Are you currently add ing or dropping any products from your line?

I am droppinh whipped soap & body wash. They do not more for me.

I will be adding M&P soap.
 
I'm dropping Beer Soap, Liquid Soap, Charcoal Soap & molded (cutsie) soaps for the same reason. I'm increasing my GM line-up and have added some new scents.....

I'm also adding Sugar Scrubs & Lotions, as well as another Body Butter.....
 
I like charcoal soaps for personal use, it probably was/is a short lived market trend though.
 
I know I'm trading Honey Almond Oatmeal for Oatmeal Milk and Honey...

And the little cutesy soaps? I totally thought people would dig those, but no. I'm going to use them as "filler" in gift boxes.

M&P? Yes. Mostly just to ding the stupid vendors that have no clue about soap and are touting theirs as "all natural" and the reason why theirs is cheap is because there's no packaging. And smoking a ciggie while they're selling their soap that smells like bad bathroom deoderant.

Those 2 are a bulk of my buisness. I am always adding and dropping items. My recent drops are Strawberries n Cream, Peaches n Cream, Apple, all were CP, lotion, and body spray. Also dropped my chocolate soap, it smelled great, I had a young one take a bite out of a bar. I am adding liquid shampoo (undesided on scents), conditioner, foaming hand soap, and a greasy hands soap bar.

Bruce isn't it funny what the different markets are trending to? I thought beer soap would be a HUGE seller especially since I was using a local brewery, but not the case at all. GM continues to grow for me as do all of my B&B orducts. Liquid soap - it sells, but not a huge one for me at all. I found between here and Fort Langley the market was quite different.
 
I am reformulating my anhydrous body butters, so they are out until I have finished testing my new recipe. Solid lotion bars will be added next market. I have found that I have different 'best sellers' at markets to my soap parties, although my chocolate soap won't be made again. No one took a bite Bruce!....but everyone who likes chocolate tells me they wouldn't want to shower with it, so go figure :wink:

Frangipani is my all time best selling fragrance, so that will stay in my range, probably forever. My favourite florals (BBs Baby Rose and Sweetpea) are slow movers until I have a soap party where the average age of the guests is over 50 - then they fly off the table! I am keeping my citrus blend soaps as they continue to sell well.
