@Tim I sent an email to PaintPaddles.com that we are ready to place an order. They take orders by phone, but are not open until Monday. Their office hours are M-F (800 430 EST). This is the email I sent: “Hello. I would like to order two boxes of PP12118. It would be shipped to a different address than the one above. Thank you, Franicia”

@Tim Does this box look like it will fit 100 of the paint sticks? https://www.uline.com/Product/Detail/S-2515/Literature-Mailers/12-1-8-x-9-1-4-x-2-Kraft-Literature-Mailers

Card wording: “Thank you for trusting us with your business”

@Tim I copied and made an entirely Illustrator-made logo for Edgeway. It was doable because I chose basic industry fonts and basic shapes.

@Tim How does this logo look? It’s made with Illustrator. I just put images on top of my original concept one and deleted that when I was done. 🙂

@Tim I’m done designing the product card for our second private label product. This is the first one from Edgeway USA. They are for paint sticks (100 pcs) 12" size. Some people may want to know they’re gallon size in the description perhaps. I made the products cards with information that are selling points for the wooden paint sticks. We are printing them with Vistaprint and I’m just waiting for you to see what I designed before I can place the order.

@Tim commented on @Franicia’s file https://whitefamily.slack.com/files/U02BY23UR/F9USM8MMW/edgeway_usa_logo__2001x_.pdf: @Franicia Can you make a jpg and png (with transparant background) version of the logo?

@Franicia commented on @Franicia’s file https://whitefamily.slack.com/files/U02BY23UR/F9USM8MMW/edgeway_usa_logo__2001x_.pdf: @Tim Yes, and I already made a png (with transparent background) file. It’s in the folder for the new logo made with Illustrator. 🙂 Why do you ask?

@Tim I ordered the Vistaprint product cards for the paint sticks. We paid $16.48 for 250 business product cards. I originally ordered 100 and used a 50% off coupon (saved $8). Then we were given a special offer for an additional 150 cards for $1.50 and took it. The order form now says we saved $8.51. These product cards cost us $0.07 each. 🙂 They took me off the slowest shipping for some reason. So now the estimated delivery date is March 30. Order Number: MKPNC-Q4A74-6H8

@Tim I’m estimating that our paint sticks product will cost us around $8.41 before packing tape and Amazon shipping label. Amazon fees might be about $5-6. What do you think about that?

@Tim Didn’t you want 2 cases of the 1000 paint paddles (so 2000 paint paddles)? It is not reflected in the Google sheet. You had placed the price of the smaller one and I changed it to the $60 one for the 12" gallon one.

Started a call.

@Tim Should I make this purchase or adjust it?

@Tim commented on @Franicia’s file : @Franicia That shipping price is pretty steep! I wonder if we should get another case so that the freight charges take a smaller bite out of the profit. What do you think?

@Franicia commented on @Franicia’s file : @Tim Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.

@Franicia commented on @Franicia’s file : @Tim When we get 3, the price drops from $60 to $53. So that’s good.

@Tim commented on @Franicia’s file : @Franicia Yeah, that's good. Can you ask if there's a cheaper shipping option? FedEx is usually pretty expensive.

@Franicia commented on @Franicia’s file : @Tim I sent to emails to ask for a new price quote for three cases. Then I asked if there was a cheaper shipping option.

@Franicia I’m thinking that we could have the package delivered either to 120 Chiefs Way Suite 1 Pensacola, FL 32507 ($5 charge) or our mail forwarding service address then pick the items up ourselves. I know that the 120 Chiefs Way address is considered a commercial address. I need to find out about Childers St.

@Tim I just placed the order for the 12" paint paddles by phone. She called me back. I’ll add more details here later. She’ll be sending the order confirmation number by email. It should be shipped by tomorrow. It has a 4 day transit time from Maine to Florida. We did save money using a business address instead of a residential one. | Updated: $224.90 ($159.00 at $53 each since it was discounted at 3 cases from $60) and shipping charges at $65.90. So we saved a total of around $41(-$5) or $36 with this order. 🙂

@Tim The outer boxes arrived from Amazon. They were accidentally delivered to our neighbor’s house as well.

@Tim I got an email and the paint sticks/paddles should arrive on Monday by the end of the day.

@Tim Our Vistaprint cards arrived for the paint sticks and they look good.

@Tim I’m finally done making the Edgeway USA insert cards. Yay!

@Franicia commented on @Franicia’s file https://whitefamily.slack.com/files/U02BY23UR/FA09NC5V5/insert_card__vistaprint__5d677c_back_3.pdf: @Tim It should take me a few seconds to fix these to the bleed.

@Tim I ordered our insert cards. There was a huge discount before and after even with adding color to the back. $46.45 (for both this and Princess Paper Press’ insert cards and so split the payment between the two). 🙂 Order Number: H3ZFM-Q4A20-2S2 | Estimated Delivery Date is April 4 or 6

@Tim The paint sticks should have arrived at the mail center yesterday. Do you know if they have? 🙂
