We did it.
00:01:08.686 --> 00:01:21.730

You're so welcome and happy to be here.
00:01:28.917 --> 00:01:31.962
We're thrilled to have you and I am having a little party in my panties right now.
00:01:31.962 --> 00:01:36.028
What is called the Lust from Pure, that kind of y'all are selling and marketing this.
00:01:36.028 --> 00:01:37.269
It's so yummy, I like it.
00:01:37.269 --> 00:01:38.852
Everybody likes to party in their panties.
00:01:40.112 --> 00:01:44.963
It's like a little sparkle in your panties, just a little, yeah, a little zhuzh.
00:01:44.963 --> 00:01:46.489
Give it a little wake-up call when you need it.
00:01:47.030 --> 00:01:47.510
Oh, damn yeah.
00:01:47.700 --> 00:01:49.768
It's funny you say wake-up call because that's what I did this morning.
00:01:49.768 --> 00:01:51.847
I totally went on to wake up this morning.
00:01:51.847 --> 00:01:55.881
I was like, all right, let's go, let's do this, not as bad.
00:01:55.960 --> 00:01:58.224
For those of you who don't know what we're talking about.
00:01:58.224 --> 00:02:02.870
There's this little something called Woman Lust, and I use the Intense.
00:02:02.870 --> 00:02:13.927
It's like a vibrating orgasm gel for your clitoris, and it's made in Germany by the lovely folks at Pure, who I think you all heard me say this a million times I love their body glide, I love their lubes.
00:02:13.927 --> 00:02:15.461
So, yeah, thank you, kim.
00:02:15.461 --> 00:02:16.563
Thanks for letting us try this out.
00:02:16.563 --> 00:02:17.064
It's really nice.
00:02:18.068 --> 00:02:20.693
You are very welcome and I'm glad that you're enjoying it.
00:02:20.693 --> 00:02:23.304
And what a way to start a Sunday with a wake up call.
00:02:23.372 --> 00:02:25.756
Absolutely enjoying it.
00:02:25.756 --> 00:02:27.459
And what a way to start a Sunday with a wake up call.
00:02:27.459 --> 00:02:30.162
Heathens, all of you.
00:02:30.162 --> 00:02:33.300
Kim, tell us a little bit about you, how long you've been in the sex toy industry, what you're up to right now all that kind of fun stuff.
00:02:34.379 --> 00:02:42.466
So I have been in the sex toy industry for 12 years and it's not something that you wake up one day and be like, hey, I want to go work in the sex toy industry.
00:02:42.466 --> 00:02:48.225
Right, I was recruited and didn't really have any idea what I was getting into.
00:02:48.225 --> 00:02:54.765
What I discovered along the way is it is just kind of like widgets.
00:02:54.765 --> 00:03:01.104
You know, when you sell one thing, you sell another thing different industries and it's a.
00:03:01.104 --> 00:03:08.342
It's a beautiful thing and it's been fun because I've met an amazing group of people that it's like family.
00:03:08.342 --> 00:03:15.046
It's like, yes, it's work, but it's also spending time with people that I absolutely love, and you know what they say.
00:03:15.046 --> 00:03:21.131
When you love what you do every day, it's never really a job, it's really truly a passion, and I'm blessed to be part of it.
00:03:22.623 --> 00:03:26.212
So Kim, when you mentioned that you were recruited.
00:03:26.212 --> 00:03:29.987
How does one get recruited into the sex toy industry?
00:03:31.131 --> 00:04:00.443
Funny thing is that in a past career that I had, I worked for a kind of a home decorating rep group and that somebody that I worked with came and worked for Love Honey or, at the time, standard Innovation, and she recruited me and she gave me a phone call and I still remember to this day I was serving at Target, checking out, and she called me and she said hey, would you be interested in a job?
00:04:00.443 --> 00:04:08.344
And I said to her I don't think I could stand up in front of a group of people and say the word clitoris without completely blushing.
00:04:08.344 --> 00:04:13.925
And she said, kim, she's like I think you are judging and you're missing a great opportunity.
00:04:13.925 --> 00:04:21.329
So we asked that, I asked just the common interview, and if you ever feel uncomfortable then you can bow out.
