Quick toughts on possible shipping boxes?
Discussion
Yes.. I went back to black. The beige dosen't seem to fit well on shipping boxes. (Didn't remove background color bit it gives an idea) maybe it does look OK?
Nice
Wass looking at luxury boxes, the price per item is fine by me (5$/boxes) but the minimum order quantity of 300 units make it unaffordable... for now 😏
Fancy shipping boxes/materials are fiat. People buy your stuff for the product, not what it's shipped in.
I disagree. Shopping is an experience and I want to provide an experience that represents how I see bitcoiners. They are kings that deserve a buisness that cares.
Luxury isn't fiat. A cathedral is Luxury, it isn't fiat.
You go in an hotel to sleep safely. The bed is the priority but it's cool when you have a good experience and the walls are well painted too.
But it shouldn't be my priority.
I'm going to agree with you here. Good presentation leaves an impact and creates a talking point. Word of mouth is your biggest area for advertising.
Experiences, like visiting a cathedral or staying in a hotel, are different than a product so purchase.
Apples to oranges comparison.
But I also get the nuance of the type of product and that 'luxury' products like a wallet or watch are different than say 9mm ammo. I don't care what my ammo comes in but a watch could be different so I see where you are coming from
Imagine renovating the outside of the hotel (purely for eastetic) while the inside is already beautiful.
It's not necessary, you won't even see the outside when you're in.
I could also use the exemple of a brick and mortar store that decides to have a warehouse style building (Costco or a cheap furniture store) to cut on expenses at the expense of an experience and reduce prices. There's a market for this, sure. But the warehouse experience is not the one I aime to deliver.
I will build the leatherMint into a prestigious and respected establishment and the boxes are like my store front.
Don't. No one needs the box. Keep your costs low and stack more sats.
Stacking sats is not priority. Success is when I would've provided an experience that compares to a legit company but hyperbitcoinzed.
Packaging is part of the experience. But It shouldn't be my priority.
Packing is to get your product to a customer in one piece. A box is nice, but at $5 a pop, I'd rather stuff get shipped in a good bubble envelop or something since it's all going in the recycle.
