Satisfied customer sings our praises!

It is always exciting to hear someone who confirms what we already think. We think that we have the best sample box and some very talented e-tailers, but we always love hearing what our customers think. From time to time, we may opt to share some of their opinions. We want our e-tailers to know that people think you have the most FANTASTIC products! Thanks to everyone who participates in our boxes and for allowing us to promote your products and company. Here's the glowing review from Christina C:

Feel welcome to use my comment!

I bought my first box from Snowberry Creek this month and it was the BEST sample box ever. I love your boxes and would like to become a regular customer. Thanks for what you do!
And it really was the best. It had the most samples, the largest sizes, and the fewest tart or "odds n' ends" samples. Not that those are bad samples, but they're not bath and body samples that I crave.


Thanks for choosing our sample box, Christina C. We certainly appreciate you taking time to let us know what you think.

Our e-tailers offer a variety of products - you may order directly from their websites.

Don't Miss Out!

It's not too late to get in on the special e-tailer drawing for August. Many e-tailers are taking advantage of this offer - to be included in a drawing for a $25 Wal-Mart Gift Card. We want to give back to our e-tailers. If you would like to be in the August box and eligible for the drawing, please contact us at snowberrycreek@hotmail.com. The samples/products must reach us by August 21st for you to be eligible for this offer.

We will be having other specials for e-tailers to be announced at a later date. Good luck to everyone who is already registered for the drawing.

How to Be an E-tailer in Snowberry Creek Sample Boxes

So, you want to be an e-tailer in our sample boxes and don’t know where to start. I’ll see if I can answer some of the most asked questions.

Does it cost anything? No, there is not cost to you ever other than the cost of your samples.
Is there a minimum amount? Yes, we have a minimum of 10 samples/or full-sized items for any month you wish to participate. However, we have no maximum so if you wish to send in a large amount and spread it out over a couple of months – that’s fine with us. Just specify how you want it.

When are the samples due? Samples are due by the 15th of any month you wish to participate.

What kind of samples should I send? Send whatever you wish for the consumer to see. Send the product you like the best, what you think is your best item or a new item you wish to promote. Remember to package your item attractively to present it in the most positive light. Sometimes, first impressions are all that you get. You want to catch the consumer’s eye – ensuring they don’t forget about you. Your items should be correctly labeled and prominently display your website and company name. We want the consumer to be able to easily find you.

Can I send full-sized items? Certainly! Everyone loves receiving full-sized items. But, this is not required. You may send in any size sample that you want. Just remember that the consumer will judge your products by your sample. Make sure it is an ample enough size for them to be able to determine if they like the product.

Can I send in business cards, brochures, post cards? Yes, if you send in samples you may send in literature on your products and company. We do not accept just business cards, etc. without samples as no one wants to purchase business cards.

Should I offer a discount coupon with my product? That is entirely up to each individual. Some do, some don’t. We do not require that you do.

Do I need a banner? No. If you have one, we will proudly display it on the website and forum. If you do not, we can make you one for $10 and you can use it in any manner you want. It will be yours. However, if you don’t have one and don’t want one, that’s fine with us.

Do I need to send in some information about my items? Yes. Please send a brief description of your products/and or company. This will be displayed on the website.

Where will I be listed on the internet: You will be listed on the Snowberry Creek E-tailers in the Box page on the website, you will be listed on the past e-tailers page (when you are a past e-tailer) on the website, the Snowberry Creek forum, Snowberry Creek blog, and our myspace page. These are the places that you will have direct links posted to your website. We will advertise Snowberry Creek Sample Boxes in other places and you will benefit from this, also.
If you choose to be in the “e-tailer spotlight” or the “product showcase” on our blog, this will promote your website and products by additional links for the search engines to find. There is no charge for this service. It will be promoted on many forums. You can offer an item for a drawing to get people to visit your website and then leave a comment on the blog about one of your products. This is not required, but does help generate traffic to your site.

Who donates the mystery prize for the month? Any e-tailer that wishes to be the mystery prize donor for the month should let us know. You will be listed as the mystery prize donor – listed on the website as such and promoted on the blog and forum. You should send your “full-sized” item for the mystery prize drawing in at the same time you send your samples. We will pay for the shipping to the winner of the prize. We will announce the winner along with the donor on our forum, blog and myspace, this will add more links for the search engines.

Can I have a page on your website? Yes. We do offer sponsor pages. You may have a sponsor page for $10 per month in additional to sending in a minimum of 50 samples for the month. Business cards do not count as samples.

What can I put on my sponsor page? This is your own personal webpage. You may display anything you want on your page such as: ads, sales, pictures, promotions, etc. You may have up to 5 pictures on your page. This is a way to promote your products and website in any way you wish. The page will remain active for the month you are a sponsor. There can be more than one sponsor per month, as each sponsor will have their own page for promotion showcasing their products and website. No one has to “share” the spotlight on their page with anyone else.

We enclose a flyer asking the consumer to please visit the e-tailer’s website to see all of the products they offer. We ask them to leave feedback about the products they have received so the e-tailers know if they are pleased with the items. They may leave feedback on the forum, myspace, our blog or directly email the e-tailer.

It has never been easier to be an e-tailer. Get your products and website in the spotlight and into the hands of the consumer. We believe that the independent business owner has superior products, excellent customer service and is the backbone of America. We look forward to working with you to promote, advertise and raise the ranking of your website.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at snowberrycreek@hotmail.com, leave a post on our blog or visit our website http://www.snowberrycreek.com/. We love hearing from you!

Anticipation of my Indulgence

I looked out on the porch and what should I see,
A box from Snowberry Creek addressed to me.
I’ve waited and watched each day,
Wondering what “goodies” are on their way.
I’m excited, atwitter and full of glee,
As I fall down on bended knee.
Wonderful aromas wafting in the air,
I can’t wait to check out my ware.
Grab the box….into the house in I rush,
Rip it open; call all my friends to gush!
You won’t believe all the loot in this box,
The e-tailers in Snowberry Creek rocks!
Soaps, gels, teas, salts and scrubs….
Many things to use in your tubs.
Candles, tarts, votives and melts,
You house will be the best it has ever smelt.
Perfumes, lip balm, lotions and such,
Keep you longing for so much.
Each month is a surprise,
Never knowing what’s inside.
It’s a great way to start your day,
Finding new products this way.
The e-tailers offer more,
Be sure to stop by their store.

We don’t stop working for you once your samples arrive and we put them in the box. We are continually looking for ways to promote you. We strive to gain more recognition on the internet for you. The more links you have, the higher you will be in the search engines. The higher in the search engines you are – the more visible you are. The more visible you are – the easier it is for the consumer to find you.

When you decide to become a participant in Snowberry Creek Sample Boxes; you send your products in and email us a banner (optional) and a write up of your products. We will add you to the “e-tailers in the box” – this is your first link. You will have a link on our forum, on our blog and if you have a blog – we will add it, too.
