That is an easy $700 in sales instead of inventory sitting on a shelf now.
Then I would have had $700 less on my down payment 😂😂

No. Just $28. I doubt you would have bought their entire inventory of the one style of shirt. My point was that they spent money on each attendee's swag when they should have been making money off each attendee. Not only that, but they competed with their own business (Ford's Garage) by providing alternative food options with the food trucks.

I feel the same way. I was disappointed with Greenway and the way the hosted the event. I felt like they didn’t want us there. None of the employees there even said hi to us, and they stuck the Broncos in a weird location in my opinion. Definitely not like some of these other locations that I have seen. A missed opportunity on their part for sure!
This didn't surprise me at all considering how rude and uninformed they were when I called last year asking what deals they were offering for Bronco orders. In October the guy told me there were no deals to offer because no one knew how much the Broncos were going to cost and any dealer telling me otherwise was lying. IN OCTOBER! :rolleyes:

If it had a Bronco logo, big chance you would have gotten my $$😂😂 i already have $$ tied up in decal, patches, and shirt production 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ The work shirt will have the “est” logo on the back and the front will have the trim logo. For shirts I’m looking at doing the “FL6G” on the left chest and trim badge on the back...

Same with the local dealer here in October. I gave them the opportunity to earn my business, but they were boasting about 100+ reservations at the time and not concerned about trying to gain another (I wrote up a detailed post in the Florida sub-forum back in October). It's as if some of these dealers are proud of their participation trophy. A dealer the size of Bozard with presence visible facing I95 should have had 10x the reservations they do. But I'm not surprised either as their "Bronco Specialist" was skateboarding on the dealer's lot ignoring potential customers standing in line waiting to view the Broncos. Now, no one likes a pushy salesman, but there is a way they can engage the customer without the direct sales pitch. Exposing the dealer to liability skateboarding on the premises isn't it.

They did. It was an odd overall effort on their part. They have a fantastic Ford's Garage on their campus. Yet, they had food trucks there. :unsure: Seems like a conflict in business strategy to provide alternative eating options. They could have driven more food sales with a simple 10% off food/merchandise that ultimately would have made them more money rather than spending money on swag that no one wants. Also, there is the option to buy gift merchandise in the Ford's Garage so people wouldn't feel compelled to eat if they weren't hungry. But there was a unique Bronco shirt that was for sale at Ford's Garage, but their staff didn't even have it on display. Out of the corner of my eye, I spied it and the associate just said that they came in the other day. WTF? They should be out front and center at $28/shirt they would have sold every one in the stack. Overall it was a beautiful day, but a lot of missed opportunity.
There was a young lady there handing out sample menus and inviting folks over. She gave me a card for a free appetizer. It was about the time you were in the coral.
I was psyched about the swag until I saw everything had "Bozard Bronco" on it. I didn't throw it away thought, kids love that crap.
I may have to call them and see if they still have any Bronco T-Shirts left. I can always go to the Ryobi store! :)

The Bronco shirt in the Ford's Garage was for females. But if you have someone in mind, I'm sure they would love it.
