Running a successful business can bring on many challenges. Hiring, cash flow management, sales, and inventory are likely to be major points of concern that require a lot of brainpower and can be mentally taxing.
However, there are other concerns in a wholesale business that come up on a case by case basis. By offering great products to your clients, you can form healthy and lasting relationships. This can be done in many ways, but one is by providing items that others do not. If you are providing a service that is needed and there is little competition and you are intentional about providing a high quality experience, you are likely to prosper.
Those selling coffee mugs can choose to use cheap wholesale mugs, but everyone else out there is going to be doing the same thing. You can make a bigger impact and stand out by offering handmade mugs that offer a bit more creativity and flair.
Why Handmade Products?
There are many reasons to choose handmade products over mass-produced inventory for your wholesale business, and we will cover a number of them in this article.
Consumers want to make a difference, and handmade products fit the bill. Many handmade goods are created in an environment that is more environmentally conscious than mass market facilities.- People like to own and use things of high-quality, and handmade goods are just that.
- Handmade items are perceived as memorable and unique, making them an excellent choice.
- Consumers desire a human connection, whether buying online or offline. Handmade items provide that connection as the products are crafted by artisans, not machines.
Durability
Handmade coffee mugs are more sturdy than mass-produced products are. These mugs are typically kiln-fired and built to last a lifetime. You cannot say the same for the crate of mass-produced coffee mugs that are the usual alternative. Quality drives sales, as customers want to know they will have a mug around for a long time.
Our customers are usually happy to discover that all of our stoneware is lead-free and food safe, making it a good option to keep for the long run. Various craftspeople work on each mug, allowing for uniform vessels that have been checked and rechecked for quality. When selling to other businesses, this is important. If they are aware of the quality in your products, repeat orders are likely.
Customization
Most people love a touch of customization in their products. While you can get a logo or design put on to mass-produced mugs, the quality is not the same as it is with handmade stoneware. With custom handcrafted mugs, this problem is immediately negated. Your design or logo can be offered in endless ways. For your customers, this means that their particular needs will always be met.
In addition, customization is also available with regards to glaze type, color, and other aspects of the coffee mug. If your client desires a fantastical mug with warm colors and a particular font, it is not a problem to provide it. If the next customer wants a more traditional coffee mug, you can provide that just as easily.
Branding
You want to make your company look good at every turn, and so does your consumer. Handmade coffee mugs take care of that problem with ease. Specific details can be added that speak to the aesthetic and values of a company. A logo can be implemented from a design, or the person making the coffee mug can work with building something new.
By offering a logo and distinct colors, your customer will be seen in a crowd. People may ask you more about the handmade mug and it’s unique design and quality. This is unlikely to occur with one of the many mass-produced mugs on the market today. The world wants something different and new, which you can give to them easily with handmade stoneware mugs.
Pricing
You might wonder if handmade coffee mugs are going to be too expensive to invest in, but you would be surprised to see that the expense is easily covered. Those who provide decorative and signature stoneware often offer their products at wholesale pricing. This means that as long as you are ordering in bulk, you can get a great discount on your orders.
In addition, by offering these types of mugs, you can expect to make more with each sale. People are willing to pay more for a good quality item that sets them apart from the competition. Handmade coffee mugs will do that by providing a great signature piece that serves as an advertisement for their brand.
Handmade, a clear choice
These wholesale coffee mugs can be custom ordered and made just for you or your client. The mugs are classy and stylish while remaining affordable. Company logos are showcased in a way that will bring attention to them, without being overbearing.
Orders are available for 48 pieces or more and can incorporate two-tone artistic glazes or subtle one color options. Whether you are selling to a company with a conservative image or one that is on the breaking edge of creativity, products are available to fit their needs.
