I got my first website sale today! An order for four of my bottles, so I'll be busy the next few days...

Sorry for telling you all like a giddy kid, just wanted to shout about it as I'm pretty excited! :D
 
Brilliant - you are allowed to be giddy with excitement. I had my first website order last month that actually came from someone that wasn't friends or family and I was bouncing off the walls :D

Make sure you make the best of it. Give amazing service, try to get referrals / testamonial etc from it.

Well done!!

Thank you all so much for the kind comments you've left for me - I really appreciate them.

Do you do bespoke bottles, where people can choose what they want inside the bottle?
Not yet, but watch this space!

I just tweeted a link to your site on Twitter, I hope you get an extra visitor or two.
Thanks - that's very kind of you. I'd do the same for you if I had a Twitter account, but I haven't got round to tweeting yet!

Would also consider getting your own boxes made for the cards - at the moment the nerves of steel bottle/ photo advertises someone elses site from the card box. Would also be good for in 6 months time (or if it is a present) when they have forgotten where they got it from so that others admiring someones purchase can see where to go and buy them

PS.... selecting colour.... colour for what?

Congratulations! It's a great feeling... I remember our first client. Like other have said, I danced around, much to the disgust of our teenage daughter.

Can I just offer a suggestion for a correction on your website. Both your 'Locked Up' and 'Nerves of Steel' products have text carried over from the Original...

Full, sealed deck in original cellophane
Cards visible through 'window' in box


You might want to remove it to avoid confusion.

All the best for your next sale.

Just checked out your site.
intrigue.

I think with the ship in the bottle concept, the ship goes in 'flat-packed' doesn't it then gets, sort of 'inflated,' (not the right term, I know), inside the bottle.
I can say that I am stumped with yours though.
False bottom, perhaps?

I know you probably will not tell us.:D
