Matching Your Target Market – A Lesson From Mexican Entrepreneurs

How to reach your peeps is just about always on my mind – it comes with the territory of being a marketing therapist. So here I was, two days ago, lounging around on the public beach in Puerto Vallarta. And I ended up, no big surprise, watching the vendors who sell up and down the beach. It is a great case study of how to figure out what to sell to a specific target market.

In the space of two hours we were visited by quite a number of beach vendors. Here’s a list of the items we were offered:
Cooked skewered shrimp, topped off by one of the limes hooked onto a separate skewer.

Heavy blankets in various colors that could be used on the beach or as a rug at home.

Brightly colored large pitchers that looked like ceramic but were actually wood.

Toys and gum from a basket.

Tuba-tuba, which is a chilled coconut drink served into a cup from a huge hollowed out double gourd.

Lace shawls.

All sorts of jewelry – silver, shells, beaded.

Elaborately carved cold fresh fruit, your choice, from a head-balanced platter.

Music from a 3-group band, complete with voice and instruments (including a bass fiddle)

Music from a two-person steel band percussion group, a 4-foot long instrument that unfolded and sat on a table, complete with sound system (battery operated).

Sunglasses

Bracelets hand-woven with your name on it

Straw hats

Large silver and mother of pearl fish which are jointed throughout the body so that the fish “swim” when wiggled.

I’m not quite sure this is everything, but the list covers most of the vendors we saw drifting by.

OK, let’s say that your job is to be a beach vendor on a warm Mexican beach. Some of your potential customers will be sitting in chairs under palabas, some will be already sitting in restaurants along the beach. Your job is to sell as much as you can from what you are offering. Can you name the top two things to sell? Can you name the bottom two things to sell? Remember that your target market is beach goers, some of whom are foreign, some of whom are locals, all of whom are on the beach, and some of whom are eating or drinking in restaurants. What are your picks for the two best things to sell to this market, and the two worst things?

Keep in mind, too, that you have to carry what you sell, walking in the sand, up and down the beach for miles and hours a day.

My two picks for the worst? The brightly colored large pitchers, which look like ceramic but are made of wood. They are awkward to carry, the vendor can’t actually carry more than about 4 at a time, and who on the beach wants one of these pitchers right then? Even if a potential customer was not on the beach, the pitchers are too large to easily carry home if you are a foreigner, and more than likely the locals don’t even use them as they don’t hold liquid. I think the guy who chose to sell the pitchers needs a few marketing lessons!

My second choice for the worst to sell, although a close race, is the steel band percussion. The instrument was huge to carry (requiring both persons) up and down the sand, hard to set up, and had to be hauled along with a fold-out table and the battery-operated sound system. That’s a lot to set up and take down for just one song, even if you had good luck selling the music to a lot of people. Plus, many people besides the one person who paid for the music can hear it, so you aren’t exactly going to sell music to the next person, are you? And frankly, most beach goers are busy sleeping, reading, riding the waves, or walking up and down the beach…..they don’t really have hearing live music on their minds.

My two choices for the best things to sell? Straw hats, because lots of beachgoers get to the beach thinking they won’t need a hat. But when they get there, they realize they do! The hats are relatively light to carry (I saw one vendor with a stack of about 50 straw hats on his head). As I watched him sell to someone on the sand, I realized he also had an upsell! He took leather braided bands out of his pocket and offered to add one to the hat for just a few more pesos. Smart guy – beach goers need hats, and they didn’t wear him out to carry.

My second choice for the best thing to sell is the cold, fresh fruit. It both gives a beach person something to eat and quenches thirst. It’s colorful and appetizing, and very noticable since most of the fresh fruit vendors carry the trays on their heads. It’s not expensive, it’s healthy, and even the kids seemed to like it. It’s probably one of the easiest things to carry on the beach, and the tray actually gives the vendor a little shade as he walks.

The point to this is that there are many things to consider when you are deciding what and how to sell to your target market. You do have to consider the pound of flesh it takes out of you, the costs you have in obtaining the product, and, of course, what you believe your market will want.

This doesn’t apply to the beach vendors as much as it does to you, but one way to quit guessing what your market wants is to ask them! Use a brief survey, talk to a subset of your prospects now and then, keep your ear to the ground. You’ll be more apt to design something that is wanted and needed than if you just put something on your back and start walking.

