Wildlife Calendars

For the coming new year, I’m putting together a table-top calendar of some of my best Wildlife Photographs. The plan is to get this printed with one of the best printers in India with the best color and paper quality. Also want to use this as an opportunity to raise funds for the conservation projects at BR hills.

To cover the costs of this good quality printing, I need some large-scale orders. Basically looking for some corporate orders of 500+ calendars. Do let me know if you or your company is interested in these calendars where part of the profits actually go back for wildlife conservation.

Update : The caldendars will cost Rs 100 if its a large order (1000+) and will be around Rs 120 – 180 if its an order less than 500 copies.

    Cost ?

    Could you give me a rough idea of the cost per calendar ?
    We dont have 500+ ppl at TW India, but I think I can help sell a few out here.

    On 25th , right after your presentation, just speak about this too. And in that forum prob you can say you need some corp-orders of 500+. Am sure it’ll work out.Even if our firm doesn’t show any interest,participants can give a bulk order.What say ?

    Get 100 printed, and sell them to LJers, please. I swear I’ll buy one, or two maybe.

    u can print a few copies and sell it initially. It will be easier to convince the HR or someone in the company to arrange for mass ordering. After all, everybody is not lucky enough to be on LJ to have seen your pics before;)

    Btw, please let us know.Will try my best to talk to whomsoever I can.

    How does the calendar look. ?

    The buyers would be interested in seeing what it has and how it looks and feels.

    Might be better to aggregate a large number of micro orders into one huge order. But then again, logistics would be the concern…

    w00t!

    Will buy. Gotta pdf or a preview of the calendar? That will probably make a lot more ppl queue up to buy it.

    Have you thought of also selling them online via Cafepress or a model similar to Shutterfly?
