lindanelson Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I have my first w/sale account. For those of you that have w/sale accounts, do you leave a stack of brochures with them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLSoaps Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I guess I'm not really sure why you would? If they're a store front, and have asked for promotional material to put in with your display, I can understand that. But a typical brochure is for sales purposes. And most likely would result in people buying directly from you, rather than through the store. I can't imagine a store owner wanting that.But an informational brochure, I can see that. Basically touting the benefits of your products, but not listing the products like you would in a catalog. If you were able to include her shop contact info on these as well, it could be a wonderful promotional material for her as well. However, the cost of these can definitely add up. If she asks for something like this, I'd offer the first set free, then refills (like packs of 25), charge her for them. The paper, ink, and labor involved, well, you need to be paid for it, I think. I hope this helped, and I hope I interpretted your question correctly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindanelson Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 Thank you Lindsay. It is one of the convience stores that my boss owns. Not the one I manage though. My store isn't a good gift selling store. The one that I am putting stuff in sells a lot of gift items.The only requested scent was Huckleberry, (which I have). Huckleberry items sell like crazy around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bugtussle Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Yes, I do leave a pack of brochures. Customers like seeing them & they contain info about fundraisers. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindanelson Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 OK...I'm taking both answers and kinda combining them. I'm making a tri-fold brochure with scent descriptions, burning instructions, etc. to leave there.My contact info is on every candle anyway, so if people wanted to contact me they could.
