If you are selling kinetic sand

On The Living Room tonight on Network Ten Kinetic Sand is featured as a Christmas gift. If you sell this product make sure you have it out in a good location – to make the most of the publicity.

While the majors are now onto this product, our channel still has an opportunity here. We have sold more than $8,000.00 of this product in a few months.

    I past on this product because I considered it to be aimed at inner city apartment dwellers without real access to the outdoors.Living in the bush I thought customers would take one look and go “I’ve got a backyard full of sand why the hell would I buy it”. Now I’m starting to wonder.Am I wrong?

    Steve, I know of a shop opposite a beach that has done more than $5K in stock, another in a town with 2,000 people that has done $3K in sales and another on the Gold Coast that has done $8K. It’s been selling everywhere but is close to the end of its run – now the majors have it.

    Thanks Mark, I was starting to think I had the wrong end of the stick with this one. I doubt I’ve really got enough time to get it in and people interested before Xmas is over and the price point is fairly high so I’ll file it under missed opportunities.

    We have been selling the sand now for only fours weeks and are about to do our 3rd order. We are a small country town on the ninety mile beach. Can’t get enough of it.
