How to Sell a Million Lobster Cakes Overnight: Start Early, Stay Late. Be Prepared to Stand and Deliver
In order to hit their goal of selling a million lobster cakes in one day (and night), they had to plan ahead.
Each order of 20 2-ounce cakes offered in their December QVC "Today's Special Value" (tsv), required the meat of three lobsters.
They began buying in September, hand formed and flash-froze the cakes in their state-of-the-art plant in Baltimore awaiting their special day.Which turned out to be a banner day.
Their "TSV" day began midnight, December2, and they were on QVC live in 8 minute bursts repeatedly for the ensuing 24 hour period and actually sold a total of 1,100,000 lobster cakes.
That's a lot of lobster.
$3,800,000. worth to be exact.Not that the work stopped there.
Once the sales day ? and night ? was over, they jumped into their car and raced back to the plant to get those orders out in time for Christmas delivery.
Which is no small item.
It required 275,000 pounds of dry ice, 55,000 styrofoam shipping...

I am a distributor for a greeting card company so I am a bit of a critic.However, Tricia was so kind and excited about her product both in the emails she sent me and on the phone. I allowed myself to review her product on a blank slate. She sent me a sample card with a 1 year membership card to "Send Out Cards". After a quick 15 minute "training" session with Tricia about how to send out cards, add people to my address book, and add additional stamps and cards to my membership card, I was ready to send out my first card.My son's Birthday is coming up so he was my obvious first choice.
I browsed through a number of cards and picked the one I thought would make him laugh. I also added a personal greeting to the left side of the card just...

(ContentDesk) September 10, 2004 -- When Craig Flitner realized the problems with resume/application/job order tracking he encountered while consulting with professional organizations across the country were universal, he was determined to find an integrated solution.
