New Designs/Cart Features Coming Soon… [ August 18th, 2008 ] Posted in » Words and Then Some... by James

The holiday season is fast upon us and our visit to the CGTA trade show was very fruitful. We saw great new products that will definitely be available in our Christmas 2008 designs. We also try to make the user experience as easy as possible. A couple of months ago we added delivery time estimates to our existing real-time rate quotes from FedEx. This allowed visitors to see not only the cost of shipping but the estimated transit times as well.

We’re hoping soon to implement a ShipEstimator feature to our cart so that you will be able to see the cost of shipping on the shopping cart rather than after you log into your account or create an account.  Other great ideas are planned…but those will have to wait for another day.

A Baby Gift to Remember…

So many gifts these days are throwaways.  By throwaway, I mean the items in the basket are consummed or refuse.  The food is eaten, but the packaging and enhancements are tossed once the gift is ripped apart for it’s primary intention (e.g. chocolate for the tummy).  With baby baskets, it’s nice that a large percentage of these gifts contain items that are retained.  Keepsakes that can be cherished years later.  A rattle that sits on the bookshelf for display purposes - babies often get more than 1 so some can be stolen away for their remembrance value.  Another item that can kept away is plush animals.  A soft plush pig (Pretty in Pink baby gift basket) or a colourful plush puppy (Little Boy Blue baby basket) are two examples of designs that not only can provide immediate visual satisfaction but they can also provide lasting memories…if Mom can keep baby away from the pig and puppy!
