Sampler sale suggestion

[Redneck500]

I was thinking what a great idea it would be to bring back that 50% off sale on samples again. With all the new and interesting flavors there are, we could all try some of the flavors. I would definitely like to try about 20 or so of the new flavors myself, and im sure everyone would agree! FSUSA is my favirote juice, and I can't get enough of it

problem with those sales is the massive amount of labor required to bring it all together. samplers are a break even deal for us so we tend to shy away from those. not saying we will never do it again but 50% off would be giving them away at a loss.

Ya after I wrote this post I kinda thought about it, and now that you also mentioned it, I think its not such a good idea too because by the time you pay for the people to do it all in labor and everything, the margin is just not there I dont mind taking my chances on a 120 of juice though LOL I have yet to be disapointed. I dont want you to loose any money, because if you did that, who would mix the good juice?

A 90% Off Sale for people over age 68 would be especially nice.

You could call it a "We Care About Our Senior Citizens Sale."

Probably would get national headlines.

Oh, and I would qualify for it!

Just for that TT they are going to make it for people over 70....

I agree, but it might make people (like me) try your juice. Sometimes you have to spend money to make money. I have to write a lot of checks for my company to pay for advertising, but in the long run the money comes back home with friends!
just say'in!

He didn't say that he never does them (because he does). But even you should realize that too frequent sales that lose money would be a disaster for a company.

Sometimes you need to give a little to make a lot. That being said, I don't get samples anymore. I buy the 30ML bottles to try flavors. This way, I get the "out of the bottle" experience. I can also steep them and see how the flavor changes. I have enough to mix with other flavors, since some juices taste best mixed. Plus, if I like it, I have enough to really enjoy it while I wait for the next order to arrive. Heck, I have 12 30ML bottles sitting on my desk right now. These are just the ones that aren't steeping or at work.

omgoodness, you're doing me in....hmmmm where is my list.....you put it down for one second..?

I agree with LD. 30ml bottles are the way to go ... for all the reasons he stated.

The smallest I would ever get is a 10ml bottle and that would just be to get a general idea of what the juice is.

Id like to get the 30ml but my mind thinks like an economist, and with the price of juice at 15 dollars per 30ml and 40bucks per 120 thats like at 50% extra cost for juice I wouldn't say I'm cheap but on a security guard salery you really gotta watch your outgo!

I started with ordering the samples too. I found that I saved more with the bigger bottles. The samplers are $2.25. That makes them $22.50 per 30ML. Even with the discounts that get posted (let's use 25% as a guide), a 30ML bottle is only around $11.25. It isn't that bad a deal and a pretty good savings. Also, David usually, but not always, tosses in a free sample with every order. You get more for your money that way. Plus, any juices that you don't like can get traded in the forum for quite a number of samples. I found that I had a ton of samples kicking around that I really didn't like and are harder to get rid of. The ones I did like were gone way too fast. Yes, I am an "economist" too but, I would call myself cheap.
