vitally important to present your best image as a business. Whether this is
a purchase, a barter or a donation for some cause, how you appear as a
business is important to the future of your business.
1. USE NEW SHIPPING MATERIALS ONLY - Use new shipping materials for your
packages. Do not rely on re-used shipping materials that may contain
cigarette smell, or the smells/residues of other products. You want to
package they receive to look and smell clean.

boxes for priority mail.

2. SEND PROFESSIONAL PACKAGES - Package your products in a way that looks
professional. Cloth items should be clean and smell good. Wrap them in
tissue paper or poly bags for shipping. Paper items should be enclosed in
poly bags to prevent wrinkles and tears. Breakable items should have
protective shipping supplies surrounding them. Create business labels on
your computer for the boxes.

3. ADD CONTACT INFORMATION - Add your contact information to every package.
Make it easy for the customer to order again. Include a catalog, business
card, information sheet, magnet and other items related to your product.

coupon offer free shipping or a percent off if they order again with in 30
days. Make is a dated track-able code number so you can tell how many
customers are using it. The new scratch off stickers are awesome for this
purpose. Hide the code under the scratch off sticker to give an incentive to

the products. Ask permission to use these on your web site. Happy customer

friend or family member. Maybe include a "Share Package" that they can give
