How to Increase Your 2013 Holiday Sales HOLIDAY SALES in November and December are expected to increase 3.9 percent to $602.1 billion over 2012, according to the NRF. The forecast is higher than the 10-year average holiday sales growth of 3.3 percent. This optimistic outlook could mean strong fourth quarter returns for flea market vendors, especially if they provide top holiday merchandise as well as superior customer service. Here are four strategies to help you increase holiday sales in 2013.

Stock up on trending gift products Pay attention to gift giving trends as well as to traditional favorites. Current trends influence buying behavior and can be a potent tool for flea market vendors. Personalized products such as stampable rings and pendants, as well as framed letter and sports prints, are the rage and stand to be top holiday sellers. Loom band kits and pre-made bracelets, tech accessories such as animal themed smartphone covers, and bright and neon colored apparel, all promise to be popular items in the upcoming season. To spot other gift, fashion and color trends, check out The New York Times and USA Today, as well as magazines like Time and Newsweek, for reports on broad lifestyle and business trends. Most industries, such as home furnishings and décor, have trade magazines and journals. Elle Décor and House Beautiful, for example,

forecast fads well in advance of their general evidence. In addition, many free websites offer trend updates. A few of the best are: • www.pantone.com, the website for Pantone Colors. Each year in November, Pantone publishes its key color for the following year. This year it is Emerald Green. • www.hfnmag.com covers the home furnishings industry. • www.trendwatching.com offers a free service scanning the globe for emerging consumer trends. Other indicators of new product crazes are museum exhibits, TV programs and blockbuster movies. The Walking with Dinosaurs film is scheduled for a December 20, 2013, U.S. release and children are sure to be clamoring for toys with this theme. Trade shows are another efficient way to monitor the latest products. IGES/SSS is the largest gathering of resort and souvenir gift vendors and buyers in North America. It will be held November 5-9 in Pigeon Forge and Sevierville, TN. The Norton Shows apparel, jewelry and gift markets, continued on page 12

Merchandise your booth Once you have stocked your booth with the hottest holiday items, it is important to display them in eye catching ways and drive traffic into your booth. Fresh decorations can motivate shoppers to consider how an item would look on their holiday table, or what a great gift it would make for someone special. A vanilla or pine fragrance oil and burner presentation attracts customers with its aroma and can sell both items, and a poinsettia presentation can sell both a vase and plant. The holiday music you are playing can also be sold as CDs. You should also consider creating gift baskets and bundling items or letting customers create their own assortment. This can be a strong cross-selling tool and help move a larger volume of merchandise. Muslin bags and decorative boxes continued on page 14

as well as wicker baskets make nice presentations. Another great way to encourage traffic to your booth is to offer snacks such as peppermint sticks and popcorn. Easy and inexpensive, treats drive traffic and create an emotional bond between you and your customers. Finally, do not underestimate the power of a friendly smile and casual approach. Let customers look through and handle your merchandise, when appropriate, and stay just near enough to answer any questions or offer help as needed.

Expand into seasonal fairs and festivals In addition to your regular market, try setting up shop at the one-day fairs and festivals that pop up around the holidays. These annual bazaars often get a great deal of publicity and can be worth the effort involved because of the volume of traffic they receive. An extra day or two at a nearby pop-up market can be a quick and easy profit opportunity. Festivalnet.com and festivals.com are good sources to help you locate these types of events. You can also do online research by entering your preferred location and the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;festival,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;fairâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;holiday bazaarâ&#x20AC;? into a search engine. continued on page 16

Offer shoppers several payment options Now that you have stocked up on the best products, drawn in customers with creative merchandising techniques, and created an inviting ambience with a fragrance or food, it is time to seal the deal. As fewer shoppers are carrying cash, vendors need to consider accepting additional forms of payments. Possible alternatives include debit and credit cards. With the numerous mobile payment apps available at low cost, such as Square, PayAnywhere and PayPal, it has never been easier for vendors to accept credit cards. Importantly, this will lead to an increase in sales as customers who pay with credit cards spend more than those who pay with cash. They will also see an increase in customer loyalty because they are allowing customers to pay how they would like to pay. Holiday shopping experts are forecasting strong holiday sales in November and December. By researching and carrying the latest products, and merchandising those products in a fun and festive way, Q4 could be your best selling season this year. â&#x2013;

with the carvers to get the dinosaurs to produce the right sound,” Meller explains. “Every kid likes dinosaurs, and new movies about Dinosaurs are always being made. These are going to be very popular holiday gifts.” A Lost Art also offers an assortment of authentic musical instruments from Asia, such as the handmade and hand painted turtle animal clapper/accordion. The instrument makes a clapping noise as the pivoting wooden slats clack together as it is waved back and forth. “They add to our collection of jungle animal carvings and make perfect gifts and toys,” Meller notes.