Most wood carving tools are cutting tools.  Every cutting tool has at least one bevel.  This is the sloping surface coming off the edge.  But it’s more than jut a sloping surface.  It’s actually a cutting angle.  So the bevel supports a specific cutting angle that determines how the tool can be used.  Experienced carvers know about bevels and how they affect cutting efficiency. 

If you’re just starting out as a wood carver, and you’re going to purchase carving tools for the first time, here are some things you should know.

-  Some carving tools leave the manufacturer without a bevel.  This means that you’ll have to be the one to make the cutting angle, which determines the shape of the bevel.  Many experienced wood carvers prefer new tools this way because they want to put the cutting angles on themselves.  They don’t want to have to remake an edge. 

-  Non-beveled edges are only recommended for those wood carvers who already know how to sharpen knives or similar types of cutting tools.  Beveled edges are essentially wedges and every metal wedge is, in effect, a knife.  When you know how to sharpen knives, you can make the cutting angle (AKA the sharpening angle) just the way you want it.  You control the bevel exactly.

-  It’s pretty easy to find new carving tools with pre-set bevels already ground in by the manufacturer.  Nevertheless, the new carver must be aware that, even though the cutting angle was created by the tool maker, it may not be the correct size or shape that they want.  Don’t just assume that the bevel is correct.  Know your needs, i.e. your specific carving tasks, and get the right tools.  You shouldn’t rush this.   

The cutting angle of your carving tool, or the length of the bevel, determines the strength of the wood you can carve.  At its very basic, the greater the cutting angle, the steeper and shorter the bevel.  The greater angle means more cutting strength on the edge.  The stronger the edge, the harder the wood to be cut.  What does it all mean? 

-  If you’re going to cut soft woods, you’ll want a small cutting angle on your tool’s edge.  This is a very thin edge and makes for a very large bevel (a long backwards slope).

-  If you’re going to cut hard woods, you’ll want a large cutting angle on your tool’s edge.  This makes for a much thicker, slanted edge and a small bevel (short and steep).

Here is another important point to keep in mind.  The size of the cutting angle on your edge can determine how much control you’ll have when carving. 

-  If you’re using a carving tool with a small cutting angle and a large bevel, more of your hands can rest on the wood.  This provides better control and, therefore, better carving.  Unfortunately, your edge isn’t as strong as it could be. 

-  If you’re using a carving tool with a large cutting angle and a small bevel, less of your hands can rest on the wood.  This could make carving a bit clumsy because you’ve got much less control of your hands.  It’s a curious thing.  You’ve a strong edge that cuts fast but mistakes are easily made.

Because we’re talking about bevels, here are the three main types of bevels that can be found in wood carving:  straight (square) bevels, rounded bevels (convex) and hollow (concave) bevels. 

-  Straight bevels.  As the name sounds, these bevels have a straight square edge.  They provide the most efficient cutting and the greatest strength to the edge for its sharpness.  Many wood carvers prefer this type of bevel. 

-  Rounded bevels.  The profile of a rounded bevel is convex and looks the exact opposite of a hollow bevel.  More effort is needed to cut the wood because the wedge is normally thick.  Therefore, cutting angles are large. 

 -  Hollow bevels.  Hollow bevels are concave and look the exact opposite of a rounded bevel.  It’s a very unique shape but working with it isn’t very easy.   Oftentimes, the hollowed bevel will unknowingly ride up on the edge of a cut so you’ve got to watch every part of it all of the time.   

When you know the fundamentals of how cutting angles on beveled edges affect cutting efficiency, you’ll know so much about any cutting tool that you hold in your hand.  Simple mistakes can be avoided and you’d be well on your way to becoming a skilled wood carver.

If you want to order a special type of figurine such as an angel figurine or a fairy figurine, be sure to ask the supplier to display the models and list of your choice. It is also important to specify the size of your figurine before placing the purchase order. Images and pictures of figurines online are often not truly representative of the actual size of the figurines and may often appear larger than the actual dimensions.

Furthermore, some special figurines such as angel figurine may cost you more, as they can be custom made according to your desire. The modern porcelain angel figurine comes in various materials and shapes, so be sure to specify the material and other features that you wish your angel figurine or fairy figurine to have. Fairy figurines are also available in many models and dimensions. Another type of collectible figurine that many people love to collect is the pewter figurine of mythical creatures.

