The internet, particularly in these difficult economic times, has become an indispensable tool in helping small businesses like ours compete effectively with our much larger competitors. Over the past few years our wholesale web site, www.sconecentral.com has enabled us to:
• improve sales and marketing while reducing costs;
• communicate more effectively and improve customer service;
• offer timely information on discounts and special promotions; and
• reach a national customer base with a small staff.
As a result of our experience we have made some changes to our wholesale site to provide every day value to large and small customers alike:
1. It is now possible to split cases (12 boxes/case; 2 flavors, 6 boxes each);
2. There are volume discounts for as little as 24 boxes per flavor;
3. Freight rates have been lowered to approximately 10% below standard UPS rates;
4. Purchases over $1,000 have one flat rate, regardless of the amount of the order;
5. There is a new in-store baking program which provides foodservice customers who purchase one of our ovens with a year’s worth of free baking mixes; and
6. The minimum order is only $150.
These special values are available only on orders placed on www.sconecentral.com. In addition, we will continue to offer monthly “internet only” specials, twice a year “internet only” sales, gourmet recipes and serving ideas, as well as other cost savings that we realize from making better use of internet technology.
To encourage you to visit www.sconecentral.com we are offering, in addition to all of the items listed above, a discount of 10% on orders for all of our baking mixes placed online through the end of March, 2009. We look forward to hearing from you.