Other musical instruments, such as maracas, rain sticks, didgeridoos and bird flutes, are available. The Lost Art carries additional natural products like jungle vines pencils and teak candleholders. “Everyone wants products that are good for the environment and fairly traded, like ours, and they give vendors great profit margins,” Meller states. General wholesale ranges from $.50 to $6 for 80 percent of products, and retail typically is from $5 to $50. The minimum order is around $250 but Meller will work with customers if they cannot meet the minimum requirement.

The company is expanding the line because it is in such high demand. Patter’s Collectibles’ lanyards are another top seller at flea markets. “Ours have a breakaway feature on the back, and a clip and key ring, and people use them to hold badges and keys,” Patter continues. “The new fathead’s revolution helmet wall decal is another big seller. It is great for a kid’s room or ‘man cave,’ and a great gift for any sports fan,” Patter suggests. The wall decal does not require nails for hanging and is repositionable. “No one else makes anything like this,” he adds. The firm offers the wall decal in continued on page 24

Nontoxic Chemical Free Greenway Formula 7 Kills Bugs GREENWAY FORMULA 7, from American Achievers LLC, is the only all-natural, chemical free and nontoxic product proven to protect people and animals from all kinds of bugs. “The product virtually sells itself. Once people learn that they do not need to spray themselves or their children with toxic DEET to keep disease carrying pests away, they do not have to poison their pets to keep them free of fleas and ticks, and they do not need to be subjected to bed bugs when they travel, they are hooked,” explains Lorna Deutscher, independent representative. Greenway Formula 7 is made in

November 2013

the USA and repels bed bugs, fleas and ticks, most household insects, rancher pests, outdoor bugs and head lice. The pleasant smelling product is available in spray bottles as well as onegallon containers, and each product has the same ingredients in the desired strength and combination required to kill each pest. The main ingredient in all products is clove oil from Indonesia, and the strongest product is the bed bug repellant. “Most of the time people do not even know bed bugs are in their room because they come out and bite after the lights are out. Worse still, bed bugs get into people’s luggage and are often taken home,” Deutscher reports.

“Everyone who travels should have a bottle of this. I will never travel again without this product.”

Proven 100 percent effective by Oklahoma State University Tony Ingel developed Greenway Formula 7 when he discovered that his daughter suffered from breathing problems. Through his research, he learned that dust mites were irritating the issue and he set out to create an all-natural product to eliminate the problem. As a result, Ingel created a product that was effective at killing not only dust mites but also most insects, including the bed bug. Realizing the growing bed bug problem and the public’s dissatisfaction with chemicals, Ingel decided to make his new product available to everyone. In an effort to support his discovery with scientific validation, Ingel asked Oklahoma State continued on page 34

There are two ways vendors can get involved with selling Greenway Formula 7. The first is as a VIP customer, where people purchase the products at wholesale and sell them at retail. Vendors can also become distributors. “It is very cost effective,” Deutscher points out. “For $200, they receive 15 individual bottles which retail for $15 each. They also receive three websites they can use to sell the products, and future purchases are at below wholesale prices. American Achievers also offers profit sharing for distributors that meet certain criteria.” The distributor price of a 3.3-ounce three-pack of the bed bug solution is $20.85, wholesale is $24.60, and retail is $45. There is a video on the website that demonstrates the product and its capabilities, and vendors can stream the video at their booths to attract shoppers. “If you take two and a half minutes and watch it,” Deutscher stresses, “you will never go anywhere without Greenway Formula 7 again.” The firm has other marketing materials such as banners and brochures available for purchase. ■

