I have an interest in the marketing end of pens as to what people are selling and how they are marketing them. We have been dabbling for about a year but seem to have found a groove that keeps us busy enough.
Would be interested to hear what kits you have moved in the last thirty days and how. Shows? Word of mouth? Retail stores? Friends? Etc.
We do not do shows or events just niche marketing on a small basis as my 15 yr old son does most of the turning and I help with the marketing. We both have limited time as it is only a hobby. We find what we think is wood of interest to a group and then tell them our story about it.
In the last 30 days we have moved about 24 cigar pens and 3 Wall Streets. We like the nicer platings. The cigars were a larger order then a follow up order of more. Still have to turn five of the cigars but the order is there. We are going to back off for a bit because of holiday, family, and school. But we have a potential thirty pen triton or Wall Street order that is nibbling at the bait.
