2000-10-14 - 10:07 pm� Everything went fine today. (You might want to read my previous entry for some background here.) I can bring in 14 pieces or so in the next couple of weeks, whenever I can get the stock together. I met the owner of the store, and he was really cool. He was young-- late twenties, early thirties... I don't know, I'm bad at guessing people's ages. He sort of looked like Ben Stiller. He complained of the narrow-mindedness of the citizens of our fair city. I liked him right away. :) Both the owner and the manager of the store (who I talked to on Friday) loved my stuff. The meeting basically went like this: Owner guy: You must be the girl with the cnadle holders. Manager girl told me you'd be coming. Let's see what you've got. Me: Um, sure. (I begin to unwrap my candle holders with shaky hands) Manager girl: Oh cute! I'll probably end up buying this one with the fish myself. Me: Thanks! (Smiling nervously, hands still shaking, sweating too much) Owner guy: These are really funky. So how do you want to do this? Consignment? You bring us in an inventory list, and we'll let you know when something sells. Me: Yeah, I usually sell on a consignment basis. That sounds good. How much stock would you like me to bring in? (not so shaky anymore) Owner guy: How about 4 or 5 different designs or the votives and the a few of the tealights? And bring in two of each motif so I have a backup when one of them sells. Me: Great! I should be able to have that together within a couple of weeks. Manager girl: Make sure to bring in some of those fish ones. Well, there was more to it than that, but not much. I showed them my stuff, they said they'd love to stock it, and I could charge whatever I wanted. I love it when things work out hassle free.
