KristinesShower Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Since the holidays are coming (quicker than imagined!), I thought it would be nice to do a poll for retail orders. I just got one of the biggest orders I've ever gotten for retail Seems as if this woman was ordering for her whole family (and some friends too!)What is your biggest retail order (all year, not just Xmas) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budgie Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I just had a customer buy $400 worth of stuff. They were buying Christmas gifts for the entire family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josie1091 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I have a friend who buys between $300 and $400 every Christmas. She and her husband own a company. They buy employee and family gifts from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VerticallyEnhanced Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I did a corporate order for an attorney firm...candles for all of their clients with a custom label. I was smiling all the way to the bank! The kicker...last year when I did this, I received a LOT of loyal customers from this same corporate account.

lindsaycb Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I used to have this woman that would continually order $300 in candles...she was nuts...but her checks would also bounce left & right. Pissed me off to no end. She'd always pay, but COME ON... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanglow Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I's rather not post the $$ amount but will 1055 candles give you an idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everito Bandito Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 I's rather not post the $$ amount but will 1055 candles give you an idea? That comes out to about a dollar two ninety eight, right........:smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanglow Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 That comes out to about a dollar two ninety eight, right........:smiley2:Exactly! How'd you guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris77 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I'm still testing my candles....hard to do too much with working 2 jobs....but I never thought I'd get so excited with a $10 tart sale.....lady at the mall I work at orders $10 of tarts every couple of months...I do the happy dance for that....can't imagine selling more than that right now....hope to be ready someday though!

Linnyeg Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I actually just got my largest retail order ever this past week too! She's ordered gifts for 13 people. She loves that it keeps her out of the mall and I love that I'm getting my stuff out to 13 people who may never have heard of me before! Even cooler is that she told me to put some business cards in with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorrie Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I just had a customer buy $400 worth of stuff. They were buying Christmas gifts for the entire family.I just had an order that the lady ordered $560 worth of products! I almost fell over beause I couldn't believe it. But normally I get a few orders that are about $150 but the majority are about $50 to $100 each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
