Feedback on our surprise boxes.

Surprise boxes are have an extra special place in our heart, we have heard from many single mothers, and women who are missing out on surprises in their lives, who love these high value (cheap & cheerful) one off boxes. Born out of a phone-call from a customer who loved the idea of buying herself a box for her birthday from her children (single mum), and still getting an exciting surprise to look forward to, and then pamper her hard working self. We set out to create a box that had the bases covered...

• Beautiful lotion for your face
• Effective natural skincare
• Exfoliation for your body
• Organic essential oils
• Innovative New Zealand products that have been a hit in previous boxes

For us, one off boxes provide an excellent way to introduce more women to our service. The cost to promote these boxes is low to nothing, and I pack them myself, so the margins for wages, and advertising are not there. Plus the quantities we send means we can make sure there is a good mix of products to surprise and delight at a price that is really reasonable. 

While 53% of our one off shop purchases are from our existing subscriber base, the other 47% is from new users. We love being able to offer our customers an exciting and affordable gift option for their friends and family, and we also enjoy the opportunity to exceed expectations for the new users to our service.

Our monthly subscription boxes remain an absolute priority, the ongoing nature of these subscriptions means we can get really great products for our customers, and ensure a good mix and variety of brands. It also means we can be assured of ordering quantities, and plan ahead. The one off shop is a little more unpredictable, sometimes boxes sell out overnight, and some take a few weeks to move. One thing is for sure though, the demand for these surprise and lucky dip boxes remains high, and we think that could be down to word of mouth! 

In a recent customer survey to recipients of our one off mystery boxes, 38% thought the overall experience with our service and boxes was excellent, 44% said it was above average, and 18% thought it was good. As for value for money, 37% said they were extremely happy and their expectations were exceeded, while 57% of people had their expectations met and were 'happy customers'. We also asked about some key words that relate to the boxes, and the results are below.
