Spirit Box Product Mix Explained

Let’s talk about how products will work for your Spirit Box Enterprise...

Now is the time to begin finalizing the product mix for your Spirit Box Enterprise, so let’s layout how this is going to work.

Planning For Four Trays of Products

OMG it's empty!

Your Spirit Box is made up of 5 trays, each with 12 spirals (slots) for products. That's  quite of bit of inventory to fully stock your Spirit Box! (download our plan-o-gram to start sketching your ideas)

Time to fill the spirals. 

Initial Inventory Starter-Pack

Your first year Spirit Box program investment of $13,750 includes an initial inventory starter-pack made up of many different blank convenience items to help fill about half of your Spirit Box.  

Starter Pack Products

  • Earbuds  

  • iPhone Cables

  • Droid Cables

  • Flash Drives

  • Deodorant

  • 6-Port USB Desk Chargers

  • Bic Mechanical Pencils - 2pk

  • Bic Pens - 4pk assorted colors

The remaining and ongoing product mix is up to you to source. Popular Spirit Box inventory can include:

  • Consumables while every school has different regulations regarding what snacks can be sold through their Spirit Box, most receive approval for at least gum and mints. For Spirit Box teams that have more flexibility, you will find these can be your MOST PROFITABLE category. Some schools are selling over $10,000 PER MONTH in snacks and drinks.

  • Custom spirit wear like t-shirts, lanyards and beanies. Our sister company, Spirit Factory, can help your school with a huge variety of custom branded merchandise. www.Spirit-Factory.com

  • Convenience items (like what is found in your initial starter-pack) can be reorder from our strategic partner at www.SchoolStoreProducts.com 

  • School Supplies many Spirit Box teams partner with various departments at the school to stock supplies required for their classes. Reach out to your Art Department, Photography Department, Math Department and others to find out what supplies their students are required to bring to class.
