10 Hot Products for 2014

Diez Productos Populares Para 2014

By Gloria Mellinger

FLEA MARKET vendors know the value of offering innovative products, especially products that shoppers cannot find in their local big box stores. Sellers also know the benefits of demonstrations that draw customers to their booths from near and far. From the chirping and swooping E-Bird to the revolutionary cleaning Zap Cloth®, the following are ten hot products for 2014 that are both exciting and demonstrable.

Lively R/C E-Bird E-Birds remote control toys, manufactured by CBJ Global LLC, are colorful gliders that are easy to operate. These entertaining devices look and act like real birds, flapping their wings, and climbing, swooping and diving through the air, while

Por Gloria Mellinger

LOS VENDEDORES de mercados de pulgas conocen el valor de ofrecer productos innovadores, en especial productos que los compradores no pueden encontrar en los centros comerciales locales. Los vendedores también conocen los beneficios de las demostraciones que atraen a clientes a sus puestos desde todas partes. Desde el E-Bird que pía y vuela hasta el revolucionario limpiador Zap Cloth®, los siguientes son diez productos populares para 2014 que producen interés y pueden demostrarse en público.

making a simulated bird sound. E-Bird is available in four designs: Blue Pigeon, Green Parrot, Pink Butterfly and Orange Phoenix. “When vendors demonstrate the E-Bird, people come from all over the market to find out what it is,” says BJ Lehrfeld, company partner. Wholesale price starts at $15, and volume discounts are available.

Los juguetes E-Birds con control remoto, fabricados por CBJ Global LLC, son coloridos planeadores fáciles de operar. Estos entretenidos dispositivos tienen el aspecto de las aves y actúan como tales, ya que aletean sus alas y vuelan por el aire al tiempo que simulan sus sonidos. E-Bird está disponible en cuatro diseños: Paloma Azul, Loro Verde, Mariposa Rosa y Fénix Naranja. “Cuando los vendedores demuestran el E-Bird, la gente viene desde todo el mercado para ver de qué se trata”, dice BJ Lehrfeld, socio de la compañía. El precio al por mayor comienza en US$15 y se hacen descuentos por volumen. El precio al por menor es de US$30 a US$50. La caja contiene 24 piezas y no hay un pedido mínimo.

Both the 3D single and 3D triple pictures come in a standard black frame, and measure 19 by 15 inches. “These pictures are very popular, and when people see them, they say, ‘Wow. That’s cool’,” Berens adds. “We have something that appeals to everyone, and we are expanding our selection of images all the time.” To see the variety, vendors can visit DRL Wholesale Supply online. To make it easy for buyers to determine if the picture offers a single or triple image, three pictures are displayed together for 3D triple pictures, and a single image is shown for 3D single pictures.

Animal, Native American, fantasy and scenery images “We offer two types of framed images,” explains Carolyn Berens, customer service representative. “One is a three dimensional single image. When you look at it from different angles, depending on the picture, it looks like the eyes follow you or the head turns.” DRL Wholesale Supply has around 100 different single images available. Examples include animals, such as horses, wolves, eagles, panthers, dolphins and other ocean life, Native American, fantasy and scenery images. Wholesale is $5 and retail is around $15. The company also offers 3D triple framed pictures, where the image itself completely changes depending on the viewing angle.

Instant Eye Shadow For Professional Results in Seconds EYE MAJIC Instant Eye Shadow™, from Majic Beauty, is the world’s first and only complete, state-of-the-art eye shadow application that offers professional makeup artist results in a matter of seconds. “With one swipe over the eye with our patented applicator, Eye Majic achieves a look that would take a professional makeup artist 20 to 30 minutes to create and would cost a lot of money,” states John Allan, CEO. Eye Majic can be used anywhere, takes less than 10 seconds to apply, and allows users to keep up with the latest colors, fashions, trends and designs. “Each applicator has three colors, making it easy to get the smoky eye and other popular looks that take a lot of pots and brushes, and can get messy and expensive,” he adds.

Matte and pearl shades go from day to night Eye Majic is available in ten matte shades for everyday wear and ten pearl shades for nighttime shimmer. “You can literally go from day to night just by applying the pearl over the matte,” Allan notes. Silver Lining and Cappuccino are two of the most popular pearl 46

shades, and a hot selling matte finish is Brown Sky. Majic Beauty is continually expanding its line of color trios to meet consumer interest. Eye Majic Instant Eye Shadow works on any kind of eyelid and shape, and has been sold internationally for around five years. It is now available in the U.S., and is being advertised nationally on television, in magazines and via the Internet, giving sellers great brand awareness at no additional cost. “The biggest success for this product in any sales arena is demonstration,” Allan continues. “Eye shadow is something that many women either don’t know how, or don’t have time, to put on. Once people try Eye Majic or have someone demonstrate it, they have to have it, and sales are off the charts. We recently did the LA Ultimate Women’s Expo and sales were incredible.” With the great interest being generated, the company expects the product to sell extremely well at flea markets and swap meets.

