A Little Goes a Long Way
Our body butter seems to be flying off the shelf and is truly our number 1 seller. It is what got us started, and is a mainstay in our daily sales and with any luck, it will continue. I guess the purpose of the article is that I wanted to highlight a key feature of the product. That being that a little bit goes a long way.
If you are a current customer of ours you know that our products are made from all-natural raw products. We work really hard at ensuring that we have the finest, ethically produced, organic ingredients and that we use the raw product. Our body butter, which is the base of all of our items, is made from raw unrefined butter, shea, cocoa, mango, etc. When we make it, we essentially build the recipe by heating up the raw butter using strictly controlled temperatures. Once all of the ingredients are at the right temperatures, we blend them thus creating the body butter.
Immediately following the blending process, the butter is ready to be jarred. We do this immediately and put it into the jars, small and large, hot. Unlike so many on the market, we don’t whip our body butter. Jarring the body butter while hot provides a very soft, but yet a very dense product. Providing our customers with an honest, full jar of body butter has been a signature of ours from the beginning. We certainly realize that whipping air into the body butter would provide us with a little more profit, but at what cost. Our integrity? Our honesty?
Certainly integrity and honesty are high on the list of our personal traits and of those that work with With Love & Co. Why would we not have the same attitude toward our products? The benefit of forgoing the whipping process is that our body butter goes a long way. Or as the sign in the picture states, “A little goes a long way”.
Come by one of our many farmer’s markets and test it out for yourself. Take a small pea-size amount from one of our sample jars (lavender, sugar bear, lemongrass, coconut, toasted vanilla, healing balm) you will agree. A little goes a long way at With Love & Co.
I was visiting my daughter in Summerlin over the last couple of weeks and we stopped at your store, which she has purchased your product in the past. I bought healing balm and magnesium balm on my first trip, then returned and bought several different body butters and body scrub. I have to say the healing balm was like an immediate fix for my dry, cracked heels…!! Also bought my daughter healing balm and my son some facial scrub. I LOVE your store and being that I am from the Chicago (Rockford) area, immediately asked if I could order on line. Was very happy to know that yes, I can !! I will definitely be ordering different products and having them shipped. We have a similar store in this area, but I think you are my new favorite “go to” store for this type of product. Thank you !
Joanne, thank you so much for the comment. We are very pleased that you have become part of the With Love & Co. family. While we would love to see you in the store, we will do everything possible to earn your business online as well. Customers are able to submit orders on the website, where we offer remote support (if necessary), and will take orders over the phone.
Hope to see you soon. s&t
