HoneyComm has several levels of support systems to give you guidance not only through technical and product aspects but also brand development and marketing. For technical inquiries, we have a 24/7 chat/ email option within the software to connect with our member success team. Additionally, for product and marketing-based inquiries; you will have a Customer Success Manager and a Community Manager to guide the program. Finally, for member collaboration and community-based support – we have an exclusive HIVE group for you.
The main focus of the education resources will be getting these products to market. This includes elements such as your store setup and how to properly establish a funnelling process in order to increase your cart value. Next, you will have guidance on marketing platforms that you can utilize – thinking outside of the main platform that everyone is fixated on (ahem, Facebook). Finally, you will cover aspects of design, what the look of your brand should be – triggering emotional alignment from your target consumers.
Not only can you fully brand the full catalog of supplements, beauty products and CBD on the product labels and your storefront, you can also brand external packages and all sorts of marketing inserts for your customers.
We provide guidance in the education resources on the elements you will want to focus on in the label. From there, we provide you and your designer with a template as well as template guidelines for the production of the label. If you’re not a pro, we encourage you to find your own designer or use one of ours! We also offer a WYSIWYG editor where you can design your label from existing templates or from scratch in REAL time. After a label is completed, you upload it directly into the HoneyComm software for manufacturing approval. We ensure the label is abiding by proper specifications prior to making it available in your store.
The health and wellness industry and furthermore consumable products are much more regulated. Therefore, we provide the appropriate guidance elements to ensure your business legitimacy. Depending on where you are planning to sell, the requirements will be slightly different – we will use the example of selling in the USA. You will need to consider a sales channel (Google Shopping, Facebook Shops, Facebook Marketplace, eBay, Instagram Shops, Shopify, Shopify Plus or Groovekart), LLC, EIN, Business Bank Account, and a Merchant Account/Payment Processor (Payment Cloud or whichever works best for your situation). From there, the focus will be on design and marketing.
We must consider that Supplements and Vitamins alone are a global $100+ Billion industry annually – before adding in the CBD and Cosmetics categories. With the strong current and future projected growth, you will have more than a fair opportunity to carve out your niche. For consideration, if every member of HoneyComm were to carve out even a small fraction of a percent of the market – each person would be making a significant amount of money.
This will be fully dependent on yourself, your work ethic, and potentially, your team. Some of the start-up elements and approvals can take a few days or few weeks and design timelines can be the same. With an established business in the industry, you could be up and running within 24 hours having the appropriate resources. For most first-time users starting up, you will want to give yourself 2 weeks to 1 month of preparation – having all business elements in order. If you feel stuck or overwhelmed, reach out, we have a sizeable team that can help you professionalize quickly.
In the product catalog, we provide generic product uses, however, we also encourage you to really pinpoint your target market and find specific product benefits for them. All ingredients and Certificates of Analysis are outlined, allowing you to continue the research and find unique positions in the market. From the manufacturer, we provide a dietary breakdown for you to utilize as well (Vegetarian, Vegan, Non-GMO, Keto, Paleo-friendly, etc.) giving you different angles to explore. Your label can also indicate USA Made, “Made in an FDA Registered Facility”, “GMP Certified”. As we provide a guideline and template, you will begin on track – finally, with the label approval process, we can assure your labels abide by regulatory standards.
Yes, it is a very quickly growing industry that will have huge opportunities now and in the coming years. Many regions still do not accept CBD but it is quickly being recognized for its benefits and opening up. Our fulfillment center will have restrictions on where these products will be sent. Although you should set your marketing and shipping zones accordingly, they will not send it to regions where it is still illegal. If you are a junior in the health and wellness eCommerce space, it may be advisable to first begin with supplements and vitamins – then grow into a CBD offering.
All products within our catalog have a Base Cost and Fulfillment Cost per item, shipping will be extra. Fulfillment cost includes the label spec adjustments, printing, and application, as well as packaging for shipment. We also outline the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price and potential markup. You have the benefit of having preferred pricing to millions of $ of our product whether you sell 1 unit or 100. There is no Minimum Order Quantity and you only pay for products when you’re selling!
Yes, we understand that the private labeling of supplements has been around for a while now, but how has it really evolved? With the platform, you do not have Minimum Order Quantities or the requirement of providing any of the labels and branding. Everything is printed on-demand, allowing you to interchange as many labels as you wish through the software and test market different groups without the need for additional investment. If you think you have seen this before… it’s not at this level of software automation. Complete order automation within the software – without having to have someone external to your business access sensitive information.
You can order sample units at any time. You can even order samples from the FREE explore plan! If you’d like to order samples of any product with your labels on them, simply add them to “My Basket”. This will give you the opportunity for additional marketing initiatives, such as lifestyle photography + test to see how awesome the product is & how quick the shipping is!
With HoneyComm, you always have options. We want to GROW with you. With the Premier Plan, you can create custom formulation opportunities. Custom formulations are excellent as the product will be unique to only you. That said, keep in mind custom formulations will have a Minimum Order Quantity associated with them – for the simple reason that the manufacturer will not be producing bottles one by one.
