Nice site... but how do I purchase anything?

If it for informational purposes only, and you want people to buy from a bricks and mortar store... you should say that someplace.

Thanks vwebworld. Right now, I`m working locally in the San Luis Obispo area. My site serves as a kind of online catalog for clients to refer to when they are choosing a gift. Mine is a very personalized service. I like to meet with the client, understand their gifting needs, create gift ensembles, and then deliver the gift.

In the future, I`d like to open my market to a broader market. At that point, I will probably add a shopping cart function.

But your point is well-taken. I should probably re-emphasize giving me a call in the pages.

Thanks!

Elise

Hi Elise :-)
Right now we`re doing something similar, in that we don`t yet want a shopping cart. So our page is a "flyer." However, that doesn`t at all stop us from putting a line at the bottom to "email us if you`d like a quote on a banner," and our email link.

On your site I don`t like that you have three main images, none of which is a click-link. I hate that, where I go to a site that has a sparse design, focused on some graphics, and they don`t "do" anything. (Remember the movie "Big," with Tom Hanks? He was always asking, what does it do?)

As such, it`s a 1-page site with no customer journey and no call to action. I really like the colors, and the photos are very elegant and well done. It gives the impression of high-class gifts. By the way, that name is totally cool..! :-)

I`d have the pictures open a welcoming doorway to three areas of your online "store," where people can browse, look at what you have, and enjoy the site.

It`s simple and easy. I`d try to get some larger images to replace the smaller ones. It`s coming together nicely. Keep developing it.

Thanks Craig and Eventbramder.

Creating larger pictures is an excellent suggestion. My web guy has also created a blog and is working on creating a Zencart online shopping cart system. This is all in anticipation that I will grow beyond my local clients and want to appeal to a broader market.

I appreciate your comments and suggestions.
