<p>But as you start to grow, gaining a larger audience, you need to meet the demands of these customers. </p>
<p>At some point, while a lot of people may like one product, they may want something with some changes, such as less sugar, a desire for alternatives, and at this point, you may want to consider the product range expansion. </p>
<p>Usually, this involves more SKUs, which means that you need to be mindful and strategic to keep the proliferation in check. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiotLHWQ4zVOBlUpsK7JISe_OYVKfVWu4yp_B6PTaKMrepTCQC7zttCj0Zutb1QK2m5DxzbC8FSMzIlY2PlZNGbBwNj9YF4NN6ko9wtrVIfAHoDE2_sCUjV8_idIGOLUC_qClNgI7mIx3fi2Mj5ATAVtzixeqqsvjeqT4PbGyFXxZMGDIU8PfLavo6VMg/s1000/5ba13ed10e1401537294033.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="737" data-original-width="1000" height="295" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiotLHWQ4zVOBlUpsK7JISe_OYVKfVWu4yp_B6PTaKMrepTCQC7zttCj0Zutb1QK2m5DxzbC8FSMzIlY2PlZNGbBwNj9YF4NN6ko9wtrVIfAHoDE2_sCUjV8_idIGOLUC_qClNgI7mIx3fi2Mj5ATAVtzixeqqsvjeqT4PbGyFXxZMGDIU8PfLavo6VMg/w400-h295/5ba13ed10e1401537294033.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>
<p>But expanding the product range is really important, and here, we’ll go over why. </p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Product Range, Product Mix, and Product line </span></h2>
<p>The right management of an SKU does involve making sure that you replenish, keep track of, and are able to rationalize the SKUs of a company, expanding the product range and line to create new lines and ranges. </p>
<p>A product range is basically a bunch of variants of a specific category of products, whereas the product mix is considered the entire stock and types of products that some company offers. </p>
<p>For example, product mix includes beauty products, hair care products, skincare, and body care products. </p>
<p>A product range for hair care <a href="https://disurworld.blogspot.com/">products</a> is basically anything involving that, or maybe specific variants of this. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkhM46E8WNcbel-DKauKFUiJFiA5fyZJzNfsBvbbGzF8XxWlDCPsKX0jK6g8MND3xzK2-_VoXZpJ6jRfRfHt44hmQugYACIXSLCj2jFvlWVC6JLk_QVivjUN11hGc3zc550Qs-ZS9kF_zd0jHOvMe2W4OGGep9l3bl5XFa5N3tlGki2BCkWCNER0AB4g/s1000/5ba13ed10e1401537294033.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="737" data-original-width="1000" height="236" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkhM46E8WNcbel-DKauKFUiJFiA5fyZJzNfsBvbbGzF8XxWlDCPsKX0jK6g8MND3xzK2-_VoXZpJ6jRfRfHt44hmQugYACIXSLCj2jFvlWVC6JLk_QVivjUN11hGc3zc550Qs-ZS9kF_zd0jHOvMe2W4OGGep9l3bl5XFa5N3tlGki2BCkWCNER0AB4g/s320/5ba13ed10e1401537294033.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>
<p>A product line and product range are actually used in an interchangeable manner, but that’s actually not correct. </p>
<p>Product line is used for variants of products, whereas a product range is a much broader type of product gamut, and may include products that are complementary. </p>
<p>Hair care product ranges may involve the shampoos that address different concerns. A product line is for variants of one product, such as for specific hair types. </p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Expanding the Product Ranges Mattes </span></h2>
<p>It’s actually really good for those that are growing. It can expand the average order value, as customers buy more and more products at once. </p>
<p>This offers more chances for bundles and kits. When you increase this, you can also recommend products that are complementary to customers in order to create bundles that save costs. </p>
<p>It also impacts the loyalty of products, as it lets you have more options, and they won’t want to go to competitors as much, and they’ll keep coming back to you, building the customer base, and increasing the lifetime value of the person. </p>
<p>There are a few product range cons that come with this. </p>
<p>The first thing, is the costs. It can be expensive to develop this, and you also need to focus on supplying and manufacturing costs, and any costs to market along with selling all of that to fulfill them. </p>
<p>When they’re not executed in the correct way, it can definitely make things costlier than they should be. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkxL5BWDTZYOh7ScFe9_VV1YI_6JdnnezwEBFeARPPnAiaZtmNdXFBfHY7sqIH8z5PFfCjAX_g5XkZmGkfaffbm4nM0b7iWAge-Uv9XBoSRpHjQ-_eYC3s1ASg0q0M8G-yAvb77tB3aaqgUVDDcPIyocCjHcaorpytc0VFIj08NsqjTocSB9ilIdYxAw/s1920/getty_183489780_9706339704500123_72788.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkxL5BWDTZYOh7ScFe9_VV1YI_6JdnnezwEBFeARPPnAiaZtmNdXFBfHY7sqIH8z5PFfCjAX_g5XkZmGkfaffbm4nM0b7iWAge-Uv9XBoSRpHjQ-_eYC3s1ASg0q0M8G-yAvb77tB3aaqgUVDDcPIyocCjHcaorpytc0VFIj08NsqjTocSB9ilIdYxAw/w400-h225/getty_183489780_9706339704500123_72788.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>
