What are the most popular gifts for Valentine’s Day?

“And, what items are the most popular gifts for Valentine’s Day?” Larry Garland laughs and states, “Anything that’s red is always popular”.
A lot of consumers during Valentine’s Day purchase couples products, lotions and lubes, but also couples-oriented vibrators and toys, as well, but more towards the softer end of the market. We also distribute the widest variety of couples games, the subjects of which are either romance, intimacy and nurturing games or party games.” Bonnie Feingold agrees, “More female friendly, for sure. Lubes, lingerie, and then there are the vibrator sales, but we tend to sell significantly great numbers of the cuter and more female-friendly/oriented products, aka: soft products.” Bo says, “Lover’s Choice Products, such as the Bed of Roses, but the Lover’s Choice product line overall is a very good seller, as are Kama Sutra products. The softer stuff, female-driven, all do well, but we do well on all products, such as the Waterproof Pocket Rocket and Jack Rabbit both give us high sales. That would be the same with lingerie and fashion, such as crotchless panties. You don’t really get the new stuff moving as much, because the core items really move at that time of year.” Tony Rankins states, “Novelties, lubes and vibrators are the big core selling items, and when it comes to vibrators, that part of the business has really changed because of the technological advances that have been made in vibrator technology, such as different speeds, actions, waterproof, material composition, computer controlled and wireless operation. Wireless remote controlled vibrating panties are a fun item. The man is holding the remote control in his pocket controlling the vibration and she can be sitting there at a restaurant table with a very happy look on her face as she’s getting buzzed.” “Men also tend to buy softer items, as well, and I’ve found that sometimes, depending upon the store, 75% of the time a man will buy a kit or game to set the romantic moment.” Bonnie Daegas adds, “Valentine’s Day is the lover’s time of the year, and anything sexual, erotica or couples-oriented all sell very well. We experience huge peaks at this time of the year, more so than Christmas, but Halloween has become incredibly huge, with so many of our retailers carrying erotic lingerie, shoes, costumes and related items like erotic props. Popular Products: Kits, lotions, couples oriented products, as well as pre-packed lingerie for women and briefs for men. Most of it is on the romantic couples side of the fence.”

Jen Donnelly - Athena’s Home Novelties
Athena’s is a great business opportunity! I’ve been with the company for almost a year now and have never loved a ‘job’ more!
PARTY PLAN:
Athena’s Home Novelties
TITLE:
Goddess & Team Leader
HOW LONG BEEN WITH COMPANY:
Since 2006
HOW DID YOU GET STARTED IN THE BUSINESS?:
I hosted a party one night and after watching my recruiter have so much fun I had to ask her about the business. I have learned from that night on that any Athena’s Goddess is willing to share their experience! This is a definite turn around from my full time job working in Insurance!
HOW FAR WILL YOU TRAVEL TO DO A HOME PARTY?:
All over Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Parts of Maine, New Hampshire and Connecticut also.
WHAT TYPE OF PARTIES DO YOU OFFER? WOMEN ONLY? MEN ONLY? COUPLES? MIXED?:
We love everyone! There is definitely no discrimination here, everyone loves to party!
DO YOU OFFER CUSTOMERS THE ABILITY TO DO CATALOG PARTIES?:
Absolutely!
DO YOU OR HAVE YOU EVER SOLD FOR ANY OTHER HOME PARTY PLAN? WHAT COMPANIES?:
When I was younger I sold Home & Garden Party products, but it was no where near as lucrative as Athena’s
WHAT WAS THE BIGGEST PARTY YOU HAVE DONE?:
I have had parties with over 30 women there and parties with over $1k being sold!
DID YOU HAVE AN UNUSUAL EXPERIENCE AT A PARTY?:
Not so much unusual as hysterical! The things people say while playing bingo ….
TELL US ABOUT OUR FAVORITE ITEM TO SELL:
I would have to say that is my best friend, the Lil’ Darlin!!! All the girls ohhh and ahhh over the cute turtle and they love the fact that it is waterproof and so quiet!
WHAT IS THE MOST POPULAR ITEM YOU SELL?:
The Lucid Dream is my #1 selling item! Other top sellers coming in a very close second are the Lil’ Darlin, Pure Instinct, Coochy Shave Cream, the Virtuality Sleeve, the Ayate Washcloth, the Lucid Dream, the Ruby Ring, and the Wet Lubricants!
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US?:
I am always looking for great people (both men and women alike!) to join my team. Athena’s is a great business opportunity! I’ve been with the company for almost a year now and have never loved a ‘job’ more! I am offering specials to new Goddess’s or Adoni signing on to be a member of my team, Bottoms Up. Contact me for more information on how I can be paying you to join Athena’s and earn extra money having fun and partying!
