Bill Kaufmann

Last Wednesday Bill Kaufmann from Corplogoware and the online good will store came in to talk to us about e-commerce. He passed around few interesting charts and booklets. One of the booklets had a list of somethings you might find in the online store and how they were sorted. it had criteria for almost everything you could think of. Flipping through the pages, one of the sections was on cameras and they had rules on how to sell old spy cameras, I thought that was pretty neat. One of the charts he passed around also detailed their profit for last month in comparison to other months and their budget. According to the chart they were at their best January. He also spoke of how some very valuable things are sometimes sold on the online good will store. The branch in Oregon sold a painting for many thousands of dollars.
All in all it was an interesting meeting, unfortunately he had to leave early, so we were unable to go have coffee.