If you consider your figurine collection to be of great value, you should consider passing it on to your future generation as collectible figurines increase in values over time. You will be surprised to know that there is a science to collecting figurines and the more you become involved in the hobby of collecting figurines, the more you will want to learn about it.

Before starting your collection, visit specialty shops like wholesale figurine shops or ask a few friends or relatives who are experienced in collecting figurines for suggestions on how to get started and also on how to negotiate successfully with sellers of figurines

For this, we’ll call the original cost of the statue “x”.

Since the selling price of the statue is 35% more than the original cost, you’ll have an equation that looks like this:

x * 1.35 = $670

Then divide each side by 1.35 to isolate the “x”.

x = $670 / 1.35

x = $496.30

For centuries Eastern cultures have worshipped Kwan Yin as the Compassionate Saviouress of the East. Likened to the great stature of the Virgin Mary in the West, she is the Goddess of Compassion, a motherly figure thought to bestow children on the truly faithful, and to be there for anyone in need of love and sympathy.

All those who needlessly suffer are Kwan Yin’s children. She is all-loving, and the perfect embodiment of beauty, grace and enduring compassion.

All over the world, women have always prayed to the Great Mother for the healing of a sick child or to find solace from life’s troubles. Always She hears, and Her Presence consoles the grieving, cools the burning brow, relieves the pain. Kwan Yin means “She who hears the cries of sentient beings.”

Kwan Yin’s appeal is that she responds to the heartfelt needs of ordinary people. She is accessible to anyone, regardless of social status, and will come to the emotional rescue of anyone who calls upon her in a time of crisis. There are many ways to invoke Kwan Yin into one’s life. The traditional way is by chanting the mantra OM MANI PADME HUM.

It is further believed that to have a picture or statue of Kwan Yin in one’s home brings good luck and protection to the household.

In Her sanctuary, Kwan Yin awaits you. In Her hands she holds the vessel of nectar which She pours on the world’s suffering. The wheel of Her mantra, Om Mani Padme Hum, revolves infinitely, emanating light in all directions. Take the time to bow before Her and allow your heart to express its sincere wish. Allow Her subtle presence to reach out to you.

(NU) – A home featuring traditional wood crafts, folk art and hand-carved furniture exemplifies a unique style of beauty. Whether you proudly display family heirlooms or collectibles gathered throughout the years, the addition of wood as a classic backdrop throughout your home will set the stage for these historic treasures and enhance your home’s sense of warmth and style.

Here are some tips for adding wood decor to your home.

* Start with the entrance. An impressively detailed, hand-carved wood door will set the tone before anyone even takes a step into your home. A stately carved wood door informs those entering the home of your own personal style.

An elaborate wood entry system, like those available in the Jeld-Wen IWP Collection, features extraordinary details that emphasize the wood’s character. These doors are created by artisans who carefully craft each masterpiece to match and highlight a home’s architectural details.

* Include interior decorative wood pieces. From windows, doors and furniture to clocks and artwork, decorative pieces are available in the wood species and style of your choice. Many of these pieces are still being created by hand. Artisans utilize their skills to replicate the exquisite works of old-world craftsmen, as well as create new, original designs. Craftsmen construct each piece individually, often choosing and planing the lumber themselves to bring out the true beauty of the wood.

* Create your own style. Continue your wood theme throughout your home when selecting moulding, cabinetry and any additional woodwork. Using the same species all through your home creates a truly harmonious, classic feel. Or, use a blend of species by coordinating two or three different types of wood to create a varied, somewhat eclectic look.

From maple, pine and oak to mahogany and rosewood, these woods complement each other and promise an exotic design that will add interest and character to each room.

* Mix and match old with new. When decorating, match hand-carved wood items with factory-built accents, which are stylish yet economical. Handcrafted tables, cedar chests and armoires blend seamlessly with manufacturer-made wood picture frames, clocks and candlesticks. Mixing in your antique treasures will add that final touch, giving your home the individuality you desire and a proud display of your prized possessions.

Whether your home’s style is colonial, country or shaker, handcrafted elements instill a bit of style and tradition. Look for local craft fairs and galleries to find artisans in your area.
