Pam, Here is my impression of your store. I included suggestions and explanations. Hope you can benefit from them and like them. Banner /Avatar I agree your banner/avatar is simple and memorable for a biz card, but I don’t know what you are or what you are selling? The name of your store is interesting, but what is neat treats??? Dog treats? Candy store? Luxury store/high-end store? Somewhere in your banner and avatar you should include something that represent or explain what you are selling? Take advantage of this visual marketing. Some people don’t like to work their brains very often (lol) . Incorporate a product photo, bath tub, towel (you get the idea) or add a phrase (custom made natural bath products), you will probably come up with a better phrase because of your knowledge and expertise of your products. I like the colour combination it is very eye-catching, just add a little more to sustain a potential customer’s attention. Profile and Introduction Your first line is good, but try to follow it with more vivid descriptions. Add the various scents within your first paragraph because this is strong marketing strategy for you to gain interest. Tap into areas of feeling of using the product, the benefits – natural ingredients, for all types of skin, joy of bathing, in home spa experience, etc. And who would like these sensations-women, babies, children. Add something like it makes a great gift for baby showers, just because, birthday, etc. (Emphasize that you might not like, but someone you know will). Omit the shipping statement. It is a double edge sword-some people like to know the additional cost and some people see it as a turn off. Only state FREE SHIPPING in your profile when you do provide it. I like the customer satisfaction input – it demonstrate customer care and compassion. Caution: use this wisely, given that some products cannot be returned, who is responsible for the return shipping cost, and packaging of return products-some people do not take care in packaging – returned damage products depreciate in value. I personally prefer the no return policy unless it is for a loyal customer that you have a good seller/customer relationship. Also a good valuable resource is to have icraft admin assist you with your profile- they can condense it or add valuable suggestions. If you provide them a list of statements you want to convene to your potential customers. Profile sections are always difficult for me too – Who wants to know that? Isn’t that obvious? Nothing to personal on my profiles!! If you do use icraft admin – just let them know what is comfortable for you, and the strong benefits of your products. Remember for you – try buzz (popular) keywords ---natural ingredients, non allergic, etc. that relates to your industry. Emphasize custom orders are welcomed and that you should also include that statement in your individual product descriptions. For the individual product sections, use important tags, such as bath, cleanser, bath time, in home spa experience, natural ingredients, etc. These are very important because doing a replacement for bath products; I don’t think your Neat Treats name would be listed. Google is a blind replacement, so make sure you use general, simple words for your products so you have a chance to be seen. Add at least one dimensional photo to your products – shows height, width, etc. It is good that you include the weight of your products. As a customer, it is disappointing when you receive a product that is smaller than you expected. Overall your store was very nice to look at, so give other people a chance to see it. (lol) I am sorry to be so chatty. I didn’t know my brain would explode with all these comments. (lol) :oops: Good luck, Connie
