We sell our products retail and wholesale. I have people that buy from us for their gift basket business and to others that have brick and mortor stores. Our minimums are very low - just 4dozen items - mix and match of any items in any fragrance.It's not 4dozen lotions $ 4 dozen sugar scrubs and so on...you get to mix it up!! It is an easy way to get started selling online &/or in a gift basket business. Plus, I always throw in a few freebies for the owner to try or sell - just to use however they wish. It is all handcrafted and unique items. Kara (momsmarketonline) gave us a great review on our Shea Sugar Scrub - people really like the product.

It is just a thought for anyone thinking of starting a business, but not sure what to start with. You can see our site and see what you think. We are also willing to send out samples to folks that are seriously considering ordering...no strings mind you...we just want to send to folks that are seriously business minded.

Cassandra-

I went to your site yesterday. You have some very nice products. I'm definitely(sp?) intrigued! At this point I still need to figure out how to/where to get a resellers / tax ID number. (Kara if you read this-yes still Rolling Eyes

)But I am interested in looking your wholesaling opportunity.
Do you offer dropshipping at all?

Lauren,

I am very interested in dropshipping. I am not sure if you need a program to do that or not...I don't think so, Kara would know since she does it.

I think you would simply copy and paste our pictures and descriptions to your site and create buy or add to cart buttons(include shipping costs). Then, after your customers order retail from your site - you come in and place that order from ours wholesale with customer shipping info and we ship it for you.

Sounds easy enough...I would like to find out from someone who does this if that is the way to do it or not.

I still have the info on the scrapbooking. I will get to it eventually and am interested. I will just need to take the time to get to it and get it done - time Mad

Grrr - there never seems to be enough to get in all that I want to get done.

Lauren,

I forgot to mention that our wholesale info states that there is a 4 dozen minimum ...that would not apply to dropshipping and your order would go through, even it was a one item order.

Just wanted to make that clear since we list the guidelines on the wholesale pages. This is mostly for our customers that buy product to sell in their brick and mortor stores or buy supplies for gift baskets and stuff like that.

Cassandra-

I would definitely be interested in exploring the dropshipping possibilites with you further. My new site will have a spa page, and (I hope you don't mind) while my loyalties are to Kara with her candles - I love the look, and descriptions of your bath and body products.

Once I get my tax ID number, I will let you know. I've read the wholesale pages at your site, I don't know how the programmatic arrangements differ that much for dropshipping. Kara may be able to add some input.

Let me know if you want to take a look at what I have so far with the site. My spa page is not up yet-really only the descriptions on the front page are complete. I can PM you with the URL if you'd like to take a look. Smile

Oh, and no worries about the scrapbooking information-I completely understand not having enough time in the day. I complain about that around here all the time. Wink

Lauren,

I completely understand the loyalty thing...no worries here:)

I am getting ready to come out with a new spa line... our Kathario Collection...Kathario is Greek for Purify and Cleanse. Anyhoo, it will have a Pure Mineral Salt Soak (in those Salt Tubes), A Mineral Mist Body Spray, and Mineral soap. It is all made with pure Dead sea salts. The Mineral Mist is "wonderful" and is especailly for anyone who doesn't have alot of time to "soak" in the tub. You spray the minerals & moisturizing hydrovance mix straight on your body (say after one of those 2 second showers)...your bod soaks in the Mineral and Moisture goodies and you are on your way. The soap will be made with Dead Sea Brine water and Dead Sea Clay. We will offer this line unscented and in a Sea Mist Fragrance.

I sent a personal mail to Kara to ask about the dropshipping...I know she will know how it operates for certain. I would love to offer you our product and services.

Cassandra
