You told two friends, and they told two friends...

There was a commercial from the 80s for Faberge Organic shampoo that used the catch phrase, "I told two friends, then they told two friends, and so on and so on".  Do any of you remember it? 

I was reminded of that commercial as I read through some recent blog posts about the opening of our new shoppe just a couple weeks ago.  You see, we don't advertise.  Well I should say, we don't advertise in the traditional mediums.  Our advertising?  Our customers.  How?  They tell their friends!

You won't find a billboard with our business name on it, but you will find our name gracing the blogs and FB pages of our clients and friends.  And mind you, it's not just pictures, not just our name, but something far more special, it's their experience in our shoppe!  There's not an ad or a billboard that can possibly convey that, and there's no way to place a value on it! 

We have the best advertising that money CAN'T buy....YOU!

Here's just a snippet of some of our recent advertising...



















How's that for an unexpected advertising campaign?  Be sure to visit their blogs by clicking the links!

Thank you my friends for telling your friends, not just on the blogs, but also through word of mouth. It is the best gift I could ever get!

If you know of other posts please send them to me so I can share them! 

P.S.  Does anyone else remember that commercial?

  1. Yes, I do remember that commercial although admitting it does date me. I've seen your store mentioned on several other blogs, if I can find them.

  3. After reading your post I had to go to youtube to see if that commercial was on there and it is! Too funny! And, just so you know, it's not just how pretty your store is that people talk about it's how great they feel when they are there. Your store is truly something special.

  6. I've told everyone I know about what is going on over there at your place... and each person says the same thing "There's nothing like it!"
    Your spirit of happiness and joy and uniqueness overflows to all who enter. No one can help but share the experience.
    Thanks for including me :)

  7. I echo what Becky said, I've told everyone, YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS STORE! There's nothing that even comes close to it as far as I'm concerned!

  13. Well, next time I am taking some pictures to post as words just don't cut it. And about the commercial...I was in California doing a training class a few months ago and I referenced this commercial. I got blank looks! I realized that the average age in the room was less than 30, so I just moved on. Glad to hear that others remember this commercial. Can't wait to see you soon...I am bringing my Mother and some friends with me this time....better stock up.