<p>The second thing, is you have to realize not every product is going to be a winner. Sometimes, there are those that dind’t sell well, which impacts the investments, and it ca case larger inventory stock to stick around, and lower turnover of inventory, and it can impact the inventory to sales ratios, the days, sales inventory, and the like, and you may see lower revenue per unit, even though some some items are selling quite well.</p>
<p>Making sure that you rationalize the SKU is really important, as it helps to make sure that the items that don’t sell aren’t sticking around, and those that do are there for a bit too</p>Kendall Espinalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767660955622622175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631090439500051693.post-62803812306240956552018-07-27T14:25:00.002-07:002021-07-08T01:56:41.670-07:00Using An Office Moving Checklist To Organize Your Relocation<p class="separator" dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span face="" lang="" style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://www.wikihow.com/Relocate-an-Office" target="_blank">Relocating an office</a> usually begins a new chapter

new office, decide where you want the office to be and the type of building you
need, including the size. Delegate responsibilities to your employees and make
sure everyone understands their role in the process and how to get their tasks
done. Move coordinators within each department can help track progress and make

help with your current office equipment. Hire a good moving company that has
experience moving offices. Get a few estimates and pick the one that includes
the most important needs for your business. Get moving insurance to protect any
technology, valuables, and artwork. Start holding weekly meetings with
employees to go over any loose ends. </span></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span face="" lang="">One month prior to move<br /></span></b></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><span face="" lang="">Time to transfer your utilities, make an announcement

computers and desk items in. Archive old files, get new stationary and business
cards on order. Figure out how you need to secure the files and data that will

So on this day, a large part was supposed to be on our shipping truck. This was where the whole day began.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br /></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="800" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9XFj18GF9P_5DJ9GEsnO_3kaUL1LLIATKu1KfPjivwmOglWkMqxE6Wc1cAH1l82kxUCPKuk4nvXVj7HlxVvXo07Smd8Tik3dXVyb6BByA9bxj6xw8H5SIXSgunAXCSmxbzyO1dbdcY7in/w400-h225/car-dealership-nada-612pb.jpg" width="400" /></div><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br /></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span lang="EN"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span lang="EN">It was a really nice morning on this regular Tuesday. The diesel truck that was scheduled to arrive was on time and was going to be bringing lots of parts for high-end cars. It was a racing car company and they were delivering some panels and tires which were of great expense. The panel on this day was one of 450 parts that were on the truck for us. The driver backs the truck in and I started to unload the parts with the driver. Most of our parts are either bare or are loaded in cardboard boxes for protection. Large expensive parts are usually covered in a box and in this case, a 29 thousand dollar panel for a racing car was set to be delivered. Unknown to myself the part had actually cut the box. This meant that the part was sitting outside the <a href="http://disurworld.blogspot.com/2018/07/using-office-moving-checklist-to.html">cardboard box</a>. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span lang="EN"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span lang="EN">What happened was that the driver had picked it up and it ended up dragging on the concrete floor. This was unknown to all of us checking in the product and in the end, all the parts were checked in and I started to store them away. It was not until a week later that the tear was found when the part was needed to be installed. The panel had bent and the paint was chipped due to the part being exposed to the concrete and floor. Since I was the person who had checked the product in I was responsible for it. It was actually not myself who had put the product away and I was not aware of anything but the product being in the store. