 All,
I'll pitch in.  I pledge $100.

 I appreciate that members are willing to print flyers on their home computer. Another organization I belong to locally does this as well - however the quality of our end product varies greatly, and even the best don’t match the quality of print house production. And the cost still exists, it’s just defrayed to member’s pockets. My guess is that it’s more expensive per-unit than a production house bulk job. 
Rather than printing at home, would members be willing to donate $xx to the society for centralized printing and shipping? Home-printed versions could be used as filler if their stash is exhausted for a given show. I’d be willing to pitch in. On the surface, I think this form of advertising (high-quality product well displayed at member’s personal tables) would certainly help promote awareness of the Society.

I agree that we should spend a little extra. I also think we should have a couple issues of the Arrow on display, if that is possibly. It definitely stands out.

Doing the brochure in color would make it more eye-catching for train show goers and put on a good impression of the society. Some local charities or churches might be able to hook you up with a printer who is not expensive.

Why complicate things?  I think we need one, catch-all flyer for everything. One that could be downloaded and printed out to be passed out at train shows, events, passed out to random clusters of railfans, etc.  Doesn't have to be in color or fancy -- just serve the basic purpose.

Jim,

A suggestion: If a commissary flyer were put together in a PDF format, perhaps members could print their own at home for use at a show.  This would reduce costs of printing and mailing a glossy print document.  How many would actually be required at any show?  Most likely, not every attendee would have an interest.

As I know everyone is well a aware, the cost of everything has skyrocketed over the last few years and this includes printing services.  More membership brochures are currently being done so that we can hand them out at the shows where we will be represented.  Since we haven't figured out how to get commissary stock out to those who will be representing us at a reasonable price yet (let us know if you have ideas/suggestions), I sure would like to have a one-page, commissary flyer to give interested folks along with the membership brochure.

The problem is, of course, cost.  Does anyone out there have access to copy/print capabilities that could produce such a flyer in quantity for a reasonable price, obviously the lower the better.

This could help us boost our sales and allow us to do more things in the future.

Please chime in if you have or are aware of anything that could help in this area.

Thanks,

Jim Cochran
