Changes to Regular Customer Discount.
"Don't Panic !
- prices haven't gone up"
As part of our Ecological Commitment, we have
made several changes to reduce energy and waste in all areas of
design, production, shipping and transportation. We will publish
our own Eco-policy soon and our blue print for a totally eco-friendly
production methodology have already been defined.
As a result, we have discontinued the Repeat
Customer Discount and now, everyone is entitled to the lower "Discount"
price with no time limit. Although this was an extremely popular
policy, it could be wasteful and an administrative nightmare.
The repeat order discount was based on the high
cost of advertising at £5 per bottle. We assumed New Customers
were coming through to our site from Google & Yahoo with repeat
customers returning via bookmarks. We felt Repeat Customers should
not have to pay for the advertising costs, so a discount was applied.
As our business has expanded, this cost has decreased significantly
& we can no longer justify New Customers paying for this margin.
(PLEASE still bookmark our site once you have clicked through from
Google or Yahoo !)
Although all New Customers were given a free
empty sprayer, many were not required & the higher price was
not justified to experienced customers, who simply wanted to purchase
a single 500 ml bottle. This was deemed unfair & new customers
can now choose exactly what they want.
We also found many repeat customers didn't require
the same "Information Sheet" and dispenser cups sent with
each order. We have avoided any price increases over the past four
years by making sure we operate in the most effective and ecologically
sound manner. Sending unwanted items increases postage and wastes
energy through unecessary transportation.
We
thank our many regular customers who are the backbone of our business.
Our Ordering policy is always to be helpful and
you can make any comments or suggestions by email by clicking through
to our contacts page.
| Change to our Policy are listed below. |
- Our original & popular 500 ml New
Customer pack, with free sprayer, has been enhanced and
is now the "Basic Starter Kit" It includes a FILLED
sprayer, dispenser cup and additional information, at the
same price.
|
- 500 ml range. All prices have
been reduced to the discount rate & available to ALL
customers. Administering New & Repeat customers is very
time consuming. We can use this time more effectively elsewhere.
|
- Only Starter kits will contain Information packs and dispenser
cups but cups will be available
as a FREE item which can be ordered with any product. (Max
1 per bottle). A simple information update will be sent
with other orders.
|
- Postage is now our major cost. Starter
Kits will always be sent 1st class or Special Delivery.
Other items will now be sent the most cost effective way
but an upgrade is available for next day delivery at a small
extra cost.
|
We hope you agree with these changes
but if you have any comments, do let us know. Our policies are always
flexible and we are always prepared to change them if required.