NFMA Names Jim Gerlach Legislator of the Year The National Flea Market Association (NFMA) held its fourth annual “Day on the Hill” in Washington, DC, October 2-3. During the event, NFMA members had meetings with 15 legislators or their representatives about legislation that involves the flea market industry. The Association also presented its Legislator of the Year award to Congressman James Gerlach (R-PA). “We chose Jim based on his record and history of work on small business issues,” says John Chism, GM of Quakertown Farmers Market and Flea Market in Bucks County, PA. Chism is also a NFMA past president, board member and co-chairman of the association’s legislative committee. “The Congressman has a strong background in promoting and protecting small business along the lines of assisting small businesses with taxes, training programs and funding. He is very active in those areas.” The 2014 NFMA Annual Conference will be held February 12-13, 2014, at the Tropicana Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. For more information on the NFMA, visit www.fleamarkets.org, and to learn more about the conference, click on the More / Conference tab at the top of the page. ■

“We recommend that vendors put out testers and that they continually burn scents to attract shoppers,” Garcia shares. “They can offer a scent of the week or month. I do a lot of trade shows, and the first thing I do is start burning a fragrance. I get a lot of comments from buyers on the aromas. This is something vendors can do, too. Shoppers will enjoy the smell and will buy the oils in the six-pack because the price is so low.” The half ounce bottle wholesales for $.65 and retails for $1.49, and the two ounce bottle sells for $1.99 to $2.49. “You are getting a specialty retail item at the fraction of the price of a Yankee Candle half ounce bottle, which sells for $8,” Garcia comments. continued on page 48

Real Time Pain Relief: Bigger Profits, Not Bigger Space AMERICA HAS a chronic pain epidemic, and flea market vendors have an opportunity to alleviate pain and turn a big profit as well with Real Time Pain Relief. Made in the USA and FDA registered, this over-the counter pain medication has been a top seller for 15 years, and is now available from RTPR LLC for sale at flea markets and swap meets. Real Time Pain Relief is sold in several configurations, including roll on, tube and travel packet. “One of our best values is the five ounce tube, which retails for $25,” says Charles Carlton,

director of vendor development. “It can quickly and easily be added to inventory because it takes up very little tabletop space, yet it draws shoppers’ attention with an easy to apply sample bottle and the promise of relief from their pain.” More than 116 million Americans suffer daily from chronic pain, such as the more than 125 forms of arthritis; consequently virtually everyone who visits a vendor’s booth is in pain or knows someone who is. When you factor in neck, back, knee, continued on page 52

muscle and joint pain, along with sprains, bruises and leg cramps, and the fact that everyday 10,000 baby boomers turn age 65, it makes the market potential limitless.

It comes down to the ingredients â&#x20AC;&#x153;Inflammation is the root cause of most pain,â&#x20AC;? Carlton explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you reduce inflammation, pain also decreases. Our product is not a pain masker, like too many of the pain relief products on the market today. Our product relieves pain, reduces inflammation, and helps revitalize tissue and joints. People who suffer from chronic pain usually have difficulty moving. We have seen evidence that a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quality of motion will dictate his or her quality of life. Real Time Pain Relief helps people move easier as it also helps the body return to its natural pain threshold.â&#x20AC;?

Real Time Pain Relief is made from a combination of 19 ingredients, 14 of which are natural anti-inflammatory agents. A synthetic form of glucosamine is the only ingredient that is sourced unnaturally. This is because many people are allergic to shellfish, a natural source for glucosamine. Real Time Pain Reliefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 16-page, full color catalog clearly explains each ingredient and its purpose along with other helpful product information. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our products occupy a small footprint, so vendors can increase their profits significantly without continued on page 54

expanding their space,” Carlton continues. “They can store a supply under a table, and put a tester bottle on the table for shoppers to try. When a customer rubs Real Time Pain Relief on his or her neck, or any area that is stiff or sore, they usually experience relief within minutes. The next thing they often do is ask how much is it, and they are sold. This sample-to-sell process is explained in a very detailed RTPR reseller manual.”

Free social media ready website “We really want our vendors to be successful,” Carlton adds. “We do more to ensure their success than just give them our product to sell. We provide a lot of free stuff to help them become more profitable.” For starters, each vendor receives a free website that is social media, i.e., Facebook, Google+ and Twitter, ready. The company shows vendors how they can increase sales, both offline and online, using social media. It also gives each vendor an easy-to-use, data base management process to capture repeat sales from customers 24/7 to help them make money year round, regardless of the weather or where their market is located. These features are given to Real Time Pain Relief vendors absolutely free. The minimum opening order is $100, and there is no minimum on reorders. Real Time Pain Relief products generally wholesale for $12.50 and retail for $24.95 each. ■
