When it comes to the influential tween market, gift and add-on products that attract “allowance” spending are incredibly important. Studies have shown that from “their own” money, tweens easily spend over 50 billion dollars a year! Tweenagers love to shop, and seek out products that speak their language, stand out, and have the potential to generate peer power. Bottman Design, mishu, Just Bubbly and Bamboo Trading Company are a few tween-worthy brands creating trendy, must-have products that can quickly heat up retail sales!

Is the ‘Traditional’ Brick and Mortar Store Becoming Extinct?

I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day Holiday. In the past, (as a former specialty store owner myself) I would have been working all weekend, promoting a ‘Labor Day’ Sales Event. Television ads, radio ads, and print ads in local newspapers would have been de rigueur. But then again, that was over ten years ago…and a lot has changed…especially the mediums that would comprise a successful marketing/sales campaign. That should be obvious in this the age of social media…but for some it is not.

Everyone who has heard the phrase “soft as a baby’s bottom” knows that it is used to describe only the silkiest and smoothest of things. The saying also conjures up images of plump baby nether cheeks that are cushy cute! Today, The Giggle Guide® is delving into our diaper bag of tricks for the top products from Bumkins, Happy Heinys, Mad Gab’s and Starbunz that go into making those babies’ bums so soft and healthy. With new parents eager for the best products to keep their little ones clean, happy and dry, the possibilities are, well… bottomless!

Sustainability is still a buzzword in the gifts and decorative accessories industry, and it’s not too late to green your store — if even by just a little bit.

There are two ways to go green. The first is obvious — stock eco-friendly products. “Consumers’ interest in green products has not waned, and they are still willing to pay premium price points for quality, stylish and authentically green goods,” according to Home Accents Today.
