Calendar Girl Blog: The Future

What does the future hold for Breast of Canada?

After assessing the numbers for one of my U.S. distributors, I had to end my relationship with them. In business speak, the margins were way to thin. This result was not from lack of trying. We gave it three year's of effort. But even after three years, my per unit return was under one dollar.

The majority of the calendars sell from my website so loosing a distributor is of less concern than say loosing my printer. But the ease of having a distributor that I can ship 150 calendars to instead of me shipping to 150 customers bears mention. More work is not something I'm trying to develop.

Calendar Girl, a former fortune teller, hoped to read her tea leaves and forecast the future. But no tea leaves poured forth. Does this cups message mean clear sailing or no future in sight? Or maybe Calendar Girl should simply enjoy drinking the tea and trust that the calendar business will work out as it should.
