I was at the Kiwanis volunteer agency today giving a speech for school. Everyone thought I was great........and I wore my torches and heelys shirt 
I found a way to incorporate heelys into the speech......so I got a lot of comments afterwards about it. Including one guy who said he was starting a small business soon. It's called Journeys (has nothing to do with the shoe store), and he's going to carry all kinds of fun-related stuff. Including heelys. So after he heard my speech........HE OFFERED ME A PART-TIME JOB THERE TO DO HEELYS DEMOS |

it feels great to spread the word and make connections to other companies
do you think HSL would want to sell him a small stock of heelys/wheels? |

That's really cool. 
He just needs to contact Heelys, Inc. and find out what the minimum order is. He might be able to manage it. Then again, he might be better off picking up clearance Heelys from other locations and selling them at a slight markup. |

| None. But I mean other styles. You said he couldn't place a big order. It's better he have something to prove he (and you) can sell them. Will he have a vert ramp for you to ride? No? Then you can flatland, for which fats will do. When kids come back and want to do vert, then he'll have a good indication of the viability of his business as a place to get Heelys for agressive skating. |
