Isopod cultures

[Small Pet Feeders]

I do agree that shorted is shorted, what I was referring to was the extremity and degree at which he was reacting made me feel like I kidnapped his mother lol. I just feel there is no need to insult as I'm a very reasonable guy and give extras or free stuff on the regular to our clients, but when I was doing Small Pet Feeders on my own there for the first 6 months of startup, it was frankly overwhelming to keep up with the demand single-handedly, and that led to my situation with Kevin unfortunately, whether he's an extreme personality or not that was my fault.

We now have a new SPF Team Member, Dan, who has been helping with the labor and packing end of the business, giving me a chance to pay more attention to the infrastructure, like the website. I would REALLY like to incorporate an accurate stocking system, it's just honestly very hard to do when working with bulk live stock, because you have die-off, escapees, over-counts, too many angles to guess just how many crickets are in that bin. However, if you have a system you could recommend, I would really be all ears. I do plan on regulating the stocks of the "isolated livestock" like pods, cultures, stuff of that nature very soon, and this thread will give me a bit more motivation to hurry it up.

I do appreciate your constructive criticism, and didn't mean to make light of the fact that I owe something, just was pointing out the degree of his response. Rest assured that despite his behavior, I'm sure Kevin and I will reach an amicable solution.

i don't know how to implement a stock system but if it were me i'd probably do something like this. If i had for example 10 springtail cultures ready for sale, i'd only list on the site that i had 5, that way if something happened i'd have backup. I'd make sure i always had a security stock on hand and never out too much at a time. Sell some, build stock, sell some, build stock.

Good luck with your business! i'm sure you guys will work it out hopefully

Customer service always comes first on my list when i look to deal with people. I usually buy all my supplies from Josh's because of the great service they have always provided me. They sent me the wrong type of heat mat once and next day ship the right one out to me and let me keep the wrong one they sent me. Online chat is always a bonus to have. Being able to talk to someone right then and there with your questions and get instant feedback is great. And they will give advice on anything from their products they sell to anything else you have questions about dealing with frogs

I don't want to further hijack this thread. I'll be PM'ing you Josh :-) Thanks for adding some neutrality to the matter, it's very conducive to finding common ground between two parties. Thank you.
