Hello Wonderful Person! Happy Saturday to all.
I wanted to give all of you an update about what has been happening at Jennifer Bradley Skincare & Cosmetics. We have undergone so many changes in the past few months, and I wanted to thank every single client for being patient with us as we have been doing our best to handle something that was so unexpected, and completely out of our control: supply chain issues.
We first began to experience these dilemmas at the beginning of this year, and we really thought that it was an isolated issue: that maybe it was just a manufacturer that was just not being prepared, so we went to another manufacturer to hear the same thing:
"Yes, we can make your product, but cannot seem to get the packaging to put your products into. You will have to provide the packaging. Oh, and it will be 12-14 weeks until we can get your orders made."
My heart sank. We were going to have to shut my doors and quit, because we literally did not have enough product to sell, and people were sick of waiting. Of course, I am not a quitter, I'm resilient, optimistic, and just knew that there just had to be a better way.
Then out of the blue another manufacturer contacted us saying they could do the impossible: get us great products, in containers in just a few weeks, which would completely turn everything around for the better. I took a huge chance, ordered the products we so desperately needed then waited and waited for them to arrive. They were not only four weeks late to get to us, they only delivered us two out of the 6 items we needed, had put money down on, etc. Oh, and they are keeping my deposits even though I want out of the business relationship with them.
To make a long story short, they also are going through the same issues, but they were saying anything to just steal my business from the best of the best manufacturers that I have been working with for years.
Because of all these issues, we are faced with closing our doors forever unless we can come up with enough money through our sales to buy our own containers for every single skincare product that we formulate with our manufacturers as well as with the incredible new foundation containers that our clients have been begging us to create for years.
Much of this has been a great thing! Our clients are loving the new packaging, and we are expanding upon our color collection with the foundations with a new manufacturer right now. The feedback from clients is that they are loving the direction we are going with! AND we have an incredible manufacturer that we work with here that is custom formulating Clearly Younger Moisturizer our, our Resurface Gel, they make our Time Freeze Max, our Best DNA with us, Roses and Rubies, and now we are working together to make everything even Better than EVER together as a team, but we need your help more than ever before to make this happen and keep Jennifer Bradley Skincare & Cosmetics alive.
We are extending some incredible deals this weekend, and we are sharing that we are liquidating our genuine opal collection for an unbelievable price to help us get the containers made, get our life changing products formulated as quickly as possible, and for us to get stability back to our company, so that we don't have to say goodbye to this incredible business that has changed the lives of thousands and thousands of people around the world for over 12 years.
