I love this simple yet effective display of plush I saw on the Wild Republic stand at the Gift fair in Sydney recently. It makes a broad range of products accessible to adults and kids. At the front of a newsagency, this display would attract new shoppers, younger shoppers and those who shop for young people. A display like this would get people looking at your business differently.
The display itself would be easy to replicate as it is made of a series of boxes. I love it.
you are regularly talking about Plush sales yet we sell very little plush.
Carol three years ago I was doing under $10,000 a year and now I am doing close to $100,000 a year. Most of the growth is to new customers.
Carol, there are many newsXpress stores do exceptionally well in the plush category thanks to the advice and supplier network is available to us. Also, our members encouage each other on taking on non traditional newsagency lines. That is why it is so good to be part of this group and to have someone like Mark as our CEO.
