:scratchch coyacoy - You may be on to something. QB thread said there is not enough stock to have a sale.

I can def go for a Henna Sooq sale.

I call bullish!t on this one! QB should just say they ain't gon be having sales anymore or don't want to sell their products at a discounted price and stop playing already. All of a sudden sage ain't stocked for their sale despite them having been VERY regularly stocked all year AND the QB site miraculously reopens after having been closed all this time (since last year!) always citing it would reopen when it could have "an extended" sale....I hope I can wind up eating my words because I am starting to feel some kind of way about continuing to purchase these products and a couple of them are really so good! I just can't go for the okey doke

And I'm horrified that a few feel some sense of entitlement regarding vendors and their promotion details. It's an individual's choice whether or not to make a purchase, but the entitlement attitude is a bit much considering no vendor is obligated to give anyone anything. And let us remember that some vendors offer reasonable prices and even "subsidize" shipping costs all year long.

Oh and this is Supergirl, the 10 year LHCF member talking, not Jorien, the Silk Dreams owner. ;) Thanks

I don't think we feel entitled. BF is supposed to be one of the biggest shopping days and have some of the biggest and best sales. So I think some expected your sale to be better than 10%. To me and a lot more 10% is not really a sale. To be honest I really didn't think your sale was going to be a "good" one b/c it really wasn't last year...however last year sale might have been better than this years. Sorry, girl I still love you and your products. I respect the fact that you don't use bases(at least I don't think you do) and think your products are not as high as some other small businesses but again a lot of people on here feel as though 10% off is not a sale..at least not a BF sale.

Off Topic-what's the shelf life of your products?

Why did you delete your comment?

gorgeoushair I didn't want to come across as catty.

Basically, I said that I have no problem paying full price for products...I do that year round, but during this time of year when every retailer in America is offering deep discounts, a company that isn't having a decent sale is not entitled to my money.

That goes for everything - not just hair care. If it's not on sale, during the months of November and December, I'm not buying it!

I didn't notice any comments from you earlier, so I was referring to another. I'm not in the business of calling anyone out specifically though. I think the tone and approach with which people choose to express their thoughts makes a big difference in whether they sound entitled or like they were just hoping for something else. My company is not the only one that I'm referring to regarding decent regular prices and shipping. In business, you can't please everyone, but a particular comment in this thread was made by a member who has made "demanding" comments previously regarding the operations and business decisions of Silk Dreams. There's a fine line between feedback/suggestions feedback and acting as if businesses owe you something. As a consumer, when I want/need something, I make my request known in a diplomatic, non-entitled way. I don't act like I am owed anything.


So I just want to be clear that no one is obligated to patronize any particular business, and at the same time no business owes anyone anything in terms of sales and discounts. Is that a fair statement?

I have been wondering something about certain companies. Not Supergirl's company but just in general. Maybe certain companies really don't participate in BF sales or really go all out because they really don't need or want the extra business. I know that sounds dumb but maybe some of them feel as though they don't want the headache of having to fill alot of extra orders and take the chance on falling behind and receiving backlash so they just opt out and roll with the orders they get on the norm. It seems like alot of these companies are maybe 1 or 2 people operations and just would rather not deal so they will just take the few extra orders they might get from giving 10% or 15% as oppose to the possible orders they might of gotten by giving a better deal. I could be totally off base with this:lol:

not catty at all :) That's how business works. Consumers decide to buy or not to buy. Your statement is objective, while others have decided to be critical.

Well, at this time, I have tried to align the particulars of the sale with current demand, and we've been pretty steady/busy after we hit our 1 year mark. Besides my already competitive pricing :), it is also true that a very deep discount would likely bring in a number of orders that would have customers having to wait too long for their orders. You make a very good point and yes you're right.
 
People please keep in mind that most of the small natural hair care vendors are just that. They don't have the capital or supply to keep up with the high demands. Now they can probably take all your orders but not fulfill them for a month or two and that's not acceptable either. Hosting a BF SALE could mean a major backlog of orders due yo high demand and little supply and then they get slammed for poor CS. Also on BF, it's the stores who offer the sale and take a year end loss only to write it off their taxes. With the largely discounted door busters, boutique businesses just can't afford that kind of loss. I love businesses like QB and will support it, sale or no sale, I want them and others like them to become the next top commercial line that still provides superior product.

Don't get me wrong, I love me a fantastic sale but I won't blacklist a vendor because they won't give away money. It's hard out here for small businesses, cut them some slack.

I wasn't just speaking for myself but everyone who doesn't think 10% off is a BF sale. You're right, you can't please everyone.

Thanks for putting this out there. Before I was a small business owner, I would not have thought this way, so I'm sure there are others who never thought of it this way either. 'Tis true. :)

I agree but I also think you can plan ahead and put limits on the products a customer can buy.
 
Re: BLACK FRIDAY 2012 SALES "PLEASE POST HERE"

Sorry hon gorgeoushair

Here ya go:

Q: Since SD products are handmade, should I put them in the refrigerator?
A: No, it is not necessary to refrigerate the products since they contain a preservative.
The shelf life of the conditioning and cleansing products is approximately 6 months.
The shelf life of butter and oil products is 2-4 months.

Not sure if you were going off of the lady who called out Qhemet, but I think her bottom line was to not say that you will have a sale and then not have it.

That is a lame business practice.

I didn't read it to be in response to my QB rant; but you're right - I could ultimately care less whether they decide to discount their products or not but make a decision and be transparent AND timely in communicating it. For example, I need a couple of QB items now but if there is a sale in the next few days, of course I am going to hold off for it. Saving a few bucks is saving a few bucks any way you slice it - especially for something you planned to order anyway. Just quit with the "don't know the deets yet" BS - that uncertainty is negatively impacting my purchasing experience. I digress, though - this thread is about actual sales. And ther are some good ones this year!

I so agree.

Keshieshimmer I used QB as an example. My comment was general and not specific to any particular person. QB was called out by several posters so I'm unsure how you came to that conclusion. Nevertheless, it was your conclusion to make.

Happy Thanksgiving and BF Shopping all!
