| What's Inside May 2008 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Fun!
Calling all dogs! The next TW photo contest will be ramping up soon. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| It seems spring came and went, and no photo contest. We'll take part of the blame for that, as were busy on other projects. But in all honesty, we did not have enough submissions to run a spring contest. That being said, we are however trying to schedule the next photo contest to begin around the beginning of June. And so.... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| We need everyone to break out their cameras and get busy! We still have some seats available to round out the contest. What better way to share your little angel with the rest of the world, and have fun doing it. Signing up for the contest is always easy... just go to the contest rules page and you can check out all the details. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| If you've never been part of a Tail Waggins photo contest, get ready because they can be pretty exciting. The voting is usually very spirited, and the top three dogs receive special TW prizes. Plus.. some lucky dogs will be making their way to the 2009 Tail Waggins desktop calendar. So, don't put it off till next week, if you've got a great shot of your baby share it with us today! We're looking forward to seeing all your little cuties. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Changes!
Sprucing up the website The first real changes in over a year. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| We've been hard at work trying to freshen up our website, the first real changes we've made to it in over a year! The first thing you may notice is a new home page sporting a photo taken inside the Tail Waggins store in Georgetown. The picture shows only a small bit of the store, however we did manage to squeeze all the people in. From left to right there is Kenny, the TW groomer; Diane, the boss!; Lorine, the TW bakery tech and sales associate; and Carol the TW lead sales associate. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The second thing you'll notice is the way in which the products are organized. Before, we had separate pages containing related items. For example, all the samplers were on a single page, plain bones were on a different page, cakes on another, and so on. Now, as you browse through our store you will find there is only one page that displays just the items you are looking for. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| We've built a very simple search tool which is used to display... everything. So, when you click on a button for "Toys", you are actually sending a request to the search tool to display everything that has the word "toys" in it. You can use the search tool directly by looking in the upper right corner of any page where you will find a text box and a "Find It!" button. Type your search item into the text box and press the "Find It!" button. If your search term is found, all the items containing that text will be displayed. Now, depending on what you're looking for, a page may contain a mixture of treats, toys, spa items, etc. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Keep in mind the search tool is brand new and very simple minded, so don't try to confuse it with long search terms or questions! Instead of typing "I have a small dog, what treats would be right for him?", try typing "small treats" or "bite sized treats". You can also type in separate ingredients such as "peanut butter" or "cheese", or find different types of toys by typing "plush toys" or "fetch toys". Go ahead and try it here... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| One last thing about the new organization which affects the newsletter. We have already started sprinkling mini articles and interesting facts in with the products. So, if for example you search for "cranberry" you will find some treats with cranberries, and a short little article about cranberries and their health benefits. Eventually, all the information that we gather for you will be displayed this way, and this newsletter will become more a collection of headlines with links to new items and information. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Converting the website and all the information that we think you'll find interesting is a huge task, and like all things in life, it is "work in progress". We hope that the changes will make it easier to find the items you're looking for, and generally make browsing our site a more pleasant experience for you. But moreso, we appreciate your patience through this transitionary period. And, as always if you have any questions or suggestions regarding the new website, please feel free to drop me a line and chat about it!