00:04:21.329 --> 00:04:22.812
And that's what happened.
00:04:24.341 --> 00:04:25.706
Just out there slinging dildos.
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:36.803
Slinging dildos, yeah, and so obviously I started and I went and I trained, and the next week I went to a show and the rest is history.
00:04:38.069 --> 00:04:57.750
Yes, and I got to meet Kim at one of the distributors and one of the distributors I still use called El Dorado in Colorado, and at the time they had these boot camps where they would have some they would invite I don't know who, how they decided who to invite, but we would go out there and then Kim and all kinds of other manufacturers were there to talk about their products, so we knew how to sell it.
00:04:59.139 --> 00:05:06.913
That's exactly how we met, and you made a lasting impression on me at that time, and that's why we have remained in contact over the years.
00:05:11.019 --> 00:05:11.100
Cool.
00:05:11.100 --> 00:05:11.480
Thanks, kim.
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:11.942
That's awesome.
00:05:11.942 --> 00:05:15.771
So, yeah, I love all of your products so far everything.
00:05:15.771 --> 00:05:20.891
But back in the day, I did not love the original WeVibe because it just did not work for my body.
00:05:20.891 --> 00:05:31.973
But I love that your company's always innovating and always creating new versions and upgrading them and, yes, for me, for my body, it works so much better for me now.
00:05:31.973 --> 00:05:43.132
But, um, I want to start by saying how, the first time I ever tried a womanizer product yeah, it was in 2014, and I'm pretty sure molly said you have to try this.
00:05:43.132 --> 00:05:43.855
Molly from Holiday.
00:05:44.216 --> 00:05:49.786
Yeah, of course she did so she sent me one and I was like whatever, this is going to be more hype about another sex toy.
00:05:49.786 --> 00:05:50.548
You know, blah, blah, blah.
00:05:50.548 --> 00:05:54.069
Another version of the rabbit, another version of the whatever, another bullet.
00:05:54.069 --> 00:06:07.824
And then I took it home and I had this plan I lit some candles, I had like a good show movie on, I got all situated in my chair, I got tucked in.
00:06:07.824 --> 00:06:08.646
Let me try this now.
00:06:08.646 --> 00:06:09.769
That was like put it on bam.
00:06:09.769 --> 00:06:10.851
I was like whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:06:10.851 --> 00:06:11.374
Hang on.
00:06:11.374 --> 00:06:22.468
Now I didn't know what to expect because the womanizer the original one I tried had that sort of larger tip and it just suctioned onto my clitoris and then it vibrated at the same time and we'll go hey, y'all, this isall.
00:06:22.468 --> 00:06:25.132
This is not hype, this is not hype at all.
00:06:25.132 --> 00:06:26.920
Do you remember the first time you tried?
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:48.911
one, kim, I do, and I actually did not have the opportunity to use one of the original womanizers because when our companies merged together, we were launching the new premium, which would have been the original premium one, and, yeah, I had a very similar experience to what you just described exactly it was just like what.
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:52.384
And now I don't even like a toy without the suction arm.
00:06:52.384 --> 00:06:54.526
To be honest, I really want the suction all the time.
00:06:55.661 --> 00:06:58.610
It was a game changer in the industry when it came out Completely completely.
00:06:59.841 --> 00:07:01.819
I got all my employees on, all my friends on I go.
00:07:01.819 --> 00:07:03.663
You guys, I know you hear me talk about this shit all the time.
00:07:03.663 --> 00:07:08.471
This is like other world, next level epic.
00:07:09.553 --> 00:07:25.418
Okay, crystal, I remember at the time I was at an industry show, working for WeVibe, which quite honestly, was kind of all the buzz and the rage, and then Womanizer came out and I remember being like agreeing with Envy because everybody was talking about the Womanizer.
00:07:25.418 --> 00:07:28.930
And and I remember being like agreeing with Envy because everybody was talking about the Womanizer and I was like, but wait, what about us?
00:07:28.930 --> 00:07:33.190
So it's funny how the world's collided and now I get to sell both of those great brands.
