Default need selling points for chalk pads

I have the Rich Regals/Earth Elements chalk pad, and the colors are really gorgeous. But what are the UNIQUE uses for the chalk pads? Meaning, WHY would my customers want to buy these instead of classic or craft inks?
Thanks.

This isn't a main reason, but demonstrating what it does with the VersaMark made it very appealing to people at parties I've been to or hostess. I don't sell, but I'm in a hostess club. Emphasizing them as one big set didn't appeal to anyone at my parties, but they can be bought individually, so maybe place emphasis on them for upcoming holiday card creations and effects. Lots of luck!

The Chalk Pads are wonderful. Here are some of their best selling points:

*they are a combination of our Classic Ink and Craft Ink so they are archival quality with faster dryin time.
* they have a very muted, rich, chalky look to the ink when it is dried. This is a look you can't get with any other product.
* they ink is permanent if heat set so it is grea tfor scrapbooking and for projects such as dominos, and game pieces.
* they can be used as a large spectrum pad, or each individual colour can be removed and used individually.
* because of the shape of the individual pads they are great for "direct to paper" techniques.
* they are very easy to use to ink up large bold stamps because of the small handly under the pad, and because of the "texture" of the ink.
* for the price you get a great selection of colours from 2 different colour families, plus there are refills available for when they start to dry out.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Tonyaw! Great selling points for the Petal Point Chalks !
I sold the most when I demonstrated pulling out a few points, then apply color directly to the rubber stamp then stamp on paper. Worked great with the Petal Print set, flower sets, leaf sets,etc.

Oops! Cat, is there any chance that you meant "chalks" as in our collection of 48 pastels, that can also be purchased in smaller groups as refills? Those, I know, are used often with versamark. I just re-read your post, and I'm guessing that is what has happened here.
