Cards for Reciprocity and Merchants
Posted: Fri Sep 21, 2007 8:45 amI have been talking with one of TFA's newest supporters, Rob Anderson, about materials for TFA members. Rob worked the Pope gun show in Franklin recently and was so excited about it he has gone out and made the arrangements on his own to have a booth donated at the Middle Tennessee Military Collectors show in Nashville which will be on Thanksgiving weekend. I believe that this will be the first time that we have had a presence at that show.
Anyhow, Rob is in the paper business with Dennis Paper in Nashville. He is also undertaking the task (along the lines of what can I do that I am good at) to get new reciprocity cards printed as well as merchant cards (no guns = no $).
At present, we are planning to use the reciprocity cards as enclosures in the TFA renewal and membership packets and also as handouts at the gunshows. We are investigating the costs of having the laminated so that they will be more durable than a standard business card. For those of you who recall the prior cards, the new cards will also have the "statement of rights" on the reverse in case you are involved in a shooting.
The second set of cards are the merchant cards which are summed up as a polite way of saying "no guns = no $". We are planning to produce these in packets of 10, 50, 100 or whatever works and sell them at a nominal cost to cover shipping and printing costs.
What I am asking for is a little help and for Rob to actually bottle the initiative he has undertaken as well as some of the rest of you (Tim, James, Pat, Buford, etc.) so that we can get things rolling again.
I know I am the bottleneck for TFA and I want to get a team of leaders in place to get rid of that bottleneck.
