Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Nutrition companies are able to have multiple gym partnerships which makes it even more of an issue that needs to be looked at and I can't see it being too difficult to do on the coding side of things but Clothing companies should be able to have multiple fight orgs as partners and also make gyms another option to partner with like being able to partner up with 2 gyms and 2 Orgs would be the limit but at the very least being able to partner up with 2 Orgs would be a huge improvement...honestly unlimited amount of partners for clothing companies would be the best and most realistic but 2 or 3 would be just fine ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeF Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 No, just no. Companies making a mil per week just by being partnered with 2 PPV orgs would be way too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 I don't think it's a mil per week. More around 250k an event for the clothing company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 No, just no. Companies making a mil per week just by being partnered with 2 PPV orgs would be way too much. That is a valid argument but that could be worked out to where the clothing company was only getting a cut from the actual attending patrons not tv profits just like it is in real world...a clothing company hired to sell product at an event does not receive money from ticket sales, food sales or anything other than merchandise sales so really it would not have any affect on sales for the merch company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Also a thing that I wish was used for the partnership between clothing and org is a set amount of product a merch owner would send to each org event so it would make it a much more life like task of owning a clothing company that sells at events...my cousin and I both have worked in the merch dept warehouse as full time employees and as supervisors for the warehouse located in the building for the Pittsburgh Penguins and we worked all the events that came into the building he still does I no longer do but when a concert came in it had merch that the rep of that concert tour would give us and we would take it to our warehouse and do a count and then match numbers with the rep and this was done before and after event but we would at times run out of an item on a stand selling merch and then have to go to the merch truck and get that item if they had it but sometimes they would not have any more so my point being is having a preset amount of certain items to be sold at Orgs events would make clothing owner have to look at the Orgs expected attendance and all those key elements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 You do realize Disagree. You think Reebok will be partnered with another MMA organisation while they are with the UFC? Reebok is the sponsored brand for multiple sports teams and in some sports like the NHL which I worked directly with the Pittsburgh/Ohio reebok rep in the ordering of product for us to carry and sell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Disagree. You think Reebok will be partnered with another MMA organisation while they are with the UFC? Biggest thing wrong with what your saying is that your comparing reebok making specific items with the UFC brand but are most of the clothing companies on here doing this with the Orgs they are partnered up with? I have items for my org partner but it's not as if those are the only items being sold at the events of my partner lol It is set up right now as the org is allowing the clothing company to sell items at the events they hold for a cut not as your saying which is what reebok and ufc have done and that's for reebok being able to sell items with the ufc logo and that's also for the ufc brand to grow its customer base when it comes to merch since reebok merch is sold in every major sporting distribution store/site and catalog globally so that partnership and scenerio does not compare to the partnerships in game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 You need to look at the Orgs in game as pro sport teams are in real life and not entirely different leagues which I understand they are but for in game it needs to be looked at as if MMA tycoon is the league like the NHL is for pro hockey and within that is different pro teams/Orgs Soccer has various leagues that have multiple clubs within those yet all of those clubs from all over the world no matter the league have the same few companies making the merchandise for all of them so again your not looking at it in the right perspective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 If it was the brand licensing that was being factored in like your referring to then you would be totally correct but it's not like that on here and also I can guarentee you that reebok would sign a deal to Create, Distribute, and Sell another MMA organization if it was available and worth it to do so but no other company has the recognition like the UFC so it's not the same lol I can go on about how your reasoning is not valid Disagree.

Yes but with my idea the merch owner would have to have the ability to supply that amount of product and also say You and I were partnered your Orgs event is at a 5,000 seat venue and hasn't had the highest promotion level and your org is only a few months old Me being the merch side would send enough 4000 items expecting not all ppl would buy something and then after the event say It ends up that only 3258 items were bought. Just like it is now for clothing company your available order quantity would grow in time and would be figured based on hype of both org and company but yes bigger companies partnered up with big Orgs would make more but that's just common sense in business expecially sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 if having to create and stock a separate line of items to have sold at partnered Orgs events was the best way to keep it from being as easy to just partner up a org and clothing company and immediately make loads of $ then so be it but the key thing is just because the org is established and able to sell huge amounts of product at events would not mean the partnered clothing company could meet the wanted amount of product to be sold at event and as it is now would need to be careful with how it ordered and everything just incase it had an event at end of month and had little to no stock to sell at the event and this would hurt both the clothing company and Orgs upcoming event sales and would have to regain the lost demand of items being sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 At the end of the day it would make long term partnerships more effective and would increase both the org and clothing companies hype since they would need to work more effectively together in the planning of events and quantity of certain items which would be sold only at events of the org and those items could just be blank shirts and just standard options of items available once you signed a partnership and this would also have its own available monthly allowed ordering amount and so on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pababear Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 As it is now communication between merch partners is rarely and if at all needed since your not really at risk of losing money or hype so if it was to stay the same as it is now but only being allowed to have multiple partners was the thing to change your right it would be unfair in a $ making sense but if you added the need to plan merch items ordering to meet the needs of the Orgs upcoming events as well as staying in the realms of the companies abilities based on the companies hype and sales history it would be controlled and take time to get to where your thinking ovoxo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
