Questions we are asked about MTL versus direct-lung style

What is the realistic wholesale margin on Element e-juice?

Most retailers work to a target of 47 to 65 percent at the counter, with the figure moving up when accessories are bundled. Margin per shelf metre is the better measure, because a fast-moving line earns more than a high-margin one that sits still.

What strength should a retailer stock first for Element e-juice?

Start with the middle strength in the range and add one step either side once you see what sells. Shops that open with a single strength almost always have to reorder within a fortnight, and the second order is usually the one that reveals the real demand curve.

How quickly can a repeat order of Element e-juice be dispatched?

In-stock repeat orders normally leave within 11 working days, and consolidated freight shortens the door-to-door time considerably on larger consignments. Planning the reorder point against the slowest leg rather than the fastest avoids the gaps that cost sales.

What is the minimum order for Element e-juice?

Mixed cases start at 20 units, which is deliberately low enough for a single shop to test demand. The discount steps begin after that, and the tier table is available on request before you commit to anything.
