Orders have landed!
Waiting all day for the carriers. If I hadn't they would've left 6 boxes on my lawn or driveway.
3/5 of the boxes were ripped on the side with the product sticking out. So counting all 500 units to make sure everything is there. Its also heavy so moving and counting 500 units into another box in 90degree heat sucks. The 2 worst boxes all have 100 units each, I'm hoping the last box will be whole. I'll finish inventory later when its less hot.
Still waiting on UPS for my last and final order sometime today. Usually he shows up around this time.
Stuff I've done while waiting:
- Redesigned the packaging insert/instructional sheet thru Illustrator. Also the FNSKU is printed on it directly. Redesigned the size of the insert so it does not shift in the polybag so it is always scannable by Amazon. Saves me labor of printing labels and applying myself or $.20/each for Amazon to do it.
- Ordered the prints, should be here by Thursday
- Ordered shipping supplies to send into Amazon, poly bags, etc.
- Ordered a tool to make assembly easier
- Finished listing on Amazon
- Reshot product photos and edited in Photoshop
To Do:
- Take inventory of all units for each piece and check quality
- Move to bigger boxes
- Set up Shipping/Assembly station
- Assemble 75-100 units, box it up and send it into Amazon
- Ask some friends to purchase when it goes live, start running PPC once I have a few reviews
