What are we spending the £1555.58 on?

It's two major mailouts - Waterstones/Bookseller/Library and PR

We have the 500 stamps and the labels for the first waterstones mailout. This will actually come in the form of postcards. I am printing 5000 double sided colour postcards which will work as both trade and consumer publicity. There are 340 or so Waterstones so with the initial stamps I can also hit 160 others (libraries and independents) I'll source the 160 other addresses personally but if necessary we can but a list of childrens booksellers from the booksellers association here at £23.50/hundred http://www.booksellers.org.uk/bookshop_dir/bs_list_form.asp



we also need T-Shirts - 100 of them in kids (2-4) size for the PR mailout, as well as postage (around 1.92 per pack) and also 100 tough plastic mailbags for the PR



Postcards - £233.83

T-shirts - £500

PR Mailout Postage £192

PR Mailout Bags - £24.48

Total - £950.31

leaving a balance of £605.27 for later efforts and float.
