Rejecting calendars

We have let our magazine distributors know that we do not want to receive calendars from them this year as we have negotiated more lucrative arrangements direct with calendar publishers and importers. It does not make sense to carry calendars which deliver 25% to 33% GP when we can carry similar or better product which delivers 60% to 75% GP. Also, given that the Government owned Australia Post post office opposite my newsagency will have some product similar to what the magazine distributors send, I would prefer to offer a genuine point of difference.
