Re: selling on consignment

[Guest guest]

I've heard anywhere from 20 - 50%, with or without a monthly fee or working

required.

Just make sure you do the numbers before you sign, and that the

responsibilities and liabilities for both sides are well defined. For

instance, at 50% commission, how many bars would you have to sell each month

to make it worth your while?

Sue,

Look for something really fair and well managed The best thing is to

have them buy a wholesale tray of your products. The percentages have

been more fair lately than years past. Anything more than them wanting

30% and a monthly fee, I'd stay away from. Plus make sue you inventory

it well. Some were " missing " and they never resolved it.
