1M/1M is an initiative founded by Srmana Mitra. From her website:
In 2010, Sramana founded the One Million by One Million initiative to help a million entrepreneurs globally to reach a million dollars in annual revenue, build $1 trillion in global GDP, and create 10 million jobs. In 1M/1M, she teaches the Entrepreneur Journeys (EJ) methodology to entrepreneurs around the world.
Ms. Mitra’s bio is remarkably impressive and her cause is noble. We’re looking forward to attending. You should be, too. Don’t miss out!
This is another one of those cases wherein the name of the store in question has completely robbed this announcement of any sense of mystery so we’ll just go ahead and say it… Sprinkler Supply Store sells sprinkler supplies. (duh).
If it has to do with suburban irrigation needs, Sprinkler Supply has you covered. Hoses, valves, sprinklers – they’ve got it all.
BUT, lest you think that they’re completely one-note, Sprinkler Supply also sells landscape lighting, gardening supplies and products to meet all of your decorative water feature needs.
So, we were wrong about the name telling the whole story. Our apologies to the fine folks at Sprinkler Supply Store and welcome to the Brand Labs family!
We’ve recently increased our international client base with the addition of The Body Pharmacy.
The Body Pharmacy (based in London, England) carries a wide range of natural supplements and beauty products in their Volusion store. From skin care to emotional health, TBP is sure to have a concoction to suit your needs.
Congratulations on the launch of your new website, Body Pharmacy! Tonight, we’ll have an acai berry cocktail in your honor.
We’re jumping the gun a bit on this one, but it’s super sunny today so we just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to talk about Solar Geek Living’s new Volusion store.
Granted, it’s not fully merchandised (unless you’re looking to stock up on some lorem ipsum) but even now you can begin to get an idea of the full range of alternative energy products that will soon be available at Solar Geek.
We also designed and implemented their blog. Again, it’s not quite ready for its national debut, but, like we said, the summer sun’s got us thinking solar, so we thought we’d pass it along.
Our latest site launch has us glowing with pride (as well awakening in us a strong desire to exploit every light-related pun, gag and play-on-words that we have in our bag of tricks – we will, however, restrain ourselves).
Lighting by Lux is the online sister store to Lux Lighting – a 20 year old institution with a 7500 square foot brick and mortar showroom in Atlanta, GA. Seventy. Five. Hundred. Square. Feet. That’s a heck of a lot of lights. Let’s put it this way: there are over 300 items in their chandelier category. That basically means that if you need a fixture and Lux doesn’t have it, you’d better start building it yourself because we’re pretty sure they carry everything that plugs in and lights up.
Our latest Volusion store launch makes us think of the part in The Godfather after Michael Corleone kills Sollozzo and McCluskey and he flees to the old country to escape the subsequent mob war – only without all of the graphic violence and moral ambiguity.
The Olive Oil Merchant stands poised to deliver only the finest Italian olive oil and specialty foods to our lucky, lucky canuckian neighbors. With their clear dedication to quality and tradition, they’re sure to bring some Mediterranean sunshine to the Great White North.
Our founders spent some time at the recent Internet Retailers Conference and Exhibition in Chicago, and a good portion of that time was spent in the company of our bestest friends at Volusion. Here you’ll see Volusion’s video recap of the event and starting at about 1:22 you can see Dane and Kevin (from left to right) talking about the future of eCommerce. Their answer is pretty lengthy just because it would be rude to say, “The future of eCommerce is Brand Labs,” before throwing some gang signs and walking off camera (which was the original plan).
We’re proud to announce our latest Volusion store launch: eUndies.com.
We’d love to give you the lowdown on the site, but the headline pretty much says it all… except that eUndies was established in 2003 and has been the goto store for cute and/or sexy underthings ever since.
Do you have brick and mortar stores in addition to your Volusion store? Are you a manufacturer (with a Volusion site) who’d like to tell your customers where to find your products in the real world? Do you have no practical use for an interactive map, but you really, really want one anyway? Well guess what, buttercup… we’re prepared to hook you up!
We’ve been doing store locators for clients for some time, but every once in a while we feel compelled to remind you of the many, many ways we can alter your Volusion store to suit your particular needs. In this latest case, BulletProofDiesel.com came to us with an existing Volusion store, but no good way to tell their online clients where they could have their products installed locally. That’s where our Volusion store locator implementation came in. Now, anyone browsing their online store will be easily able to pinpoint a local vendor, helping to seal the conversion and creating a brand new satisfied customer. It’s just that easy.
Contact us if you’re interested in a store locator for your Volusion site! We’ll be happy to help.
Last week, our founders (and senior corporate officers) Kevin Harman and Dane Downer, attended the Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition in Chicago. In addition to representin’ for Brand Labs, they had the opportunity to meet with our friends at Volusion, including founder and president, Kevin Sproles (seen here chatting with Kevin and Dane).
Attendance for the conference was up significantly over last year and the prevailing tone was overwhelmingly optimistic, as eCommerce continues to assert its critical position in the world of consumer retail operations as a whole. The obvious buzzword (or buzzphrase, if you will) was mobile commerce, and as the first developers of a mobile Volusion platform, we weren’t surprised one little bit. Hit the jump to see a few pics of Brand Labs with all the party people…
One of our oldest and most loyal customers, EcoMowers.com, will be adding to the conversation in tomorrow’s Strategy Roundtable hosted by 1M/1M and Volusion.
