What Do You Do With Your Cell Phone Strap

May 7th, 2008

Much weight is given to the functions of a cell, have you ever noticed your cell phone strap, wondered what you can do with it?

The history of this strap hole can be traced back to when cell phone or mobile phone came out. Of course, it was created for the convenience purpose at first. But soon this small design spreaded to almost every thing we use. So there are mp3 strap, mp4 strap and more.

Now these straps are not only for carrying convenience, but more important, for decoration or showing the personal style or personalities of its owner. And the design of straps are distinct from each other, from simple cartoon stuff animal to precious Jewelry Dangles straps.

There are some benefits when you go with a cell phone strap.

1.Make your cell more charming and inviting. Young people are prone to take their cells as life friends not just tool, they like add colors to them. There are several ways to do that. Change faceplate, beads and gold coating, colorful skin and more. But the easiest way is adding a strap that suit your taste. Easy and money-saving. Not just decorates your cell, it also adds a sense of amusing to your daily life.

2. Show your personality and lifestyle. No wonder whatever you do showes what your think and who you are.This is easy to understand. A teen’s cell phone strap is hugely different from an adult’s, so are the people have different interests. In such a showing world, it’s somewhat clever to show yourself on the strap.

3. Use it as some special memorial or gift. It is not a bad idea to present this gadget to your friends or lovers to remind your special relationship. I always keep the luck strap that I got on my 20th birthday and I don’t want to change it because it is from one of my friends, so it is much more meaningful then a randomly picked one on flea market.

Then how to choice the right strap? There are three steps to do.

Step 1, make your purpose clear. Ask yourself what I use it for, for my self or gift to some one else?

Step 2, choice the kind of strap that meet your need. Some specific kind of straps are only proper for narrow conditions. A kind of sexy underwear strap is designed for lovers and couples, another handcuff strap is used to attach the cell to your belt clip.

Step 3, go ahead and hunt. Go to a flea market nearby or surf web both are good choices.

Nokia N95 Aluminium Case

NOKIA N95 Super Slim Aluminium Metal Skin Case Cover

I think it is the best case I ever tried on my N95.

The original leather case from Nokia is very nice, but does not protects too much when it’s opened.
The crystal cases are too cheap and fragile.
The rubberized cases are better than the crystal ones, but still fragile (two months and they´re broken).

I’ll still to try and see if this really causes any impact on my GPS signal, but as long as I can see it, this is a hell of a good case!

There are five color choices available for this Nokia N95 Aluminium Case so far.

Cell Phones Slow Traffic

January 11th, 2008

A recent study found that motorists on cell phones have a tendency to slow down traffic.

Motorists yakking away, even with handsfree devices, crawl about 2 mph slower on commuter-clogged roads than people not on the phone, and they just don’t keep up with the flow of traffic, said study author David Strayer, a psychology professor at the University of Utah.

If you commute by car an hour a day, it could all add around 20 hours a year to your commute, Strayer said.

The distracted driver tends to drive slower and have delayed reactions,” said Strayer, whose study will be presented later this month to the Transportation Research Board of the National Academy of Sciences. “People kind of get stuck behind that person and it makes everyone pay the price of that distracted driver.”

Strayer’s study, based on three dozen students driving in simulators, found that drivers on cell phones are far more likely to stick behind a slow car in front of them and change lanes about 20 percent less often than drivers not on the phone.
It sounds like yet another reason to keep the phone turned “off” when behind the wheel. Adding extra drive time to any commute is a drag.

What are your thoughts? Do your observations of drivers support this study?

Dropshipper - 12 Step Selection Process

December 28th, 2007

Dropshipping has rapidly become one of the easiest ways to sell products on the internet without the need for capital, there are literally thousands of sites out there that pertain to be dropshippers, and it can be a minefield for those looking to get into dropshipping in order to make some money. I have been getting into dropshipping for a number of years now and thought that I would document a few of my thoughts and questions that come to mind when I consider a new dropshipper arrangement. Some questions you may wish to ask are:

1. Is the dropshipping product list static?

What I mean by this is ‘are the products available going to change’, this is important because if a dropshipper sticks to a fixed product list then you have no way of moving with the times and you will be plugging away trying to dropship out of ‘life cycle’ products. Ideally the product list should update regularly giving you different products to promote and make money from.

2. What availability guarantees are they claiming and are they proven?

One of the key factors to consider when using a dropshipper is the availability of product, remember you are selling to a customer without having the product at hand so you need to be assured that when you sell that Camera or MP3 player that the dropshipper will have the product in stock and be able to deliver to your customer. There is nothing worse than selling a product to a customer who thinks you have the product in stock only to find out the dropshipper is out of stock and you have to let them down. I term this Business Critical, as there is no hope of return custom after letting them down. Some of the more advanced dropshippers have online access to their stock lists and you can see what they have in stock and how quickly they go out of stock before you choose to sell a particular product.

3. Previous customer testimonials?

Nothing is better than word of mouth! if a previous customer is willing to praise the dropshipper then they are obviously doing something right.

