    It's been a while since I've been able to do anything but lurk here, thanks to school. However, I have an upcoming "sales pitch" speech in my Communications course, and I've decided to pitch Trumpers SC. As these are overly price-conscious college kids, I'm trying to sell the longevity angle. So here's my question:
    HOW LONG WILL A FRESH POT OF TRUMPERS LAST, WITH DAILY USE?
    Guesses are fine, I'm just hoping to get as much data as possible.


    PS: I've only tried the sample size from the TSD store so far, but holy cow I love Trumper's Rose!:drool

    What I do know is that soap is cheaper and will last longer.

    Indeed! My next purchase will most likely be Trumpers rose soap. Then more TSD soap and an Arko stick. Then I'll probably try MWF. But I digress:D
    Since my assignment is a sales pitch speech to a class of college kids with no interest in the finer things in life,:rolleyes: I figured I'll have a more effective speech if I try to sell em on a cream, which takes marginally less effort and practice to whip up. Otherwise I'd be all about the soaps!

    Sounds cool. I hope you do well! I'll have to defer to a "cream" guy to fill you in on how long a tub will last, though. I'm all about the soaps, as well.

    I'd think a pot of Trumpers (big, 7 ounces) will last the average guy who shaves every day about 120 to 180 shaves, depending on how much is used per shave.

    It's pretty unusual to actually finish a whole tub, from what I've read, from other guys. I've never done it, but of course I used up a few cans of foam before I quit using it a couple of years ago.

    I would think that six months is a reasonable estimate. I would also sell it on the great scents used in them. I look forward to using my tub of T&H Rose cream. A great scented shaving cream / soap will help you start off your day in a positive way.

    Thanks! I'll definitely be working the scent side of things too... I just have the sample size from Joanna, but I'll be passing it around the room, with a powerpoint of some "lather porn" pics just to give them an idea of it's capabilities:happy088
    I just hope nobody pockets my sample!:rolleyes:

  10. I agree. 6 - 8 months, shaving every day would probably do it.
     
  11. Congratulations. Just saw this after I posted the one above. Looks like I was late to the party:o

    I really enjoy all of the Trumper's lines. I have rose and I especially like the coconut. I have two containers of Trumper Coconut- one is in the 75g tube. SHoot me a PM if you're interested in getting some...
