I am thinking about forming the "Angler's Outlet Fishing Tackle Club.
The yearly membership would be $25.00
You would receive a 15% discount on items that I stock in the store (in store prices compatible with Walmart).
On special order items which I do not normally stock would be cost plus 20%.
I would also have "club specials" which would be discounted much more.
If you bought $200.00 over the period of a year your discount would be $30.00 which would more than cover your membership fee.

| Well Billy, the concept is a very good one with the exception of the special order surcharge in my opinion. That's alot for an item that possibly will come from one of your regular tackle suppliers and shouldn't boost your freight that much. Unless someone is ordering a 28' CC boat with double 225's hangin' on the back and that size sale shouldn't make you frown too much! I would think that the "special order at no added cost" concept would be a very good drawing card for those who know the limitations of your store's inventory but still want to support you in your club. As long as it is used within certain parameters, I can see it as a good customer relations plus for you. But I live in Freeport and any savings you could possible offer me would be eaten up before I drive a quarter of the way over to Pace!! And I am quite sure that there are others who feel the same way from wherever they live. If I vote, it would only artificially inflate your results as I have no plans of driving that far to buy a gotcha and a few pyramid weights. Edit: OK, I changed my vote from a "non-vote" to a "interesting idea" vote. I hope that helps your decision making.

| Well personaly I dis like the club thing. It in my opinion, it is like going to the grocery store and producing a card for a cheaper price. I hate it. Infact it bothers me enough that I will not shop those stores. If you can afford to give some the price break give it to all. Selling in volume is were the money is at. Ok sorry for the rant but you asked. Paul Lewis Oh yea I voted NO LOL

Special ordering a Penn Special Senator 113H at current pricing for a club member would be $92.50
Basspro Shop price $99.99
Ebay $98 and up for a new one

A "Club" and a "Grocery Store Discount Card" is a totally different concept

| Sounds like "Sam's Club". Sure works for them; except you have to join before you even get in the store! Your store is a bit out of my normal travel, but I know small stores need all the help promoting and selling they can conjure up. Good luck!
