Dallas, TX — Top natural intimates manufacturer Sliquid (www.sliquid.com) has begun offering more ways to stay connected, virtually, amid industry-wide disruptions in business due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Adult businesses across the globe are finding new ways to work together as the
day-to-day operations of many companies adjust to meet the new restraints of
the work landscape. An unfortunate reality of the nation-wide “stay at home”
mandates is that many brick and mortar stores, as well as distribution warehouse
facilities, have been forced to temporarily cease operations and redirected focus
to e-commerce sales and alternative methods of delivery. However, Sliquid is
finding the silver lining to the situation by ramping up their virtual product
education courses for their retail and distribution partners.
“Times are different, simply stated, and for a true ‘road warrior’ grounded 24/7 it has presented me with some necessary changes in my day-to-day to stay best connected to the retailers as well as our distribution partners, globally … and that’s okay,” says Michelle Marcus, VP of Sales and Merchandising for Sliquid. “In-store staff trainings are no longer the ’norm’, so this has become the time to take advantage of readily available conferencing technology platforms and virtually connect to the outside world, as we know it. Skype, Zoom, and Flock have become my newest BFFs, allowing Sliquid’s product education to continue to reach those that were scheduled for in-person training.”
These virtual meetings offer a great opportunity for stores to connect with Sliquid
about enhancing their merchandising efforts and increasing their Sliquid product
offerings. It is also an opportune time to collaborate on ideas that can
successfully strengthen e-commerce sales of the Sliquid product range, especially
as more and more customers are turning to these store’s websites to fulfill their
intimate shopping needs.
“In my position as the VP of Sales & Merchandising, it is just as important to stay
connected with my fellow ‘road warriors,’ so most of my mornings now begin by
hopping onto a FB Live ’sesh’ that many from our industry fam bam are doing on a
regular basis. This presents us with maintaining some level of sanity, whatever
that may mean at this point in time, along with the opportunity to learn more
about our industry. Both uplifting and interesting all the same, because what I am
watching unfold in front of my eyes is a creative wheel on a constant rotation
connecting ideas with brands and people that quite honestly was unlikely to occur
before this ’new norm’ came into place.”
Marcus adds a nugget of hope for the future by saying, “Our industry is one that is
strong and resilient, and we will reunite in the weeks or maybe months to come
with A LOT more to be thankful for…and for many of us that just might be an
endless supply of toilet paper!”
Sliquid is offering virtual product education training via numerous video and
telephone conferencing platforms. To reschedule a pending, in-person training,
or to inquire about setting one up for your team, please email the company
directly at michelle@sliquid.com.

Lubricant is a sex toy’s best friend. Women get the benefit of their sexual organs being self-lubricating, and while it isn’t always enough to use each and every toy without outside help, it is a serious benefit that us males don’t get to enjoy on the same level.
Nobody is out there producing enough pre-cum to stand in for lube, that’s for sure. If you actually are one of the genetic freaks capable of oodles of pre-cum, I’d love to shake your hand. After I’ve seen you wash it, of course.

Yes, lubricants are often recommended to women dealing with vaginal dryness, is often brought on by stress, medications, or the drop in estrogen that happens post-childbirth and just before menopause. But even if you don’t think you “need” lube, that doesn’t mean you you shouldn’t try it. You may be surprised at how the extra slipperiness makes you feel even friskier. “Use lube liberally in the vagina, on the vulva and vaginal opening as well as on the penis just prior to intercourse,” says Alyssa Dweck, MD, assistant clinical professor OB/GYN at Mount Sinai School of Medicine.

You’ve probably heard about Sliquid before. It seems to be every blogger’s favorite brand of lubricant. I’ve heard so many people raving about it that is has convinced me to purchase a bottle and see for myself. I must admit that I am not a fan of water-based lube (I prefer silicone). I have used a couple of other water-based lubricants in the past, which I hated, simply because they would either cause irritation and discomfort or dry out within a few minutes of use. However, I need water-based lube with most of my sex toys, so I had no other choice but to seek for one that I would like. I went for Sliquid natural H2O out of all their other options because it is the simplest one, and I was hoping that it would solve those issues. I have heard so many good things about it that the bar was set very high.
