Teach Soap

This morning we were on the local morning show. We are doing a craft show on Saturday and the show picked out 4 vendors to showcase. I have no idea if this will impact our sales at all but it sure can't hurt.

I did ask the gal hosting the show why we were picked. She told me we were new, that being unscented was unique, and that our products were cute. She spent a nice amount of time on air talking how we are unscented. The loaves we sliced for our 'demo' turned out particularly pretty.

Things sure are coming together nice for this show.

Congrats!
I'm sure that will bring in more business for you.

Congratulations! That's so exciting. Unscented is pretty unique. I know that there are a lot of people out there that for medical reasons can only use unscented products, so hopefully a lot of them see the show

Well, now that you are a big TV star - are you still gonna hang out with us nobodies?

You mean after my 30 seconds of fame? I'll think about it...

That's great news! I hope your show is A HUGE success! (after smelling all the wonderful FO's out there and not being able to choose, maybe unscented is the way to go)

We did OK. We did just over $400 and our entry fee was $125. (had to end up renting a table for $25 at the last minute because one of ours broke- grr) We did 3% of the door, but sadly that was a couple thousand less than what the show had hoped for. We have a coop that is very interested in wholesaling us now and a major mall here wants us to rent from them ( we are not interested, but it was flattering to be sought out).

Many folks liked the unscented and of course some folks said they were scent people. Over all people were not very deterred by lack of scent if they were ambivalent. This show is only once a year. I would be interesting to see if people could be 'trained' to buy soap at shows if they prefer unscented the way scented folks have. many of my soaps were purchased for gifts. People did actually come find us because of the coverage.

How was the show, and did your segment make it to YouTube so we can all view it? That must have been a thrill!