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span lang="EN"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1800" height="333" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyAuJlUWYAfowSbDioYGNVwjMVpt73KzmIcorbbmspdVwUOUrWxvC05tZVJ6vRfhNDXbARGREnubYBPwvZn1BxOPo5R73GyFJYgnjgnkMU2TW43355xwrZkbKfe-29UceU9XevOegEXu4p/w500-h333/merlin_166609887_a96bd095-248b-4a2e-b9ce-03d97629b9fc-mobileMasterAt3x.jpg" width="500" /></div><br /><span lang="EN"><br /></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span lang="EN"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span lang="EN">The paper product had failed to contain the panel and it ended up being damaged. This was not only a 29 thousand dollar loss for the store but the car was not able to be fixed until another one was shipped. So we had to eat the cost of the two weeks the racing car sat in our garage. It was a sad situation and I was the only one blamed. The parts failure was not my fault and I was told I would be fired for it. After explaining the situation to my direct manager he was convinced that it was incompetence. I simply told the store manager the exact story and he agreed with me that I did as any normal person would in the situation. This took a week and was stressful to get through and insurance ended up covering the loss.<o:p></o:p></span></p>Kendall Espinalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767660955622622175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631090439500051693.post-49913863042763447292018-03-11T00:47:00.001-08:002021-07-08T01:53:51.171-07:00 If You Are Working From Home Right Now, Then Read This!!!<p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">So I know a thing or two about the business world. Let’s just say I’ve done my fair share of entrepreneurship and <a href="http://disurworld.blogspot.com/2018/07/using-office-moving-checklist-to.html" target="_blank">business </a>administration to know the do’s and don’ts of business. The biggest thing for me is that I see a lot of companies doing a lot of things wrong. Specifically, I see businesses starting to call their workers back from working at home to come back into the office. If you’re not quite sure what I’m talking about, the COVID19 pandemic caused our world to pretty much go into complete shut down, and a lot of businesses either closed completely or sent their employees to work from home. Many people actually enjoyed working at home, and we saw a lot of people commit themselves to working at home and really being productive during quarantine.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdky6FhwgoXPiPWK4ktFb3uBYeisgjzh71Z-KpdQbKJ0osriguJ_WTXcoee_xUZ6l8sm6Us_sp9Tn9RXBH7FExKYlxmHUYbV27XGCy-FdLHp17XUUKGVT0N-j9sLlYIUXemNmeDsdTxI49/s1260/Boxes_blur-1260x945.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="945" data-original-width="1260" height="343" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdky6FhwgoXPiPWK4ktFb3uBYeisgjzh71Z-KpdQbKJ0osriguJ_WTXcoee_xUZ6l8sm6Us_sp9Tn9RXBH7FExKYlxmHUYbV27XGCy-FdLHp17XUUKGVT0N-j9sLlYIUXemNmeDsdTxI49/w457-h343/Boxes_blur-1260x945.jpg" width="457" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"> However, it is true that a lot of businesses are starting to pull their employees back into the office now that regulations are being lifted and more and more people are getting vaccinated. I personally am vaccinated, so I’m all set in that area. Yeah that’s right, I got both doses of the COVID19 vaccine and am all set for whatever kind of COVID virus comes my way. So in this article, I will be talking about some of the pros and cons of working from home, and this hopefully will serve as a guide for any business owners or managers who are trying to decide whether or not to bring their employees back to in-person work. Or, maybe you are trying to figure out if working remotely is something that you as an employee want; in that case, this article is for you too.</span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-ba71e85f-7fff-f61e-9004-a458c11ec4d8"><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zknLfU7GJIw" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So first off, I must say that there are a lot of pros to working from home. Let’s start with talking about working from home first. I think the biggest benefit of working at home is that you don’t have to drive all the way to work, especially when it is busy on the roads or if it is rush hour or something like that. Not only do employees get to save on gas costs of traveling, it also reduces the total carbon emissions from a company’s employees which will help save the planet a little bit longer from its ultimate and inevitable destruction. Another benefit of working from home is that you do not have to worry about dressing up.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicS4Wb0A6j5euc2cAAXDiI-Rhcx4wvLyhp-lad3LhapgINlCIQQDCOdkwfKxyFBSBLuT5ftDA0Ii7aMyFwAx1gdz8FBGVAE42WxixiAnnU-GO6n2IYN_RIwv1XadAgvm5UTMNGqnCsr06t/s460/190715084257-amazon-emplyee-box-restricted-large-169.