I accept the sad truth. I really know very little about blogging, Internet and stuff like that. So if you are out there and happen to stumble upon this little blog, please help. I need to propagate this product. Not just because I make a living with it but because it is a really AMAZING teething biscuit. A recipe from France which my husband and I brought to the US 15 years ago. We've been selling the St. Amour Teethers to Whole foods in Southern California for years but find it extremely difficult to grow and yet they are flying out of the shelves here and also in NYC. So go figure why we can't seem to get a distributor. Anyhow, that's life. What ever will be will be but let me reiterate. Your baby will have something special with this product and if you happen to have one of these little beauties who cries all the time.... Well people tell us that the St. Amour Teethers do the trick. Babies can spend hours with one of them and in addition the are totally Vegan, cholesterol and dairy free and have no yeast and no preservatives.
Sorry, let me get this straight. You have a great product that flies off the shelves... and obviously in places like So Cal and NYC where vegan is super popular no less...
ReplyDeleteWhat you want to convey is "your baby will have something special with this product" and "if your baby cries a lot, these will do the trick".
Allow me to be frank:
as long as the baby doesn't see the package, I have no doubt your product can help my baby stop crying. However, if I have to see this box every time I open my pantry, daddy will not be able to stop the nightmares! No, sir!
Instead of thinking about the tasty European-style biscuits, I won't be able to stop wondering if Nosferatu's illegitimate son is going to latch on to my jugular vein as I scream, "all I wanted was some chips man!"
I mean seriously, the box looks like the cover for a terrible 80's re-hashing of the classic 1922 film.
Except now the baby sitter is coming to the castle and has no idea that this baby is not worth the 15 euros an hour while daddy Nosferatu goes on a date. Maybe he explains to the baby sitter that she is responsible for feeding the baby while he's gone but doesn't specify what and there is no food anywhere in the castle. The babysitter looks through every cupboard, the pantry, and the icebox, and after looking, scratches her head with a puzzled look on her face. Unbeknownst to her "baby Feratu" is creeping up behind her ready to sink his new teeth into her succulent neck veins...
Maybe that could be your commercial for these biscuits. I would actually watch that.
but seriously, hire a pro to fix the packaging and I'm sure it will sell better. However, I have seen your box all over the internet as a bad example of packaging design. Bad press is still press, so you got that going for you.
If you want, send me a message and I would be glad to offer a design for a fair price.
I have a feeling the package is the reason why a big store retailer won't buy your product.
