Scents That Sell

Aug 1, 2012

Veneto Wholesale Inc. specializes in manufacturing luxury renditions of popular designer fragrances. For those in search of the Chanel impact without the price punch, Veneto Wholesale is a reliable source for discount aromatic products. From its warehouse in downtown Miami, the company keeps a steady finger on the pulse of fragrance trends and constantly seeks out new scents to add to its inventory. Within the next few months the company plans to bring in a new and edgy line, offering more options than your typical bottle, according to Daniel Elyakim, CEO. "We will be introducing a line that consists of two fragrances in one package, one meant to be worn in the day and the other for the evening. In addition, we will be bringing our own Smart Collection in new 3.4 ounce bottles. That launch is coming up very soon."

Some of Veneto's best sellers are renditions of newer designer fragrances, as opposed to the classics. For men, their interpretation of Theirry Mugler® A*Men, called King Sky, has been moving quickly, while women's fragrances are spread out between several different scents. For women, Elyakim suggests Seduction, a rendition of Euphoria by Calvin Klein?, and the entire Omerta line, which hosts a more naturalistic collection of jasmine, bourbon vanilla and lotus flower combinations.

Wholesale prices range from $1 to $10, with the suggested retail averaging $10 to $50. The minimum fragrance order varies, depending on the shipment destination. Within the continental U.S. the minimum order is $100, whereas international sellers must meet a $3,000 price point. If a customer reaches an order volume of 200 cases, regardless of location, bulk buyers' discounts are available.

Elyakim notes that most customers prefer to operate through the website, placing their orders online. For many, taking the online route allows access to their orders status at any time, from any place, with the help of a laptop or smartphone. The continuing growth of these technologies increases the demand for wholesalers to keep up the pace with their own sites. As a result, a seller as large as Veneto Wholesale Inc. must undergo frequent updates. "I think that because our site is easy to navigate and look through it has been a great success," says Elyakim. "The information is displayed in a bold, colorful and legible way, which makes it easy for customers to use. Having this website has proven to be a great asset to our company, because customers all over the world gain access to us. Placing orders with us couldn't be more straightforward." Having a dynamic online presence is more than a convenience for Veneto's customers, it is a malleable platform on which new products can be added, edited and advertised worldwide with minimal hassle. Customers visiting the site are immediately greeted by vibrant colors and an animated banner accompanied by the Veneto logo, all of which have clear visual impact on the viewer. While the site's navigation menus are simple, arranging product in a way that is inviting and easily understood requires revisions on a regular basis. Since the fragrance wholesaler prides itself on constantly adding to its inventory, the company aims to bring in new product every two to four weeks. With every new addition to the warehouse's inventory, pages dedicated to sales, gift sets and display packs are also adjusted. The Hot Deals page, for example, points out the most recent specials on the site and drives sales for those select items, requiring more attention than any other page on the site. In order to encourage international sales, the site also features a dropdown menu of languages, so that all text on www.ud2006.com can be immediately and accurately translated. This option renders the site more conducive to international sales than others that fail to take language barriers into consideration. It may be just another box to click, but it is one that helps Elyakim and his associates provide exceptional customer service.

Great customer service is what Veneto Wholesale does best, Elyakim stresses. "Once, one customer who orders huge bulk shipments from us on a regular basis needed an order shipped the same day," Elyakim recalls. "She needed the order in time for a show, so we got in contact with the shipper and made arrangements for her on short notice. We were able to accommodate her and she was very pleased." Elyakim attributes the company's ongoing success to excellent discount prices offered on a huge variety of great quality products to all customers. "And also to Web Wholesaler," he adds, "which is a good advertisement medium and has brought the company a lot of new clients. It's great for reaching out to vendors." Veneto Wholesale Inc. is determined to be the number one wholesaler of high caliber designer fragrances. By keeping in touch with customers' tastes and online trends, that rank is within reach.
