The product possibilities are practically endless. If you can print your logo on it, you can
sell it. If you can also print your site address on it, so much the better. The more products


you offer, the more sales you’ll generate and, ultimately, the more money you’ll earn.


Don’t forget the “upsell.” The upsell is selling additional products to the same cus-

tomer, usually ones that compliment the original sale. It’s anybody’s guess how much ad-


ditional revenue McDonald’s® brings in with the simple added line, “Would you like


fries with that?” Use the same technique. When a fan, a.k.a. customer, buys a shirt, offer
them a hat to go with it. If they buy a keychain, how about a USB drive to hang on it?
Ensuring that up-sell systems work, you’ll need to train your people at the table. Sure,
some will forget to ask customers about additional items at first. But, over time, the up-
sell can bring quite a bit of additional revenue.
