If you don’t know anything about selling face rollers, it’s hard to get a commensurate return for your efforts.
So, this article will give you some knowledge about face rollers (sales side) and hope to give you some help in your face roller business.
1. About Face Roller Wholesale Price
Sourcing a product is the first step in our entire sales process. This will affect the final pricing of your product and your profit. So getting a fairly competitive product at the best price is a good start, but don’t get too hung up on pricing. Why? Let’s analyze the factors that affect the wholesale price of face rollers.
Different Raw Materials:
Different raw materials can cause great differences between the wholesale prices of products. At present, the common face rollers on the market mainly include the following materials:
- Stone
- Metal
- Plastic and resin.
In general, plastics and resins are the cheapest, and metals are roughly equal to stone. However, because the types of stones are very rich, the price of different stone face rollers varies greatly. The cheapest stone face rollers are even comparable to plastic, resin, etc., while the most expensive crystal face rollers are far more expensive than metal. To give you a reference price range:
- Plastics and resins: around $0.5/pc-$1.99/pc
- Metals: around $2.5/pc-$4.99/pc
- Stone: around $0.99$/pc-$6.99/pc
Shape:
The price difference between different materials is very large, and the price difference of different styles of face rollers of the same material is not small. The main factors that cause the price difference between different styles are:
- The amount of material used varies.
- The difference in the loss of raw materials.
- The labor cost is different due to the difficulty of production.
- involves patent issues.
The Location of the Supply Chain is Different:
A complete supply chain starts with the factory at the source and focuses on the final consumer. There are many parts: agents, distributors, retailers, etc. In general, for the same product, the fewer steps in the supply chain, the lower the final price. For example, the price you buy from the agent is expected to be about 20%-30% higher than the price you buy from the factory, and if you go through the step of the distributor, the price will increase by 20%-30%. Because the role of each step needs to be profitable.
Obviously, sourcing products directly from the factory is the best practice.
So in any case, the price difference between the same material and the same style will not be too big, usually not more than 30%. If the price is too low, you should first consider whether its quality is credible. In addition to fiddling with quality, some suppliers will consider making your money on shipping costs.
First, the supplier will give you a price that cannot be refused to attract customers, and then give you a high freight quotation in the final order quotation, so as to earn considerable income in freight. While the final price may not be much different from your normal price, this one can be unpleasant if you know the truth.
2. About the Quality Appraisal of the Face Roller.
Regarding the quality appraisal of facial rollers, there is no unified appraisal standard in the industry, and more are the internal appraisal standards of each company. Of course, different companies will have different judgments in terms of quality, but they are generally maintained under the same standard.
For example, our company’s requirements for quality are higher than most companies in the industry. Products with A+ quality from other companies may only be classified as A grade in our company. How to determine the quality of a face roller, see below.
First of all, we need to distinguish the material of the face roller. There isn’t a huge difference in the quality of face rollers in materials like resin, plastic, and stainless steel, so we won’t go into too much detail. What we mainly introduce today is the face roller made of stone.
polishing:
Polishing is one of the decisive factors in determining the quality of jade rollers. In addition to affecting factors such as aesthetics, it also affects the normal use of the facial roller. If there are no obvious pits on the surface of the roller, and the surface is smooth and without traces, this product has reached the standard of qualified product in terms of polishing. Of course, this needs to exclude some more special materials. Generally speaking, the higher the hardness of the material, the better the final polishing effect. If the material is soft, it is difficult to achieve a perfect polishing effect. For example, the polishing effect of crystal, obsidian and other rollers is much better than that of jade rollers. Therefore, the polishing effect between different products cannot be put together for comparison.
shape:
Different styles of rollers have their specified shape standards, if the error is greater than the standard range, it is not a qualified product. You can tell if it meets the standard in a simple way.
- First check whether the ball is complete. If there is a defect in a certain area of the ball, it does not meet the standard requirements.
- Secondly, whether the shape of the roller is regular. For example, whether the spherical roller is a perfect circle instead of an ellipse, whether the barrel-shaped roller is flat on one side, etc.
