Oddly Enough

To Catalogue or Not?

2006-05-31T13:31:00.000+01:00

Following the publishing of our site on Sky Interactive, we've had quite a success with requests for our catalogue.

The cost of postage has been quite high and we don't know yet if the catalogue will generate more sales for us. I think it certainly will help people to remember us though!!

What do you think? I've noted a few questions below and it would be great if some of you Bloggers could let us know how you feel.

1.	In this day and age, with online shopping such a huge success, do you think a catalogue is still a practical way to market a company and to generate sales?
2.	Do you think a better way to produce a catalogue would be to set up a downloadable one on a website?
3.	Have a look at our website (link below). Do you think our products are cool or do we need to look for other items, like more gadgety stuff?
4.	Would you buy from a catalogue or a website or a High Street shop?
5.	If you were given the option of promotional discounts with a catalogue would that encourage you to buy from the catalogue?

We have added Ebooks to our Site

2006-05-09T09:10:00.000+01:00

Being avid Fantasy readers (and computer freaks!) what more could we ask for than to be able to read our fav books while sitting at the computer?

Once that happened it was only natural that we should think about adding Ebooks to our website. We searched the internet and found Terry Diesel Ebooks...and they had some of our favourites, so we have affiliated ourselves to them.

Most of the Ebooks purchased through Terry Diesel Ebooks come in 3 formats:

Microsoft Reader
ePalm Reader
Adobe Reader

The software for these readers is free.

What's your favourite read? Find them through our website at

Life may be short - but it needn't be dull!