one Foxy Lady leopard application, “which is kind of a funky, cool look that the younger demographic likes to try,” Allan notes. “It is a fun way for consumers to try several shades.” The kit also includes one Eye Majic Eyeliner, one practice application and a demonstration DVD. The Select 16 Kit generally wholesales for $10 and retails for $19.95. At present, Majic Beauty is making the kit available to flea market and swap meet vendors at the special price of 15 kits for $135 or 25 kits for $200. Each order includes a demonstration video. The husband and wife team of Rocky and Grace Mammone, the latter of which is a fashion savvy cosmetician, founded Majic Beauty in 1996. Other innovative products available from the company include Eyeliner Majic, Lash Majic mascara, Lip Majic lip gloss and Lipliner Majic lip liner.

Iron Wall Décor Stands Out From the Crowd SELF-EXPRESSION IS king among today’s consumers, and what better way than with original iron wall art that showcases talents and interests. World Unique Imports Inc. has introduced a line of 100 percent steel decorative silhouettes that offers something for everyone. “We started with athletes in action and other sports items for baseball, basketball, football, golf, tennis and soccer,” says Jojo Orlanes, owner. “Then we expanded with other athletes in action like a ballet dancer, figure skater, dancer/ gymnast, fisherman and cheerleader.” World Unique Imports has since added musical instruments, including a guitar, saxophone, trumpet, musical notes and drum set, and vehicles. This year, the company introduced a line of Western iron wall art that includes a cowboy hat, horse and cowboy boots. “We also cover pets, and we will be expanding this line in the near future,” Orlanes shares. In addition, World Unique Imports will manufacture custom designs, with a minimum quantity order, to be sold exclusively by a seller.

indoors, in bedrooms, music rooms and “man caves,” or sprayed with a sealant to prevent rust for outdoor display. Made of steel that is one half

inch wide and a quarter inch thick, the silhouettes are black with a semi gloss finish so people can further personalize them. “We intentionally leave them black so people can paint them with their favorite team color, and that makes them even more unique,” Orlanes states. In addition to having numerous popular themes available and the option to create custom wall art, a big selling point is the objects’ 3D effect. “Once people hang it on a wall, the object casts a shadow

from window light or a lamp, creating a three dimensional effect.” As a sales tool, vendors can display pictures to demonstrate the unique lighting effect. “I started this as a hobby, and I got so much interest from friends and family that I turned it into a business,” Orlanes recalls. “I work with an artist to create the designs I envision, and we have something for everyone. We are the only company in the U.S. and Canada that sells this product.” World Unique Imports’ minimum order is generally $300, and vendors can mix and match products. Wholesale for most items ranges from $7 to $18.95. Vendors are invited to order by phone, email or fax. ■

Popular gifts for bedrooms, music rooms & man caves “Our iron wall images sell extremely well at flea markets. Because of their size and design, they attract a lot of attention,” Orlanes points out. “They are all around great gift items,” he adds. “Parents and grandparents love to buy them for their kids and grandkids who play sports or musical instruments.” World Unique Imports’ iron silhouettes are often placed

is colored play sand. “We are also a packaging plant, so we can package sand from one gram up to 25 pounds or more,” states Bert Sabourin, GM.

boxes and for sand therapy trays,” Sabourin notes. “The colored sand can be used for sand layering, peel and stick boards, and in flower layering. People even use the sand in the hems of baptism dresses so that when they go in the water, the dresses stay down. It is also often used in wedding ceremonies, with the mixing of two colors representing two blended families.” Sandtastik Products colors its sand in its facility, and offers a huge assortment of vibrant, shimmering hues, including 33 colors of classic sand and 40 shades of floral sand.

Pre-packed assortment generates big profits Presently, the company is promoting its eightounce and one-pound bags of colored sand to flea marketers. A pre-packed assortment of 40 eight-ounce, peggable bags of sand wholesales for $8.95, plus shipping. It contains ten colors: black, blue, brown, emerald green, light blue, pink, purple, red, white and yellow. The pre-packed selection of 80 eight-ounce bags wholesales for $17.90. Retail is $1 per bag, offering vendors a substantial profit margin of nearly five times wholesale price. Sabourin suggests that vendors put a few colors on a table, along with toys and vases shoppers can play with, to attract attention and stimulate sales. The company supplies product brochures. Sandtastik Products also sells peel and stick boards, and easy to use, medical grade plaster cloth for mask making. Additionally, it has a large selection of tumbled pieces of colorful crystal glass from Germany, which can be used to accessorize flower arrangements, candles, table decorations and more. “We do not have a minimum order,” Sabourin concludes. “We are pro small business.” ■

JTC: Consistent Value in Closeouts for Decades JACOBS TRADING Company (JTC), founded by Irwin Jacobs and now owned by Liquidity Services Inc., is a direct source for many retailers’ and manufacturers’ customer returns, overstocks, shelfpulls and damaged goods in every product category. “Closeout merchandise gives retailers an opportunity to buy low and sell below regular retail, while still earning substantial profits,” states Howard Grodnick, president. Doing business for nearly 50 years, the company sells by the truckload to a variety of outlets including flea market vendors, discount and surplus stores, auctioneers, and wholesalers and retailers. Truckload prices vary depending on the manufacturer or retailer of the goods.

