I've been working with a beauty product, and we do a lot of pop-up stands in Costco, Walmart, etc. The cream in itself is pretty expensive, so it's already hard to push it ($500 for an 80z bottle), but the product is amazing. Anyone who has actually taken the leap and bought it is in love with the results. How do I turn all the initial nos to yeses or at least to considerations? I've been finding it so hard because no one is interested in such a costly product in my experience, but members in other locations are able to get more sales, and I don't how. How can I do better?

Figure out where the people who will pay are and go there. I’d put money on the fact that the members who are doing well in other locations, probably in a more affluent area.

With a product like that, samples are going to be your friend. But to get them to bite, maybe figure out what their skincare pain points are and tell them how the product can solve those problems. People love talking about themselves so lead with a question rather than a pitch.

We do tons of samples and demos. People will balk at the price, but not the results. If we can get our product in customers' hands, they fall in love. I've had loads of people try it out at home and come back to purchase. It's way easier than just listing the benefits in person :)

Avoid mentioning the price upfront. Instead, focus on the unique benefits and results. Share real testimonials, before-and-after photos, or even short video clips of satisfied customers. People buy stories, not just products. Share the story behind the brand, the science, or the founder’s journey. Connect emotionally and make the product memorable.

Wow that is an expensive eye cream! Can't say I would ever spend that much on any product like that but I am sure there is a market for it. However, I don't know that the market of people would be at Costco. I agree with others though, maybe offering samples will help you get more sales.

My company blames my generation for not being able to hire everyday. “You guys don’t want to work” coming from some overweight, racist, old coaster.

Then sit here and can’t figure out why…
