Only Band Merchandising Is Growing
This last month merch.com, selling band t-shirts, said they have seen an increase in web users. This is great news as the economy is dropping really fast in the united states. When asked as to why the sales were up, the answer was simply put. “Basically no one has money to spend on gas, so then they want a shirt, they will buy it online”
Why would people spend money on shirts if they can’t even afford gas?
That is one of the interesting things about fans to a band, they will do anything to get the gear and merch that they want to wear to the concerts.
Why would fans afford concerts, if they can’t even afford gas to put in there car?
Again fans will go to any length to get into that concert for that band they love. That is one reason our sales are doing so well! See for many, going to a concert is the best way to relax after a horrible day at work or when you realize that this horrible economy is going to real to mess up your life goals.
All this has come together to create an environment were ecommerce is booming almost as fast as it was before the dotCOMbust in 99. I hope to see this trend grow as we all want to see more money flying around online.