- Final, scroll is smooth or not. When the shape of the ball does not meet the standard, it is likely to cause the ball to not roll smoothly.
Through the above three methods, you can basically judge whether the scroll wheel meets the limited standard of the style.
color:
The color of the crystal wheel is an important reference indicator for quality. How to judge the color standard of jade roller. We can roughly analyze from the name of the stone. For example, rose quartz, if the proportion of pink in the scroll wheel is higher, the quality will be higher; if it is amethyst, it will be judged by the proportion of purple. Of course, this is only limited to the stones that can be analyzed from the name, and others, such as Tianhe Stone, etc. It’s hard to tell from the name what color it’s made of.
In addition to color, purity is also a particularly critical factor, especially in crystal materials. If a piece of rose quartz contains a lot of impurities, black spots. No matter how perfect the final product is in polish, shape, etc., it cannot be a high-quality product.
3. About How to Store Your Face Roller
You don’t need a special device to store your face roller. Usually you just need to keep them in a cool, dry area. Of course, the face rollers of different materials will be slightly different when they are saved.
Materials such as plastics and resins need to be stored in a cool, dry area away from open flames or heat sources. Because if the temperature is too high, the face roller of plastic, resin and other materials may be deformed, which affects the beauty and normal use of the face roller.
Jade, crystal and other materials need to be stored in a cool and dry area, and at the same time try to ensure that each face roller is stored in a separate space without friction with each other. The friction between crystal or jade rollers can easily form scratches on the surface, affecting the use and sales.
For stainless steel rollers or other metal rollers. There are not too many requirements for temperature, etc., store in a dry area, and be careful not to rub against hard objects. Because the metal roller is more prone to scratches than the crystal and other material rollers.
4. Crystal Roller Shipping Instructions
The shipping conditions of crystal rollers are not harsh. As a crystal material, there are not many requirements for moisture resistance, temperature, etc. The only thing to worry about is the bumping problem during transportation. However, usually when suppliers pack their goods, they use safety packaging to ensure that there is no direct friction and collision between each roller.
Which mode of transport is suitable for rollers? all! You can transport your roller tools by any means, air, sea or ground, as long as that means of transport gets you to your destination.
Currently, the two most commonly used modes of transport are air and sea.
Air Freight: Fastest shipping, highest price, highest security. It is suitable for orders with small quantities of products and urgent needs. It usually takes less than a week from shipment to destination.
Sea Freight: Longest shipping time and cheapest price. It is suitable for orders with large quantity of products and low demand. It usually takes about 20 days to a month from shipment to destination.
How to choose?
Decide according to your needs. If you have a small order and need to receive it in a short time, then air freight is the best option. If your orders are large and you don’t need to receive them in a short time, ocean shipping is the best option.
Of course, there are many more issues to consider. For example, if you have a paper gift box in your order, moisture resistance is a very important factor. At this time, air freight can better meet your needs than sea freight.
5. Face Roller Customization
Are roller customization requirements high? not tall. In fact, nearly 60% of the inquiries from customers we contacted want to customize rollers, and we can basically meet their needs. Before customizing the scroll wheel, you should consider the following factors:
- Customized requirements. What customization do you need. Is there a logo engraved on the product? Custom product packaging? Customize the shape of the wheel tool?
- Minimum order quantity. Obviously, every vendor has certain requirements for custom MOQs. The MOQ requirements corresponding to different customization requirements are also different. Among them, the requirements for custom logos are the lowest, generally not higher than 50pcs. The requirements for customized outer packaging and product styles are relatively high, generally above 500-1000.
- Price. Custom words usually cost extra. The cost of a custom logo is the lowest, generally $1.5/pc and below. Customizing the shape of the roller is the most expensive because it is equivalent to developing a new product. The price of custom outer packaging is in between, usually between $0.9/pc-$1.5/pc.
- Logo style. Try to ensure that the entire logo uses the same color, and the area is not too large or too complicated.
- Time. Engraving logos etc. can be done within a week. Custom outer packaging can usually be completed within two weeks, while custom product shapes, etc., can take a month or more.