Product quality “Customer returns are sold as is, so there can be open box goods in really good condition or there can be damaged goods. It is a mixed bag,” Grodnick explains. “Retailers might get a few of the same items, for example, but the condition might be different for each one. Some sellers offer the items for the same price across the board, while others get a premium for the perfectly good items and price the items in rougher condition lower.” Client satisfaction, consistent value and stellar service are paramount to JTC, and the firm assists customers new to liquidations to be sure they understand the types of merchandise they are buying. “Customer service is important to us, and we treat our customers the way we would want to be treated,” Grodnick notes. “They know they can trust that if they buy something from Jacobs Trading Company and if something isn’t right, we will make good on it. There are a lot of companies in this business that have been around a short time, and we are probably the oldest liquidation company in the U.S. You are not going to survive in any business if servicing your customers is not your top priority.” It is an exciting business to be in, Grodnick assures. “Everyone I work with is passionate about the business. It seems like it is a different breed of people who have an instinct and appreciation for deals and value. It is a fun and rewarding way to make a living.”

Company history Jacobs Trading Company is thriving under the leadership of Grodnick and Jacobs, who started the business in the 1960s. Jacobs was eighteen years old when he dove into the closeout continued on page 54

He soon began running liquidation events and turned that into COMB (Close-out Merchandise Buyers) Liquidation, a wellknown liquidation company that evolved into 40 retail stores. In the 1980s, Jacobs went public with COMB and, soon after, started Cable Value Network (CVN), which was acquired by QVC. In 1989, Jacobs bought the wholesale division of COMB and that became JTC, which was acquired by Liquidity Services (LSI) two years ago. LSI sells customer return goods and refurbished goods, with contracts leaning toward electronics such as TVs and computers.

Cómo aumentar las Ventas Festivas con Atención al Cliente y una Sonrisa Por Kirt Manecke

LA ATENCIÓN al cliente es importante para los vendedores de mercados de pulgas porque la primera impresión cuenta... ¡mucho! Cuando un comprador se acerca a su puesto, usted desea que se sienta bienvenido y apreciado. Salúdelo de inmediato y con cortesía. Aquí tiene dos técnicas rápidas y sencillas para la atención al cliente que puede implementar hoy para hacer que sus clientes sonrían y compren durante estas fiestas.

todas las futuras interacciones y transacciones. Puede hacer toda la diferencia al aumentar las ventas y transformar la atención al cliente.

Mire a su cliente a los ojos y hable de manera cálida, animada y amistosa. Esto puede parecer básico, pero se sorprendería de saber en cuántos negocios no saludan a los clientes de manera apropiada. Según Malcolm Gladwell, autor de Blink, las primeras impresiones ocurren de manera instantánea o dentro de los dos segundos. La indiferencia es una de las mayores razones por las que las personas no regresan a un negocio.

the difference between a customer spending their money with you or walking away to spend it with your competition. People buy from people they like and trust so it is important to remember the golden rule: Treat people the way you would like to be treated. Be nice, be polite and do not be afraid to approach a customer to initiate an exchange.

Here’s How: 1. Greet shoppers properly with a genuine smile and a warm “Hello!” 2. Engage them in an initial short and friendly conversation. Find out how they are doing with phrases such as: “It’s nice to see you. How’s your day going?” When appropriate, give a genuine compliment: “I really like your sweater.” 3. Then find out how you can help them: “What exactly brings you in today?” or “How can I help you?” Shoppers who interact more with a vendor spend more money. As you build friendly relationships with your customers, you differentiate yourself and your business from your competition, and you can create a customer for life. ■

1. Salude al comprador de manera adecuada con una sonrisa genuina y un cálido “Hola”. 2. Inicie una conversación corta y amistosa con él. Averigüe cómo está con frases tales como: “Me alegra verlo. ¿Cómo va su día?” Si corresponde, haga un cumplido genuino: “Su suéter me gusta mucho”. 3. Luego, averigüe cómo puede ayudarlo: “¿Qué lo trae por aquí?” o “¿En qué puedo ayudarlo?” Los compradores que interactúan más con el vendedor gastan más dinero. Al construir relaciones amistosas con sus clientes, usted se diferencia y diferencia su negocio de la competencia, pudiendo crear un cliente de por vida. ■ Kirt Manecke es autor del libro ganador de premios Smile: Sell More with Amazing Customer Service – The Essential 60-Minute Crash Course (Sonría: Venda más con una Maravillosa Atención al Cliente - El Curso Intensivo Esencial de 60 Minutos).
