Holiday Promos

Posted by Solid Cactus on Nov 24, 2008

If you know what’s good for you, you’re doing some sort of holiday promo this year. I think it’s absolutely critical that merchants offer shipping deals or other sales in order to stand out in the holiday rush. It’s quick and easy to pop a coupon code in your ad text, even for those short [...]

It started during his campaign where he was reaching out to young voters by hitting [...]

To “Cc” or not “Cc”? That is the question…

Posted by Greg Davis on Nov 21, 2008

I once had a co-worker say to me “if I’m Cc’d on an email, I just delete it, if the info is important for me to know, they would have sent it to me directly”. I would not recommend this frame of thinking and as you can imagine, he wasn’t a co-worker for long. [...]

The Frog Blog

Posted by Solid Cactus on Nov 21, 2008

A coworker just stopped by, and started talking about the family frog.  That’s right.  I said “the family frog”.
He talked about how the family frog started out as a science project.  His daughter nurtured the little guy from tadpole to full-fledged froghood.  But it didn’t happen overnight.  It took a lot of time, effort and [...]

Question of the Week: How do I add info pages to my navigation?

Posted by Solid Cactus on Nov 18, 2008

There is actually two ways to answer this question. The first would be to use a regular item type page only filling in the name, image (if necessary), and caption. This will show the informational page similar to your section pages. This leave yourself open to the possibility to linking to pages by using the [...]

The Fifty-Percent

Posted by Scott Sanfilippo on Nov 18, 2008

When you hit the web to do some shopping do you buy? According to a study conducted by iPerceptions Inc., 1 out of every 2 visitors who come to your site to buy something, turn around and leave without spending a dime. That is a big wake-up call for every e-commerce store owner [...]

Margie had puppies.

Posted by Scott Sanfilippo on Nov 17, 2008

As the story goes, Margie in our business office boarded her chocolate lab while on vacation. Upon return, she found out that there was some “hanky panky” going on in the kennel which resulted in a visit from the stork a few weeks later!
Today, as the puppies turned four weeks old, Margie brought them [...]
