Vendors at PorcFest have been generally accepting of alternative currencies, especially sound ones using or backed with precious metals. But what can we do to not only improve acceptance, but get them to start listing their prices in other currencies.

COMMUNITIES ISSUE THEIR OWN CURRENCY TO KEEP CASH FLOWING

Submitted by Firewall99 on

This is from a USA Today article (http://www.usatoday.com/money/economy/2009-04-05-scrip_N.htm) and is about paper currency, but the concept would work just as well for Shire Silver:

I don't know who could do this, but I believe we have the talent available now.

Imagine those Visa commercials, where everyone is lining up at a retailer to consume. They are all using their credit cards, like good little dancing zombies, and everything is going smoothly until someone tries using cash or a check.

Dreepa Farms should be able to get us some branded clothing. I think it is a good idea for anyone doing our version of Liberty Dollar Associates or Currency Offices to be wearing our stuff.

Dreepa Farms:

Yes smaller runs are possible..the supplier charges more. (totally depends on the size) yes to jackets (although I will have to check) Sweatshirts look super nice and are super thick..I just got some Ron Paul sweats but a run of 40 costs betwen 23 - 26 FRN a sweatshirt.

We will have a table at the Liberty Forum in January. We will need volunteers to man the booth, as well as stuff to hand out and sell.

Any volunteers?

Any ideas for handouts or sale items?

Should we have a survey to see what the crowd thinks are aceptable options? (Stuff like what sort of markup above spot is acceptable and what sort of pricing system would be acceptable).
