be a vital part of the success of your store. We are here to help you. The
information
which
you are receiving is only the first step in helping you understand the balloon
business. |
| And, placing your order with us is just the beginning. We want you to call
us when you get your order. You'll have questions.and we'll be there with
the answers. We want to help you become organized and comfortable with balloons.
Organization
is essential to your success! Once you understand how profitable your "balloon
department" is, you'll be glad none of your competitors understand how you
do the business. Allow US to help YOU become successful. |

FOIL BALLOONS |
| If you have had the time or opportunity to walk into a "typical" dollar store,
you will find 20-30 foil balloons displayed on the wall. These balloons are
usually not inflated, and are taped directly to the wall. We believe this is
not a balloon
program at all, and will give you a huge opportunity for SUCCESS. |
| We feel that it is important to DISTINGUISH your store from the rest
of the marketplace. We suggest 100 designs if your store size will allow
it. We suggest
that you
inflate one of each of the designs with FREE air, not helium (using a hand pump) and arrange
them on the walls of your store ABOVE your slatwall or wall racks and the ceiling
BY THEME. Approximately 50 % of the balloons you will receive from us will
have
a birthday theme. |
| The inflated balloons should be attached to the wall by VELCRO and numbered 1 - 100. |
| Normally we pick the balloons from our list of top sellers, by category. You
are free to pick your own designs if you desire. BUT, if you allow us to
pick your selections, we will "guarantee" the success of the various designs.
If you find that a specific selection is not selling after you have put it on
your wall and tried it for several months, you can return the unused ones
to
us, and
pick another design from our huge selection with we will return in kind at
no charge to you. In this way you can feel comfortable that the selections
are picked
to give you the best variety and from the balloons that are THE BEST in that
category. Remember, not all balloons sell at the same rate, but it is IMPORTANT
to have a wide variety of selections and a wide variety of occasions from
which to pick. This guarantees SUCCESS in the balloon department. |
| To organize the foil balloons, you should put the remaining balloons
in file folders by your item # on the wall. Remember to put the UPC number on the inside of the file folder. All of your foil
balloons can easily be stored in a two-drawer file cabinet or a box under the counter. They should be organized
numerically to help you find the customer's choice quickly. |
