I will also mention that when athletes appear through another company that is in the business, like Steiner, the athlete usually never has any say in what the company charges the consumer for an auto or a personal appearance (meet and greet).
Usually the company will pay (negotiate) a flat fee and then the company will charge what they wish for the auto or meet and greet. Sometimes (very rarely but it happens) the athlete doesn't even know what the company is charging for an in person auto or meet/greet.
