Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Commence of the TDF store

You get LibreOffice people to be the "local" people.  I know of a NY 
City company that needs a minimum of 4 items per order, and Drew knows a 
one-up company.

Get local people involved to be the "local/regional" providers for the 
items.  Trust them to provide a share/donation to LO.
Since you would have to deal with individuals for the EU area for 
printing/shipping, you will need to find them in the other regions that 
would be the go-between for the orders.

What guarantee do you have for people who will produce DVDs and actually 
donate part of the "sales" to LO?  It is a matter of Trust.

If I could do a business out of my government-subsidized apartment, I 
would sell copies of DVDs and LO items [polo shirts and such].  But I am 
limited in what I can do.  If someone wants a DVD from me, I could ship 
one to him/her with a "gift" to cover me costs, but I could not sell 
them one [as far as I know].  I shipped a copy [or three] of the NA-DVD 
to a guy in Malta.  He said he could help with the shipping costs.  
Whether or not he does provide me with it, it is up to him, but I could 
not sell him a copy of the DVD[s].

So it is a matter of Trust.  Do you trust people in the different 
regions of the world to provide regional LO items and donate some of the 
income to TDF/LO?  Do you trust someone in the next city or country that 
is your friend to do the same.  It is all about Trusting people to do 
the right thing.

If you want to know about the New York City company that I would use to 
print/embroider shirts, hats, etc., send me direct email off the list.
