Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving.\u00a0 It’s the traditional start of the official Christmas shopping season in the USA.\u00a0 On this day, stores have some of their best sales of the year.\u00a0 Massive discounts on certain items, loss leaders to get you in the door, lots and lots of rebates.\u00a0 This is the day you’ve heard about on the news when people line up outside stores in lawn chairs at 2 AM just to be one of the first ones inside.<\/p>\n
To quote Wikipedia:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n “The “black” in the name comes from the standard accounting practice of using red ink to denote negative values (i.e., losses) and black ink to denote positive values (profits).\u00a0 Black Friday is the day when retailers traditionally get back “in the black” after operating “in the red” for the previous months.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n If you are planning to sell to traditional retailers, your product must be on their shelves well before US Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n \n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″

thinking about placing a production order to arrive for the Christmas season, you will want to get going as early as possible.\u00a0 As we get closer to Black Friday (the day after American Thanksgiving), the shipping lanes slow down from congestion, and delivery can be delayed.\u00a0 We will do what we can to get your orders in early, but you can help by placing production orders as soon as possible.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″ column_structure=”3_5,2_5″][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||”

shipping some goods in, and the rest can come in by Don’t Panic!<\/strong><\/p>\n First of all, we can speed things up a little bit without increasing your costs.\u00a0 But to do this we do need your help.\u00a0 For smaller orders (under 6,000 pieces) we need you to be flexible with material Second.\u00a0 Good news…<\/strong><\/p>\n Christmas comes every year!\u00a0 I know how important it is to you to get your toys out this year, but if you can think in terms of the next few years that can take the pressure off of you.\u00a0 Look at selling this year for Christmas as ‘practice’ and then fine tune your skills over the next seven to eight months when you will be all set for next Christmas.\u00a0 It is an exciting process that shifts your mindset from “NOW!!!” to <\/p>\n
