Consignment
Using The Original Poster Company’s consignment system, you will have no risk of unsold designs or slow moving stock, and your cashflow will be untouched leaving you free to concentrate on running your business.
After an initial discussion with your local area franchisee, the best ranges to suit your customers will be identified, and the most space efficient display system will be selected. Your local area franchisee will then install the stock on the display and you will pay nothing – not one penny – until your next merchandising visit (usually 1 month later) and even then you will only pay for the stock that you have sold – you will never have to pay for any remaining stock. Bear in mind of course that you will usually be operating at around 100% mark-up basis, meaning that you will only actually be paying back half what you have received through the till!
How will I be invoiced?
The local area franchisee will write you out an invoice for the cards that you have sold at the time of his merchandising visit. Whilst this invoice will be payable immediately, you will have had the stock for around 30 days already, and even then you are only asked to pay for the cards that you have sold!
What if I have damaged cards?
The local area franchisee will remove these and replace them at his own expense, unless the damage is so extreme that it would be more appropriate to claim them under an insurance policy (in the event of fire for example).
