I get questions all the time about what goes into a split, how you get the fragrances in the bottles, how much time I spend on this, etc., so I decided to take a few pics and show you guys what's involved: First - I start of by seeing if the sprayer will come apart from the bottle. If so, great, as this makes life much easier. Here's the Knize bottle:
After prying the metal collar off, this is what the sprayer looks like. As you can see, its pressed into the glass, thus making it almost impossible to remove without cracking the bottle.
So, since I can't get the bottle apart, I've got to spray the juice into each atomizer. For this split I had to make 24 separate atomizers. Not only do I have to spray each one, but then I have to wipe each one down with alcohol (spraying makes a tremendous mess), label each bottle, and tape the label and screw top (so it doesn't leak). Finished products:
Work waste:
Then I have to get them ready for mailing. Each one of these splits will go out in a padded mailer like so:
I have to copy and paste each email and address information into Paypal's USPS mailer. Then, I have to cut each label out so it fits on the mailer, and tape each side down so it doesn't come off. In the case of international shipments, I have to hand write each address down on the mailer, then go inside the post office and write out each customs form individually. That's pretty much the whole gist. If anybody has any other questions, let me know.
