Partysolver (http://www.partysolver.com), a leading E-Commerce party supplies company announces the launch of a new costume product line.
Partysolver buyers attended the 2007 Halloween, Costume and Party show for buyers in February in Chicago, IL. The show was instrumental in locating manufacturers and distributors under
one roof. Along with other sourced products, a solid initial costume product line was developed. The popularity of costumes is huge. Not only for Halloween and the Holidays but for
re-enactment groups and school plays, states owner Patricia Plona.
Sourcing products for a new line takes a keen sense of what will sell. It is not enough to have a pretty product. Current companies offerings are analyzed for the level of competition you
can expect. The customer type must be ascertained for both online and brick and mortar stores. During the show (Chicago) we needed to source potential suppliers, meet with their
representatives, compare quality, pricing, accessories available, terms of payment, shipping concerns and order lead time in what seemed to us like the Wall Street of Costume and Party
products, states owner Patricia Plona. Staying within a budget was difficult - we wanted everything we saw, states Ray Plona, Patricia'ss husband and co-owner.
With homework complete, and orders placed, we are confident that we will have a successful new product line.
