Shannon, Thank you for getting back to us so quickly! We are looking to sell your product at Compass Information Centre in the spirit of Valentine's Day for an entire week (or longer if you wish). For example, we would sell your product for your given price, but make x amount of dollars in turn (ex. you priced the item at $5.00, we would make $1.00 off of that item). This way you can get your company name and products out to the student population in a prime student location, while we do the sales work for you. For display we would need a table sign and any products that you feel would be best for us to sell. Signs or notes are necessary to be posted if there are any allergen alerts. Attached is an agreement form for you to look at, should you choose to sell your products at Compass for Valentine's week. If you go ahead with this agreement form you should note that you get a free 1 week advertising use on our LCD TV screen and on both of our IPADS to display any electronic poster for your company! Additional reasons why you should use Compass: ·         COMPASS sells your tickets/products through us and we will advertise your event/product on our main bulletin board at the desk, our LCD display screen and Ipads (located in the student centre), our frequently-visited website, and more! ·         COMPASS is located in MUSC which is central and familiar to students, staff and faculty. ·         COMPASS hours of operation are 8am-8:00pm M-F and 11am-3pm Sat which means students are given various different opportunities to come and purchase tickets/products at their convenience (Academic term). Summer and Exam hours vary. ·         COMPASS accepts cash, debit, credit (VISA, M/C & Amex) so you can rest assured that your money is safe! ·         COMPASS does all the work so you don’t have to and at a minimal admin cost from overall ticket sales*  If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us at any time! Best Regards, Kristina Epifano & Sarah Mayes...
