"We've been trying to come up with new and clever ways to earn money towards our costume and studio space rental fund. We've toyed with all sorts of ideas but we're not sure what will catch people's attention. Does anyone have an suggestions for us?"OK, I'll start the ball rolling with 10 suggestions:
1. Cancan classes for fun and fitness.2. Cancan dolls (with full costumes) for kiddies ("Mommy, I want one of them!).3. Promotional suspender stockings (Saucy Tarts Hosiery).4. Weekend workshops for people interested in learning the dance.5. Video disks of the show (for sale at the end of each gig).6. Saucy Tarts playing cards7. Saucy Tarts tarot cards.8. Saucy Tarts computer game with a minor download fee.9. Saucy Tarts board game.10. Saucy Tarts exercise/aerobics disk.Maybe: Belle Epoch-flavoured lingerie shows (each performance includes a cancan; local lingerie boutiques might support such an idea with an eye to free publicity).You might also consider the benefits of free givaways, such as an inexpensive red garter with the words "Saucy Tarts" printed on it. Everyone loves a free gift, no matter how cheaply produced it is.
