I think that’s a good question. I think when we first started talking about accessories at Game Stop and there are two competing headset manufacturers. One is called: Astro and one is called Turtle Beach. You go to a store and ask them, what’s your best-selling headset? Turtle Beach - they don’t have any returns, they’re amazing. You look at their numbers and Turtle Beach was like 80 percent of our headset sales. Then you go to another store and: Astro was amazing. Never have any defects, everybody loves Astro. Their Astro sales would be 80 percent. It’s really the store managers that have to be convinced because you can’t order them, I want you to sell Astro. You really have to convince them that this is the path we’re going down, and this is why it’s good for you. It just takes time. Being autocratic in something like that just doesn’t work right.
Yes. Once in a while, we’ll incentivize a store manager on a specific initiative. You get a spiff on X or spiff on Y. Yes, absolutely, I think that’s important.
