Heh, I have multiple FLGS owners in my area who couldn't figure out how to use the kits effectively, and decided they were not worth it. I didn't, and still don't get it . . . it's not rocket science.It didn't happen to me, but a local retailer would keep buying the kits and them complain they didn't work for them without even trying to stock some of the stuff from the kit, like core 5e or Pathfinder books.
To clarify, I didn't imply mean they should stock everything but try something. For a most stores, some of the demos should be related to no-brainers for their local meta.
ADVERTISE locally that Free RPG Day is being celebrated at your store! Make it an event beyond just slapping the freebies down on a table. Put some effort into it! By Gygax's Beard!!!
