What is the meaning of this sentence?

Harold will make a lot of money selling the new perfumes in a boxed set.

Harold's remark does not indicate how much money will be made from the sale of the boxed sets. It could be assumed that Harold may make a lot of money because he will "move them quickly", but this is not the meaning of the sentence itself.

Harold will have to send the perfumes somewhere else because they will not sell.

"To move" in this sentence is not to be taken literally. Harold is talking about "selling" the perfumes, and not physically transporting them.

Harold will have the boxed sets delivered as soon as possible.

"To move" in this sentence is not to be taken literally. Harold is talking about "selling" the perfumes and not physically transporting them.

Harold will sell the new perfumes very quickly.

In this sentence, "units" refers to the boxed sets. So, when Harold says that he can "move them in no time", he is saying that he will be able to sell the perfumes quickly. "To move" a product means to sell it.

What does Kevin want Philip to do with the surplus bottles of Bordello Breeze?

Sell the surplus bottles to older clients.

Kevin does not write about selling perfumes to older "clients", but about selling an older "line" of perfumes.

Sell the surplus bottles by the end of the quarter.

Kevin writes that Philip must try to "move these units". A "unit" is a common business term for the individual elements which a factory or a company produces. In this case, the "units" are the bottles of Bordello Breeze. To "move a unit" simply means to sell the product, either to retail or to a wholesale distributor.

Create a marketing gimmick to help sell the surplus bottles.

Kevin asks Susie to help with a marketing campaign, not Philip. "A gimmick", specifically a "marketing gimmick" is a promotional device which incites or motivates people to buy something. The term generally has a negative connotation. For example, the offer of a free mobile phone is just a marketing gimmick.

Transfer the surplus bottles to a more secure warehouse.

There is no indication that Kevin is asking Philip to put the surplus perfumes in a new location.
