Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Nikki’s Magic Wand Friends! I hope everyone is having a great weekend. St. Patrick’s Day has turned out to be quite a green holiday for NMW. On the last post, I told you that we were roaring into March like a lion and we planned to keep roaring. Well, since that post, we have stuck our toes into new waters. You may know that we are selling on www.nikkismagicwand.com, Amazon.com and now at four retail locations. BUT, we just added yet another distribution channel (listen to me sounding all business-y). We are now in partnership with a couple who has purchased a bulk amount of wands under a wholesale agreement, for the purpose of selling on their own. It’s a Cha-Ching scenario for all involved. How many investment opportunities offer you a chance to double your money? We are VERY excited to have entered into this partnership and all parties involved are committed to keep it going for a long time. We have all read that we need to have multiple streams of income, well this is the same thing. We are looking for ways to expand our brand, our reach and get the word out far and wide so EVERYONE can join the make-up saving revolution!
Also, we are still looking for a subject matter expert on Search Engine Optimization, Social Media and all things related to making the internet work its hardest for us. I’ve told ya’ll before that there are a MILLION things to learn. It can simultaneously feel exciting and confusing. But as each day passes, we plug away, learn something new and come out just a bit wiser. One BIG thing I have learned is that there are many, many ways to get a Wand in a consumer’s hand. I happened to be at a girls’ get together yesterday and the host asked me to bring some Wands and I am happy to say that they sold like hotcakes. Might have to add home parties to the list of sales options. NMW is easy to hawk because it’s not only nice to look at (thanks Julie and Vince), but it also serves a great purpose so it makes a non-saleswoman like me talk it up with ease and in turn, would be an easy sale for others.
Oh, there’s more to tell you. NMW will be featured in Ambition Box’s first shipment in April (check out their Facebook page). For a small membership fee, you can get a box of goodies delivered to you each month. Imagine a treasure chest of beauty booty on your doorstep each month. Cool, right? Hurry up and join and you too can get a Nikki’s Magic Wand, among other treats. Let’s support these women as they grow their business.
The best friend/business partner is being considered for a reality show so you may get to see her soon and I have submitted my picture for People magazine’s Real Beauty campaign. If you are so inclined, please vote for me (Nicole, 41 from Pittsburgh)! 🙂
Well, I really just wanted to tell you what’s been happening. I promise to flashback next time.
As always, thanks for reading.
