My baskets don"t sell. I had about 5 made up for Christmas and none sold. So, I figured that for Valentines I would discount these baskets 15%. I had them all in Valentines baskets. I made a Colorolgy basket, Synergy "Something Sweet" Basket, and 2 Caribbean Gold baskets with Sex Kitten etc in them. Still, nothing has sold. I have them displayed where customers can see and touch the lotions in them. Is there something else I can do next time?

Baskets never work for me either. Did some for Christmas and only sold one. Basically took it apart and sold lotions in cups. Haven't had problems selling those. Basically got rid of all the lotions that I was trying to sell.

You could try cute bags next time. Sometimes baskets are too bulky, people seem to like bags instead. You can get very nice gift bags pretty much anywhere. There is always the option of having custom ones made for your store too. Its a great idea to make up gifts for your customers to purchase.

I'd try the bag idea worked great at my salon. Put some eye googles in , moisturixer and a bottle of lotion. Oh and throw in a few tanning stickers or no rays.

I wish the salon I went to would do gift bags... I just made one up for my sisters birthday this weekend. I had to put it together by myself. So if they woulda had them, I definatly would have went for that instead.
