The Brentwood Press came by last week and wrote up a nice article about our store. It's been great growing our online business to over 35,000 customers. Now we're able to really service the local community and we're thrilled that people are coming from "Over the Hill" in Concord, Walnut Creek, Alamo, etc to shop with us. Thanks to everyone for all the great local support!
Please come and join us to welcome CBS Channel 5 as they highlight local businesses and will be at Alpaca Direct from 10am - 12pm on Saturday, October 24th. We'll have a few of our baby alpacas in front of the store so bring the kids and have fun petting the Alpacas and telling the News Crew at CBS 5 why you like shopping Local at Alpaca Direct!
Check out the article this month in Fortune Small Business / CNN-Money Magazine featuring us as one of the top "Innovative" retailers for our use of customer reviews and letting our customers share their experience with each other. We value each customer's feedback and use reviews to improve our products and our service. We just sent out a separate customer satisfaction survey yesterday and 95.62% of you would refer us to a friend for online shopping. Thanks and we'll keep trying hard to deliver value and earn your business!
