The big lesson I learned on autographs is don't count on sales to make your money, come with inventory to get signed and sell yourself later, that's the only way autograph guests are a money maker. We had a couple hundred photos to sell at the show that we got signed but it wasn't nearly enough to get to even. We simply didn't realize that the money is made on the after market, not at the show.

Now there's some insight!