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="259" data-original-width="460" height="248" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicS4Wb0A6j5euc2cAAXDiI-Rhcx4wvLyhp-lad3LhapgINlCIQQDCOdkwfKxyFBSBLuT5ftDA0Ii7aMyFwAx1gdz8FBGVAE42WxixiAnnU-GO6n2IYN_RIwv1XadAgvm5UTMNGqnCsr06t/w441-h248/190715084257-amazon-emplyee-box-restricted-large-169.jpg" width="441" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Now this depends on the person and the work; what I mean by this is that some businesses require employees to dress up in very formal attire and look extremely professional at work, while others require a simple business casual or even completely casual look. Where the difference is, is that some people enjoy dressing up while others don’t. I personally like to dress in business casual, because it is enough to get me in the mindset of working for the day, but it’s not to the point where it has to take a long time in the morning or be a big deal. I will say, working at home means you can get your mail quicker, and open those Amazon cardboard boxes faster to get your stuff faster. I absolutely love getting cardboard boxes in the mail because it means that I’ve gotten cool stuff.</span></p><br /></span>Kendall Espinalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05767660955622622175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4631090439500051693.post-74609384486452165002017-03-01T09:58:00.001-08:002022-01-07T10:04:51.414-08:00Usage and Applications of Printed roll Bags <p><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Do you want to ship items the old-fashioned way, or maybe you’re a medical supplier looking for material that packages certain products? </span><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Or maybe you’re an online business that requires more packaging to offer better fulfillment. </span><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Regardless of the different places to work, you want flexible packaging that works for the needs that you have.</span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-aa4d7355-7fff-0b10-e69a-bfa590a2b64e"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span face="Calibri, sans-serif" style="font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Printed roll bags is becoming more and more popular, and that’s for a good reason.

When customers don’t have the access they need to this, you need to also look at alternatives that are sustainable to this type of packaging as well. </span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-5e777fc8-7fff-882a-a2ba-dcbb12068d61"><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Why compostable Packaging </span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="http://disurworld.blogspot.com/2018/10/why-consider-expanding-your-product.html" target="_blank">Compostable packaging</a> is super popular. This is because those who want eco-friendly packaging love it. a lot of customers will even switch their brands if they find out a company is doing compostable packaging. </span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">It’s basically a packaging that degrades over time, and usually, you can either do this at home for your gardens or at a facility that composts this correctly so that it degrades.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="320" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VFF_tFY86YY" width="511" youtube-src-id="VFF_tFY86YY"></iframe></div><br /><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The problem is a lot of companies don’t give this option. Some customers aren’t able to send this out, so they aren't able to create sustainable packaging. </span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Does that mean that the customers are basically not being eco-friendly? No, you’re the one that did it, so the right alternatives to compostable packaging will give these users the feeling of being sustainable, while also offering better packaging alternatives for them to look at.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Biodegradable Packaging </span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This is the best alternative to compostable packaging that’s out there. </span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">You may wonder if they’re the same thing. The short answer is no. Biodegradable and compostable have some levels of similarities, but they’re not going to be the same thing.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You might ask, what’s the difference then. </span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Biodegradable means that you can throw this in the trash, and it breaks down fast. It also doesn’t require a compost bin, and for the most part, it’s better for those who don’t have the means to compost.