00:07:33.331 --> 00:07:41.543
I'm curious how many different organizations or companies are under the umbrella of Love Honey, Because we've talked about WeVibe, we've talked about Womanizer.
00:07:41.543 --> 00:07:49.762
I think some of our folks may be curious of just like what does all this entail?
00:07:49.783 --> 00:07:51.752
It's a great question, and sometimes I actually have to count that because there are so many.
00:07:51.752 --> 00:07:56.567
It's like they were gremlins and all of a sudden they got water or light on them I can't remember which one and then they exploded, but it's.
00:07:56.567 --> 00:08:03.572
The main ones are Revive, which is going to be known for innovative shapes and deep, rumbly vibrations.
00:08:03.572 --> 00:08:06.761
We've got Womanizer, which is going to be pleasure air.
00:08:06.761 --> 00:08:13.781
We've got Pure, which Crystal mentioned, which is the amazing lube and clitoral stimulant from Germany.
00:08:14.283 --> 00:08:31.050
And then we've got Rump, which is going to be a little bit more of a I would say like a young kind of more of an entry-level price point fun, bright, beboppy, looks like the Gap t-shirts walls of t-shirts that I used to fold in the 90s on a wall in a store.
00:08:31.050 --> 00:08:54.153
And then we also have Arc Wave, which is a penis-centric line and kind of takes the technologies from both WeBite and Womanizers and rolls them into products that are great for penis owners, and right now there's not a lot happening in that brand so far, but this year is a big arc wave year, so I'm really excited for folks who have penises to be able to explore some really great products.
00:08:54.153 --> 00:08:58.653
And then we also have Happy Rabbit and Fifty Shades of Grey as well.
00:08:58.653 --> 00:09:00.761
Which Fifty Shades of Grey?
00:09:00.761 --> 00:09:02.688
It's never going away.
00:09:02.688 --> 00:09:08.530
It made an impact in the kiddos and the people who watched the movies and read the books.
00:09:08.530 --> 00:09:09.874
They're into it.
00:09:10.860 --> 00:09:13.289
I've seen those starter packs of the Fifty Shades of Grey.
00:09:13.289 --> 00:09:17.451
It's a great way to introduce somebody to BDSM-type toys.
00:09:18.845 --> 00:09:20.235
A soft way to wade in.
00:09:20.557 --> 00:09:32.253
Yeah, there was a lot of division in the industry and when the first 50 Shades of Gray stuff came out because of the consent stuff and it's really for vanilla people to kind of learn.
00:09:32.253 --> 00:09:37.951
But also I kept saying I understand y'all that I know there's elitism in the BDSM world.
00:09:37.951 --> 00:09:38.961
That's not how you do it.
00:09:38.961 --> 00:09:46.355
Here's the blah, blah, blah, all the housewives quotes and air quotes that I know my friends who used to hate sex.
00:09:46.355 --> 00:09:48.485
They're like oh my God, this book.
00:09:48.485 --> 00:09:49.649
I highlighted every page.
00:09:49.649 --> 00:09:52.504
I make my husband read it to me and they're like having sex again.
00:09:52.504 --> 00:09:53.245
So I'm like you know what?
00:09:53.245 --> 00:09:55.159
It's all good, let's let them enjoy it.
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:56.923
Don't be so snobby.
00:09:56.943 --> 00:10:09.302
I agree, those of us who work in this industry can be A slightly judgmental and B snobby, get it.
00:10:09.341 --> 00:10:10.384
I'm like I'm a sex toy snob.
00:10:10.384 --> 00:10:11.847
Yeah, I consider myself an aficionado.
00:10:11.847 --> 00:10:12.669
I get a little.
00:10:12.669 --> 00:10:16.798
You know I'm too good for that it's a higher taste level.
00:10:16.839 --> 00:10:19.625
I would like to say yeah, I like that.
00:10:19.686 --> 00:10:20.187
That's how we.
00:10:20.187 --> 00:10:25.544
That's how we kind of were at fat con last year with certain people who were using the rabbit.
00:10:25.544 --> 00:10:30.014
The rest of us were like, oh honey, it's so cute.
00:10:30.014 --> 00:10:31.863
Yeah, bless your heart.
