization or industry.
USE THE EXTRA BOXES on the calendar grids for custom messaging.
SPECIFICATIONS: 28 Pages / 12” x 9” / professionally printed on 100# gloss white text & 100# gloss white cover. Enough pages to include a custom cover, back cover, and full page spread after December to highlight your business or organization. I’m happy to get a sample to you.

fulfillment

There are 3 ways to get these into the hands of your customers:

Online Sales: You’ll have a dedicated page on BigBigSLO.com for your organization’s calendar, with online ordering. You receive a share of sales (more on that below). We handle the order and deliver directly to your customer.
Order boxes of calendars delivered directly to you. These must be in increments of 100. This is potentially the most profitable way, especially if your customers can pick them up at your location or you can otherwise easily distribute them.
BOTH! Maybe you want 100 or 200 to sell internally or give away, and want us to handle the online sales. This could be the best of both worlds to give you maximum flexibility.

How Does this work?
we’ve got a couple options!

1) ONLINE SALES - NO UPFRONT COST TO YOU

50% of gross sales to you! We do it all - from design to sales on your own page on bigbigslo.com to delivery to your customer. Start marketing in September and close web sales in November - just in time for the holidays. Pricing:

Single Calendars - $20 retail cost, and you make $10 per calendar!
3 Pack - $50 retail cost, and you make $25 per pack!
8 Pack - $100 retail cost, and you make $50 per pack!

2) BULK CALENDARS - YOU SELL & DISTRIBUTE

You may want to sell your calendars separately, give some away as gifts, or both. Bulk calendars must be purchased in quantities of 100. Pricing:

100 Calendars: $795. If you sold them for $20 each, the profit potential is $2,000 - $795= $1,205.
200 calendars: $1,395. If you sold them for $20 each, the profit potential is $4,000 - $1,395= $2,605.
300 calendars: $1,895. If you sold them for $20 each, the profit potential is $6,000 - $1,895= $4,105.
400 calendars: $2,295. If you sold them for $20 each, the profit potential is $8,000 - $2,295= $5,705.

3) DO BOTH!

You may want to run online sales through Big Big SLO and also give a bunch away as client appreciation gifts or sell some at your location. Let’s find what works best for you!
