OK, so assuming we have 10 "group discounts" that order 30 issues--pretty ambitious, but what the heck, it's hypothetical. That would cost us $154 per year in postage. 30 memberships rates a 20% discount = $480 per year x 10 groups = $4800.
If TAG costs AGA $2.50 per issue x 4 issues per year x 30 memberships x 10 groups = $3000 per year.
plus $154 for postage = $3154.00 in expenses which is a profit of only $1646.00. Hmmmmm.Doesn't seem like a lot, but it's not a loss. We *would* have to get more than 1000 TAGs printed, though.