00:10:33.667 --> 00:10:40.288
Yeah so ladies, where would you like to start with these toys that, kim, let us try out?
00:10:40.288 --> 00:10:41.644
Have you all have both of you, did you?
00:10:41.644 --> 00:10:42.923
Both of you try the little?
00:10:42.923 --> 00:10:46.065
I know Ashley and I are having a party in our panties.
00:10:46.065 --> 00:10:46.385
What about you?
00:10:46.385 --> 00:10:46.647
Murph?
00:10:46.647 --> 00:10:47.750
Party in the panties.
00:10:47.830 --> 00:11:06.432
Yes, okay, yeah so magic ingredient in that is a little plant from Brazil called the Spilanthes acmilla, which its common name is vibrating daisy or electric daisy, and, if you like, google the history of it.
00:11:06.432 --> 00:11:16.433
Obviously indigenous folks in that area have been using that plant for things like tooth pain and injuries for many, many years.
00:11:16.433 --> 00:11:31.611
And so that's the Lampus Agmila got added to this fabulous little gel and you put it on your body and it feels like champagne bubbles or sparkles and really enhances the blood flow and wakes everything up, which I love.
00:11:31.611 --> 00:11:36.051
It can last for about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on your body.
00:11:36.051 --> 00:11:39.509
You can always reapply if you really want to enhance it.
00:11:39.509 --> 00:11:43.208
Add a little water to it like a little squirt, squirt and you're going to be like oh hello.
00:11:44.520 --> 00:11:48.951
But yeah, it's a great, great product and if you put it in your mouth it's going to create saliva.
00:11:48.951 --> 00:11:55.472
Yeah, you can put it on your nipples and the regular Lust has a little bit of essence added to it.
00:11:55.472 --> 00:11:58.043
That's got a little bit of a berry taste.
00:11:58.043 --> 00:12:10.630
The Intense has got a little bit of a citrus taste and I like to tell people the regular level of lust is the scale of one to 10, about a five to a six the intense crystal that you're rocking.
00:12:10.630 --> 00:12:12.602
That's a 10.5 to an 11.
00:12:12.602 --> 00:12:19.923
So that paired with any sort of a clitoral toy like you want to like, zhuzh up your play with your womanizer.
00:12:20.625 --> 00:12:28.303
Zhuzh up your toy, your play with your moxie from WeVibe zoos up your toy at your play with your moxie from we vibe.
00:12:28.303 --> 00:12:28.806
Yeah, I made that mistake.
00:12:28.806 --> 00:12:30.331
I tried, I used it right off the bat.
00:12:30.331 --> 00:12:50.874
I was like I was gonna let's just go level 20, so I so I just tried the intense because I'm like, how intense can it really be well, actually were you deep threading the gel I use the intense, just, you know, for my own little playtime.
00:12:51.375 --> 00:12:59.731
And then I used what I'm now affectionately calling the finisher, um, which which was the one that you sent us.
00:12:59.731 --> 00:13:03.703
I was the um murph, do you have it that way?
00:13:03.703 --> 00:13:09.500
The blend, yeah, so the finisher, because that's a street fighter.
00:13:09.500 --> 00:13:20.708
Yeah, because I put that on and I was like, oh, my god, I'm gonna need it.
00:13:20.708 --> 00:13:22.352
I need a cigarette, I don't even smoke.
00:13:22.352 --> 00:13:23.261
You need to need a cigarette.
00:13:23.682 --> 00:13:24.283
I don't even smoke.
00:13:24.283 --> 00:13:25.706
You need to order a pizza too.
00:13:26.389 --> 00:13:27.250
Yeah.
00:13:27.490 --> 00:13:28.232
I was like I don't know.
00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:31.169
I just burned like 3,000 calories in two seconds.
00:13:31.169 --> 00:13:33.325
I love that.
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:36.730
Great womanizer experience Bam.
00:13:36.730 --> 00:13:50.971
I actually that was more intense for me, like that was okay, did you find like for me, with the first time I used the womanizer, I had to let myself have like about a half an hour of recovery time.
00:13:50.971 --> 00:13:57.532
Then I was able to since I knew it, I was able to not just go instantly and I was able to kind of step myself up a little bit.
