1. Continue their grading special past Jan 31st to gain more customers
2. Promote their grading special on ebay for those searching for cards, in the weekly SCD, and at major card shows
3. Create registry by team & player.
4. Create grading incentive program for those looking to complete major brand graded sets based upon % completed. The incentives could be grading coupons, recognition on web site or recognition in their advertisements.
5. Create sub-grades on the back of their holder that compliments the hologram. This is much much needed for SGC to garner further advantage from PSA & GAI, while allowing them to compete from a holder perspective with Beckett
6. Probably need to partner up exclusively with some large collectors/dealers to influx the secondary market with their product.
7. Continue their excellent customer service
8. Flexible shipping alternatives to help consumer reduce cost
9. Grading specials for teams that win WS, SB, or championship that must be noted on your submission form (promo).
10. Continue their grading special past Jan 31st

Perhaps SGC should marry the set registry specials to the set you have registered. I have a '77 set registered, maybe the $5/30 day thing would be my special for building my set.. Of course, my other submissions would still qualify for SGC's other specials -- Newsletter 10% off etc....

I think Seano and the whole SGC team needs to circle the '03 Atlantic City National on their day planners. New Jersey is SGC's home turf. Many of their best customers are in the greater area, certainly within driving distance. SGC needs to be the total package -- marketing, attention getting, reaching out to their base customers. The world is coming to their house, the world should know it is their HOUSE. Plenty of time to plan for it, plenty of time to think on it....

I hope they do continue the grading special or I am afraid my grading dollars will be spent elsewhere. I can buy most of what I collect for about the charge for grading.

I hope the SGC brain trust is focusing on the need to maximize the enormous opportunity presented by the Atlantic City National. It being their backyard, they will not have the staging costs of a mid-west or west National. The saved cost should be a head start for their maketing budget.

srs1a,
This board mainly focuses on discussing pre-war baseball cards. Topics
include e-cards, t-cards, grading companies, pre-war auctions, old judges,
ebay, old time players, and a variety of other old baseball topics. It makes
for some good reading. I don't really contribute much since my knowledge
of most topics discussed is limited. I've been following that board
for some time.
They also post a thread to buy, sell, and trade cards. And topics do
get repeated every so often.
