* Summary
** Renos were done in November; stats show period just after renos for year of renos and year prior
** North shop is doing 30% better this year compared to last
** South shop was down this year compared to last, though bike sales made up a significant chunk of revenues last year
* Discussion
** Original thought of not having bike sale this year was because just as many bikes were going out the door; if bike sales had such a big impact on sales last year, did we make a mistake on not having the sale this year. - Didn't have bikes to sell at the time of year for the bike sale because they were already being sold from the shop, and stock was low.
** Chris to tease out bike sales for this year to make a comparison on bike sales
** Could consider doing a call-out to volunteers; need to get experienced bike builders for the bike-building nights to bolster fleet of bikes to sell
** Most bikes that are built by volunteers also take significant staff time, and experienced bike builders are rare.
** What's our strategic plan to increase bike sales?
** Chris to prepare cost return report on hiring a bike builder, when prepping new budget
** Follow-up with Mike S. on pulling up commercial listings, as options for North shop

* Presenting mock-ups for BWN signage
* Connected with employee of Pioneer Press (printing company); suggested to get it printed on a single decal
* Could try to match with black background, or have white background to pop a bit more
* Colours are flexible - Sarah can make more adjustments, as needed
* Complement the awning with an A-frame or sandwich board to draw attention to the shop
* Cost of Pioneer Press is a fraction of initial quote
* Three types of visual promo for BWN are front signage (dibond), side awning, and sandwich boards
** Preference would be for side awning and a sandwich board
