Work backward from your selling date
Start with the date when products must be on your shelves, not the holiday itself. Leave room for selection, payment, packing, transit and receiving. Transit times vary by destination and service, so confirm the current options before promising a launch date to customers.
Build a balanced assortment
Choose a few designs that suit different gift occasions and price points. A consistent core style can sit alongside a more eye-catching color or figurine version. Keep your first order manageable enough to learn which designs your customers actually choose.
- List each desired design, color and SKU separately.
- Check the minimum quantity and price tier for each selection.
- Keep product photos and dimensions with your buying notes.
Check the landed decision, not just unit price
The lowest unit price is not always the best buying decision. Compare the product subtotal with the available freight quotation and the space required to receive and store the cartons. Ask for clarification if carton measurements or the delivery service are not yet confirmed.
Leave time for a final review
Before submitting an order, review the recipient address, contact number, selected SKUs and quantities. Save a copy of the order details so your receiving team can compare delivered cartons against the purchase.
