FYI - the reason I ask is that we're one of the few companies that
currently has licensed products for sale (with offerings other than the
same 'ol boring T-shirts). They are large blankets with the designs
knitted in.
While the idea of the Internet economy is nice, it's hard to make sales
just hoping that people find you through occasional searches on Google,
in eBay or on Amazon (we dropped that last one because of the costs,
along with pay-per-click ads which were not the least bit effective).
Which again is why we're looking for ways to directly reach the fans.
They must be out there, otherwise why would Dreamworks put in the time
and money for a big screen Peabody & Sherman project?