00:13:57.532 --> 00:13:58.500
Then I was when I was ready.
00:13:58.500 --> 00:14:05.990
Then I let it, let it slide pacing is always yeah, I have a question for you.
00:14:06.610 --> 00:14:18.582
So we we were so fortunate last season of our podcast that you sent us a variety of different sex toys to try, and then this season, obviously, you've sent us a whole new series of sex toys to try.
00:14:18.582 --> 00:14:33.009
Um, so in the last you sent us this one, which Ashley called the USS Enterprise, as we think it looks, yeah yeah, exactly, it looks like the Enterprise it does.
00:14:33.880 --> 00:14:39.087
And then this season you sent us this one, and so they're very similar.
00:14:39.087 --> 00:14:46.643
I'm curious is this one, the blend, now replacing this one, or are they two?
00:14:46.643 --> 00:14:49.572
Okay, they're both going to be a different series.
00:14:50.379 --> 00:14:51.687
They're going to be a different series.
00:14:51.687 --> 00:14:59.889
Basically, what you've got is we've got a few people that the USS Enterprise intimidates because of the size of this internal arm.
00:14:59.889 --> 00:15:05.131
Also, sometimes people don't necessarily like the of the bulk of the head on this.
00:15:05.131 --> 00:15:15.611
So we made this slightly smaller, obviously, and it looks like it's got a shorter internal arm, but if you actually stretch it out it's about the same length, but it's much smaller.
00:15:15.611 --> 00:15:23.833
And you've got a slightly smaller kind of a tip on the end which isn't as intimidating to people.
00:15:23.833 --> 00:15:26.808
Also, power on the motor on this one.
00:15:26.808 --> 00:15:34.052
This has got a tango motor inside of it which is, like, you know, kick the tires, light the fires, let's go, which we know.
00:15:34.052 --> 00:15:37.147
Some people want a slightly, you know, less intense experience.
00:15:37.147 --> 00:15:44.869
So slightly less powerful motor in here and then not quite as many options in terms of vibration levels and intensity levels, but it's going to get the job done.
00:15:44.869 --> 00:15:48.355
I really like the finisher analogy.
00:15:48.355 --> 00:15:48.855
It's really good.
00:15:48.855 --> 00:15:54.086
So this is also this has also been a finisher too.
00:15:54.287 --> 00:15:57.813
That one was my favorite before and now the blend now finisher is my.
00:15:57.813 --> 00:16:00.024
I will say the USS.
00:16:00.024 --> 00:16:08.653
Orgasm is much easier with a partner because of like for for some of us with shorter arms and we've got like the bigger tummy, it's a lot easier to with a partner because, like for for some of us with shorter arms and we've got like the bigger tummy, it's a lot easier to have a partner.
00:16:08.653 --> 00:16:13.447
Help put it in the blend slash finisher I could use myself without any help.
00:16:13.947 --> 00:16:19.923
So like okay, I tell people it's almost like a little joystick, it's like a like.
00:16:19.923 --> 00:16:24.291
You're sitting playing playing video games, but you're playing body games.
00:16:24.672 --> 00:16:25.653
I love the rumble.
00:16:25.653 --> 00:16:28.028
Just give me all rumble and suction.
00:16:28.028 --> 00:16:35.051
Both together is even better, but I think these are going to be definitely high number top three, for sure for me.
00:16:35.051 --> 00:16:37.583
Yay, what do you two think?
00:16:37.583 --> 00:16:38.668
Yeah, oh yeah.
00:16:39.659 --> 00:16:52.615
I mean it was almost instantaneous with both of them, but especially with the blend, because I think that scoop really, like, really hit my G spot in a way that a lot of the other toys haven't.
00:16:52.615 --> 00:16:57.871
So having that section and the real big swoop made a big difference.
00:16:58.980 --> 00:16:59.422
The curve on.
00:16:59.422 --> 00:17:02.068
This is ideal for exactly what you said.
00:17:02.068 --> 00:17:05.146
Hit my G spot For that blended orgasm.
00:17:06.019 --> 00:17:08.230
Yeah, I mean it's the right size too.