If someone buys them within 24 hrs. of seeing the ad, you can offer them an incentive to buy to get this sale. That way, you don’t have to worry about them waiting. They just buy it. </span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">There’s a lot of ways you can take advantage of this, and it can definitely help with getting shoppers to make decisions before they can think.

A little gift, or maybe even a message with the purchase is a good way to start. It doesn’t have to be huge or expensive. Rather, it shows that the customers are willing to put in extra time, effort, and the like. It really builds that connection and gets them to remember you. </span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvk37ICgdWQgRcyuHPHNT5P2ANVb4ok2ePvqfGl1a6R2coElPGSMEegyj4v9SWLmIbFwN4ocRUWY1ERSrD9XLwh44g6WDGQHEx12XxsHoSeuffKjozNNIRC_dL5vGN8NH-27rLppnh5UdWgGCV1XzOtQJkAHgjMGkc-CHEl5wZNghbTYVgS2fR_yZc_jdH/s1000/image-asset%20(2).jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvk37ICgdWQgRcyuHPHNT5P2ANVb4ok2ePvqfGl1a6R2coElPGSMEegyj4v9SWLmIbFwN4ocRUWY1ERSrD9XLwh44g6WDGQHEx12XxsHoSeuffKjozNNIRC_dL5vGN8NH-27rLppnh5UdWgGCV1XzOtQJkAHgjMGkc-CHEl5wZNghbTYVgS2fR_yZc_jdH/w460-h306/image-asset%20(2).jpeg" width="460" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Customized packaging is good for creativity and customization.

Due to the hardy nature of cacti, they’re perfect for green collections. </span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">One company that’s been taking advantage of this is the Colecti Cacti, which was designed by Maria Carreno and Tamara Segura. They created this packaging, and through this student project, they created a packaging that’s simple, along with sustainable.</span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-535c7019-7fff-c930-92c9-f19aea06873d"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This is a cardboard packaging that does replace the normal plastic that’s used in pots in various flower shops.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">While the plastic packaging has been used for a while, a lot of people are looking for a greener motive, and the Colecti cacti is available to make this work for people.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This offers twelve different types of <a href="http://disurworld.blogspot.com/2018/10/why-consider-expanding-your-product.html" target="_blank">packaging</a>, and it’s got a range that’s chromatic, and allows for buyers to make and choose the color combos that are there. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="416" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mLG2jPJdsPE" width="501" youtube-src-id="mLG2jPJdsPE"></iframe></div><br /><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Function and Form </span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The cool thing about this packaging is that it’s perfect for what it’s used for.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The shape of this is very distinct, similar to truncated cones. It makes these products more modular. The packaging can be placed in an upside down fashion, so that it creates new models that sit right next to each other, boosting preservation. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The pack does come with a small rope handle that holds this in different holes. This system is very easy for a person to carry, avoiding plant damage when a buyer transports all of this. This handle also improves the transportation of different cacti that someone can get. Say you want to buy more than one, then there you go.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1qQA687F5DqSQGcdlk5AXdvI2AK18TWA9RMf5_b5W2bRImGs00ob816cXbTb-XtfVfd2P5Ff8M8KRdoPkuzwgyURjy1-mFLfGBjfJ5gUHVG5xzclNjkQKnOhBlSaAeVFd-AggCOqW2LxxMzawnII63Tzl2YTecfBr5xWlrFIm9PqlRm_F2WteF5XPwQ/s1920/a3fd5c81192005.5cf7d1e216d99.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1920" height="339" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1qQA687F5DqSQGcdlk5AXdvI2AK18TWA9RMf5_b5W2bRImGs00ob816cXbTb-XtfVfd2P5Ff8M8KRdoPkuzwgyURjy1-mFLfGBjfJ5gUHVG5xzclNjkQKnOhBlSaAeVFd-AggCOqW2LxxMzawnII63Tzl2YTecfBr5xWlrFIm9PqlRm_F2WteF5XPwQ/w509-h339/a3fd5c81192005.5cf7d1e216d99.jpg" width="509" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Two packaging sides that are there also do say the days on where each side will be exposed to light sources. This is because a lot of cacti require different levels of sunlight, and you need to make sure that you provide them with sunlight on each side, in order to grow in a harmonious fashion. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It’s minimalist, but very effective in the way that this works. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The colecti cacti is something that’s bringing a new idea to the realm of plant packaging. Right now however, this is not commercialized, and instead brings to light the imperative nature of a cactus and plant package that is sustainable. As more and more companies are looking to create packaging solutions that are sustainable, while also effective, this is one that sits near the forefront as one of the best packaging solutions that are out there.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you’re interested in this, you’re not alone. While they can’t give you the exact same packaging as the Colecti Cacti, this does offer open ended boxes, where you can provide a graphic, custom sizes, and also handle cutouts for you to put on there with the dieline. You can make something very similar, which is great for a lot of people who are interested in cactus packaging. That’s because, when you choose to do this, you’re creating a cactus packaging that’s simple, effective, and really shines.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2Ghz1UoMoRM11artt6mAjixqvshiG9LH2IcGzyqL-v3qDghZXkbSCm-Im1FoTi8VS_e92K25Ny_Wd9ww3FU0bbone9_y3QtgIWd3_09AXBUCD1IYiikw-SZVih0noCdxWALl1bQlyilFM00HzQ0xKdPfZXAiBXPLgoFnwNyQKmqYEgBpu0A_g7YjRXQ/s1341/aspen9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1341" data-original-width="1000" height="499" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2Ghz1UoMoRM11artt6mAjixqvshiG9LH2IcGzyqL-v3qDghZXkbSCm-Im1FoTi8VS_e92K25Ny_Wd9ww3FU0bbone9_y3QtgIWd3_09AXBUCD1IYiikw-SZVih0noCdxWALl1bQlyilFM00HzQ0xKdPfZXAiBXPLgoFnwNyQKmqYEgBpu0A_g7YjRXQ/w373-h499/aspen9.jpg" width="373" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you’re bored with the current packaging that you have and you wish to get the right packaging in place, then you’ll most definitely want to look into this. try it out and see what’s right for you. Have fun with the plant packaging that you can bring and try working on this today.

However, you might wonder where printed stretch wrapping comes from, and where it might be. </span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-182312fc-7fff-52aa-e649-2fd95eccc0c2"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stretch wrapping is ideal for advertising different products, and it is something that’s good for storage and transit. Usually, they tend to cost more due to the options that they have. Here are some of the steps that a person might take for custom printed stretch wrapping. </span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Understand the Pricing and Minimums </span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The first thing to understand is that you need to know the minimums. On average, the minimum is just a pallet, and the minimum is set up, and usually takes down the time for every single print job. For the stretch film rolls, one pallet usually is about 192 different rolls. For machine stretch, one pallet comes with 40 rolls. The machine rolls usually are a lot longer than the hand rolling, so keep that in mind. The pricing does vary based on the colors, and the type of the film that you’re going to print on. Most of the time, for super customized options, you’re looking at more than 5 grand for these. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="396" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/f-XmteXd5lw" width="476" youtube-src-id="f-XmteXd5lw"></iframe></div><br /></span><p></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 400; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Determine the thickness and color </span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The logo and the color are what will determine the ideal stretch and the color choice for the film. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Clear is the cheapest, but it’s not what will make logos look good. White is another one that’s pretty common, as it lets the artwork, and the logos stand out. Logos that are most white will be printed on a black colored film as well. both the white and the black logo are perfect for containment of the load, and they usually are opaque too.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The thickness must be considered. Most of the time, you should look at the different types to choose the right kind of film for the job. The most commonly used are the 80 gauge, but it might not be good for you to get something different. Bear in mind that the printing of this cannot be done on super thin films.

Packaging also does contribute to the loyalty of customers, so that they can return products because of their packaging. Any packaging that’s easy to recycle also does drive customer purchases. They’ll come back if they can do that. Over 60% of customers say that they like sustainable packaging, including corrugated paper and paper <a href="https://disurworld.blogspot.com/2018/10/why-consider-expanding-your-product.html" target="_blank">packaging items</a>.
