My mind keeps wandering back to the New York show. Could you give us more on this? What kind of booth would GCU put up and how? Would some of the artists need to be there physically ahead of time and how many and how much? Exactly what will the format be? Will GCU have actual sized cards? I'm sure there has to be something larger to catch people's eye. A monitor? Would GCU have different catagories? (ie:Wedding, Birthday, ADOPTION TRIAD....
) Will you have specific artists cover specific catagories? I would assume a decision is needed sometime well ahead of the show as to who is going and who is not? I would assume GCU will make the ultimate decision as to who CAN participate out of those willing and available to participate?
Thanks for your feedback, Mindy.
Sue
Hi Sue,
You're way ahead of us
but good thinking. We probably won't start pulling details together until the end of year this year when we make a go or no go decision.
At a very high level here are some thoughts:
1) The GCU booth in general would represent our community at large - all artists. We would also do some new artist prospecting. Perhaps we'd feature best selling cards in a handful of categories.
2) Artists who wish to participate in person would contribute by:
a) $ contribution
b) Sign up for specific time slots to work the booth
c) Artists would need to be able to tell the GCU story as well as rep. their own cards and other cards/artists if inquired about
3) Booth decor would be handled by us and is honestly the largest concern as it can get very $$. We would really have to get creative on this to showcase our community and offerings within a reasonable budget.
