Simple trades
9 years ago
In my ethnic neighborhood in Flushing, New York, U.S.A., there are simple stalls where marked-down merchandise - with good labels - can be had. Sort of inside flea market.
So, I went and brought some too tight clothes (coat and sweater) with good labels and he took them on consignment, next Saturday come back and when it is sold, then cash in my hand.
So, the wife looked at some half-full bottles of perfumes that I threw into the deal and said, Oh, I am interested in the perfumes and I sell them to my sister in ..... ( foreign country nearby, the name I am withholding). So, I said, I will look for more perfumes to bring in.
First I want to see the cash for the clothes on consignment, then we can talk more.
Here is my question:
What can I do to make these good label perfumes more attractive for her? She will not know Andy Tauer perfumes nor Maison Kurkdjian. Such good stuff thrown in front of the "indigenes". Should I provide a print-out of the background of the good perfumes I am offering?
I could talk my mouth to fringes, the message will not come across. And as for sniffing, she will sniff and only perceive the top notes.
Okay, that is good for my sister, will she think - but by what measurements, what standards?
The way I act, I will never make it in sales.
Any suggestions to "beef up the merchandise" and make it easy to sell?
