[us-marketing] RE: [board-discuss] Re: LibreOffice Swag/Merchandise Bulk Purchase?

Again Joel I would like to offer my experiences and knowhow from what I am
learning through my thesis in regards to E-commerce as well setting up a
website as such too.

 

Joel I was thinking

 

Couldn't we classify the swag according to donation level and then whenever
someone donates let's say 20 euros they get a mug etc.

Already being investigated but legal issues with non profit status is an
issue. We are all hoping it happens though :)

Seeing a discussion of this. I would like to propose something here.

Why not setup an e-commerce site for people that want to purchase swag
outside of contests as their way of donating so to speak to the TDF.

I am versed in setting up word press as an E-Commerce Site, and can get it
to interface with the TDF's PayPal.

And once we ship, we send some more. Always good for everyone to have one at
hand to share ;-)

I was lucky to be able to order a small amount for an interesting price..

Can be if one wishes.
You may also take the plain LibreOffice logo of course or make something
else.

Not that much, and as far as I know mostly small sizes.

Or the other way round.
Just depends on whats most practical for ordering / payment / storage and
sharing.

Yes, that is interesting.

The more designs the merrier, IMO :-)
