    I appreciate your no pressure sales approach. I think it's more effective than the high pressure tactic. Sure with the high pressure tactic you might make a one time sale just so they can get you out the door, but the no pressure sale with a good product can lead into a working relationship where reoccurring sales are possible. Good video 👍

      Absolutely 👍 High pressure salesmen only think short term. Making a quota. No pressure salesmen think about the future and investing in a relationship that pays out year after year. Love your videos and business plan.

    Nice to see the bundler at work again. Elaine from Canada here, yah, that stretch wrap is noisy, almost need ear protection, heh heh. I can see the value in that side of your business,hope you get a few accounts. I think it’s worth one more call or drop-in to that local hardware store in a few weeks, they may need a nice friendly nudge, or they may have simply forgotten your offer. We’ve had a foot of snow this week, so have some shovelling duties to get to… Have a great week Joe, cheers.

    Everybody is busy and I am sure your pop up visit was right in the middle of 10 things going on. There is a huge difference between a follow up about if they have and questions or concerns versus them feeling they need to get a restraining order!
    Maybe donate 10 bundles and sit them beside their current stock so they can see which customers pick first? Don't forget the Mom n Pop bait stores while out and about, Joe!

    • @ohiowoodburner
      @ohiowoodburner  10 месяцев назад +2

      The first thing of a sales call is you never go in when they are busy. Avoid rushes, for restaurants NEVER go in before or during lunch

      Walked into my local convenience store the other day. They had a stack of firewood bundles outside and being curious I asked how much they were. $6.99 plus tax. 5 or 6 pieces in each bundle. Not even enough for a decent campfire. I heat my home with wood that I cut and split myself. I have cords stacked and dried. I'm willing to sacrifice it for a mere $50,000. Tax free.

    I would think that the retailers you are canvassing review their revenues annually to identify where their values in each category are and make a decision on products to increase or decrease in inventory and your offer may get attentiom as a value added new vendor. Revisit them every September. Perhaps also add a service where the retailers can act as a limited partnership where they get a finder's fee from referring their customers to home delivery for pickup truck delivery in bulk?

    • @ohiowoodburner
      @ohiowoodburner  10 месяцев назад +1

      Nice post Dusty. I would think that most places that don't get their bundles from a central warehouse would be in play each year. Not only on their end but possibly bc the supplier quit the business

    In all seriousness though, I truly believe you have set the standard in bundled firewood. By you being so willing to share your knowledge, that you yourself learned the hard way most likely, has improved everybody's bundled firewood game. Not to mention the whole firewood industry itself. SOO many people have followed your lead.
    It's easy to see why you are an industry icon.

    100% agree about starting in bundles. I sold bundles when I first got my Hardy in 2004 and had select cut our forest. Even then I realized that for the amount of work it took a one-legged guy to make a cord, I wasn't going to bother selling that cord for $150.00. Five bucks on the roadside was much more appealing! 👍

    I have a pair of gloves made for motorcyclists that, on the left hand top of the index finger, has a tiny built in rubber squeegee. When riding in the rain with a full face helmet and as the water droplets build up heavily on the face shield, you simply swipe the back of your left hand across your shield and the water comes right off. I think you could easily tape or somehow affix to your right glove a small razor on the outside edge of you pinky finger. Ginsu bundler!

      I can't help you with pricing. It's your call. All I can tell you, about bundles, is find out what the other stores are retailing them for. Use a retail mark up calculator on google and find out cost at 40% markup. That is a good starting point for you. Bulk, just don't sell anything over 1/4 cord and double your current price.

    You should ALWAYS have your labels on your product. You are saving $0.04, advertising for a new customer is with the cost. If they buy multiple bundles, they might call you vs. go to the store for them. Or if they like your product they know where to get more.

      In theory I agree. In reality I don't need any advertising right now.

    Again, a business plan would have predicted this type of bundling wood and it's associated costs and profits and if therè was a market for doing it.

    Little advice Joe, don't use "firewood ninja" in your marketing materials😂. I understand you have stated many times previously not to follow your lead because you don't know where you are going...well, you make it pretty difficult not to be influenced by your success and determination.

      haha. Thanks Bill! I do believe that after every sales call I make that I have just become better at my job

    Firewood is a VOLUME market. Otherwise, it is a hobby.

      I disagree. Firewood is a MARGIN market.

    Remember the guy with the pine 🌲 probably that all he got to make a living joe . Now your trying to cut his throat for your market. 😮 way iiiii iiiii look 👀 at it if there first let it be my thinking 🤔. Just move up 🆙 or down the street with your firewood 🪵. Like 👍 the big company like Walmart cut out the little business owner . Why for CEO make millions at Christmas bonus .

      If you are referring to the Pine bundles I discussed in this video I believe these were from a large operation somewhere else in the United States. I have no sympathy for competing with anyone fairly.

    You are too much!
    Good looking bundles.
    One local store was selling bundles that had fence rails! I think a hillbilly was trying to get some “easy” cash.
    No sale from me!

    Just think 🤔 128 cube foot 🦶 in cord at $7 per/ bundles = $896 .00 the high price in the 709 is $11.99 at a gas ⛽️ station = $1534.72 cord. Someone make the buck turn over firewood 🪵 for sure . 3 yrs ago buy it less them $5 per / bundle. Tell me WHY it triple in price Mr. Trudeau little batsh . 😮

      Because the guy making the bundle is now selling in at that price.. cost of everything has gone insane.. but when you factor in 100k just for the delivery unit plus insurance, fuel and don't forget the MOT fines if not compliant.. selling for any less is just not feasible...

    Not trying to be mean or vulgar... I am just stating that on the average, if its a woman in hot pants, your sales go up highly.... just a law of nature or sales gimmicks that has been used in all of time. Your product is great, people don't think farther than the day present or are so optimistic, ..... there is just no possible reason or rhyme to the stuff going on in their heads. I will not give a excuse of people too poor to afford wood. Their going to eat and stay warm.