00:17:08.230 --> 00:17:10.239
I mean for some of us, right?
00:17:10.239 --> 00:17:18.605
I mean I have a short vaginal canal, so for me it hits exactly where I need it to, which is amazing, because I don't find that very often.
00:17:18.605 --> 00:17:22.313
But that one is now my top favorite.
00:17:22.313 --> 00:17:25.009
And then USS Orgasm, and then we go from there.
00:17:26.582 --> 00:17:38.547
I love the ranking, and so there is something that I was not able to send to you all yet that will be launching, actually, in a few short weeks, beginning of March, so I'll be able to get you some at the time.
00:17:38.547 --> 00:17:44.602
And again, it's going to be a blend between vibration and orgasm, and it's unlike anything else that we have out there.
00:17:44.602 --> 00:17:49.146
I have a feeling we solve what you're telling me you're probably going to be fans.
00:17:49.627 --> 00:17:50.949
You are such a tease.
00:17:51.609 --> 00:17:53.491
I love it, I love it.
00:17:53.491 --> 00:17:56.516
My birthday is in March, so this sounds like a great birthday to me.
00:18:03.059 --> 00:18:03.320
Awesome, yeah.
00:18:03.320 --> 00:18:03.762
So I'm so curious, kim.
00:18:03.762 --> 00:18:04.909
How do they decide what's the next design going to be?
00:18:04.909 --> 00:18:05.471
What are they going to do?
00:18:05.471 --> 00:18:05.893
Who do they talk to?
00:18:05.893 --> 00:18:07.760
Do they talk to any fat people Like how do they know what's?
00:18:07.760 --> 00:18:08.182
Where do they?
00:18:08.182 --> 00:18:08.763
What do they want to?
00:18:08.763 --> 00:18:10.088
How do they come up with these ideas?
00:18:10.740 --> 00:18:25.919
So there's been a couple of different processes over the years and we're constantly refining it, but a lot of it is a lot of version one to version two and beyond has to do with feedback that we get from awesome folks like you in the field.
00:18:25.919 --> 00:18:33.561
Anytime we get feedback at the store level, we're at an event and somebody's like, well, this is great, but maybe it should do this.
00:18:33.561 --> 00:18:48.768
That information does get shared up along the chain and if my team is hearing it two or three times a month, that means that we figure that for every time we hear it there's probably already been seven people that have already mentioned it.
00:18:48.768 --> 00:18:51.602
So it kind of multiplies.
00:18:51.602 --> 00:19:10.131
We take that information and we share it on a board that we have within the company and then our product development team and our quality team takes that information and assesses it and makes changes accordingly from old versions, previous versions, to newer versions For totally brand new ideas.
00:19:10.171 --> 00:19:12.521
Again, same process is being followed.
00:19:12.541 --> 00:19:15.249
We're kind of looking at trends that we're hearing about.
00:19:15.249 --> 00:19:19.887
Questions are like, hey, it'd be great if you took this shape and put this motor in it.
00:19:19.887 --> 00:19:23.604
So we kind of take that and again we put that information on the board.
00:19:23.604 --> 00:19:51.933
And then there is, our product development team works with a couple of people on the business development sales team and kind of spins and kind of weighs and evaluates and we do some market research and then that's how the decision gets made in terms of we take a look at, like, the impact of the category in the marketplace, how much the market share we think we can grab by going into that, and then we decide whether it is a value to add to the collection or not.
00:19:51.933 --> 00:20:08.647
And then it either gets tabled or we decide to move forward with it right away, or we decide to move forward with it but we slot it into our roadmap and it takes a good solid year, year and a half, for something to go from the beginning idea to we're actually able to launch it.
00:20:08.647 --> 00:20:11.721
It's not a quick process Two quick things.
00:20:12.545 --> 00:20:15.193
Sell through when you get a lot of sales.
00:20:15.193 --> 00:20:17.079
That's a big deciding factor, right?
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:18.682
Yes, absolutely.
00:20:19.182 --> 00:20:31.451
If we make something and it doesn't take off on the shelf and our partners have a hard time selling it, we don't necessarily kill it right away.
