Power Play

So using some tips we learned last week, we managed to move almost 2 pallets this week. For those of you keeping score at home, that is a lot. We have about 10 new displays set up and in the process also grabbed some new stores. Our total after we drop some product off on Monday looks to be creeping up to 80!

Samplings have become our new secret weapon. This week we had 3 different samplings at 3 different locations on 3 different days (yea its alliteration but with numbers). These really help us out because it gives us a chance to educate people about what the product is and who we are. With so many choices out there it is getting ever more difficult to stand out from the crowd. The response usually is pretty positive and it makes the store owners happy because it is publicity for them and helps move product which is good for both parties. We are planning to use this weekly.
On other news, FANSHOES (www.myfanshoes.com) and Vital Energy are continuing their partnership and are starting our own weekly vlog. We want it to be another avenue for people to get to know us as well as interact with us more personally. The general topics covered are going to be about starting up a local business and what is involved with that along the way. We are also going to talk about what is going on and upcoming with us and any new projects we may want to discuss. We are also hoping to eventually get guest appearances by local business people.
Crash course in video here we come.

Other than that, we are speaking at a DECA event on Tuesday, Sutherland HS on the 20th and co-sponsoring the FIFA fashion show with FANSHOES on the 20th. Join the facebook page and feel free to ask us any questions you might have.

Don't forget to ask stores for it by name, Vital Energy.
Til then, try VE Acai Blueberry with a slice of lime/lemon and Tangerine with a slice of Orange.