4. Sales/Copy and images for auctions?

Does the dropshipper provide any sales copy and/or images that you can use on your sales pages? Most of the reputable ones are willing to help you in this area because the more you sell the more they sell.

5. Does the pricing allow you a margin?

When selecting a dropshipper always compare the prices they charge to those that are being commanded in your marketplace, research some offers from your competition and see whether you are comparable or hopefully better. Obviously this is one single product and don’t be afraid to use a dropshipper for one product and use another for another product, dropshipping is that easy you can use 10 dropshippers to sell 10 different products.

6. How long does it take before you ship my order?

What are the lead times for the shipping of your orders, obviously your customers are expecting a speedy service and if the dropshipper in question is going to take 2-3 weeks to ship then you are not going to have many happy customers. You will also need this information so that in your sales copy you can inform the customer the expected delivery time. Most reputable dropshippers ship in 3 days maximum, with some delivering next day.

7. Can I place orders 24/7?

This can be important especially if you are using a dropshipper in a different country, the country you are selling in maybe during the day while the one that the dropshipper is in may be the middle of the night and as such may cause added delays if they do not have a system in place. Top line dropshippers have automated systems but other reputable dropshippers still use manual ordering so this is not a factor to put you off but more a bonus if the system is automated.

8. How will my merchandise be shipped?

The simple question here is will the item be shipped under plain packaging? If it isn’t then the customer can circumvent you on any subsequent orders, which isn’t a business practice that will sustain your own. Again, pretty much all the reputable dropshippers post under plain packaging,but there are a few that don’t and obviously these are the ones to avoid. It is also wise to review how the dropshipper delivers, ie. With postal service/3rd party service they are using and the guarantees/information that they provide such as tracking codes etc. Always go with a dropshipping service that doesn’t advertise themselves when they ship.

9. Do you ship internationally?

Obviously, you want to sell to the biggest market you can and if your dropshipper will not ship internationally then you will potentially be losing a large chunk of sales. Again this needs to be taken into context with the product you are selling, if it is a country specific product that you are just selling, then international shipping is not a factor. Also if it is a bulky product, then the shipping costs would be that large that most international customers would not want to pay the cost and this again negates the need to ship internationally.

10. Are you a middle man or a dropshipper?

When researching a dropshipper you want to make sure that they are actually a true dropshipper and not actually a middle man that is using a dropshipper to dropship for you. This means that you are being overcharged and that with a bit more research, you will be able to locate the original dropshipper and make some extra profit per sale.

11. What is the return and refund policy?

What exactly is the policy, most dropshippers accept returns and if they do not then do not use them period. Obviously when selling any product, your customer may have a problem with it or feel it is actually unsuitable after all and wish to return it, this is obviously a service you may or may not actually offer to your customer. However having a strictly prohibited returns policy will lose you sales, so it is something you need to be clear on. What generally happens is you contact the dropshipper and they issue you with a returns authority number (RA) for which you need to use to send the products back, when the product arrives back, then they issue a refund which you pass onto the customer. Obviously, this adds time to the return process and in the meantime you may wish to refund the customer as soon as they return the product to you before you send it back to your dropshipper, because this will speed the customer refund and increase your customer service.

12. Do you have to reside in the same country to use the dropshipper?

Some dropshippers only allow residents of their own country to use their service and this question needs to be asked, so that there is no confusion and problems going forward.

Dropship Wholesale Distributors - What Makes a Good Wholesaler

December 19th, 2007

Dropship wholesale distributors can make or break your reselling business. This is especially true if you are running a tight ship, a one-man online operation selling your wares on Ebay, Yahoo Auctions, or simply via your online store. You would need reliable dropship wholesale distributors as your business partners in order for your business to grow by leaps and bounds. This is even more vital for your business growth if you are selling products in a competitive market. Let us look at some secrets to assess if you should do business with the dropship wholesale distributor.

Assuming you have conducted a search for your potential suppliers either from the search engines or local newspaper ads and now have a list on hand. The next task is to evaluate each of these dropship wholesale distributors according to some criteria.

Dropship Wholesale Distributors Criteria 1 – Established and Reputable

It is important to work with dropship wholesale distributors with a good reputation. Honesty and reliability are two key business principles to adhere to in this wholesale business. If you are sourcing from overseas, you may not have the luxury to converse face-to-face with your suppliers. The only handles you have are their track record. You may check out their business practices at Better Business Bureau if they are located in US. If not, find out which are the national or government agencies that govern business registrations and licensing. Drop a note to find out if there have been complaints lodged against them. Of course, there are other avenues to find out more such as work-at-home or auction forums. These are great places to educate oneself on the reseller business and be alerted to scams.

Dropship Wholesale Distributors Criteria 2 – Overseas Dropshipping

Depending on your target customer base, whether it is local or worldwide, your needs can be different. It is crucial to clarify this with the dropship wholesale distributors. If your market is in US and your dropshipper operates there, you would not have any problem. However, you may encounter shipping difficulties if your dropshipper cannot make deliveries to your buyer destinations. Find out where the dropshipper ships to and establish where your market is. But one point to note: if you intend to expand your business and make more sales, it works well to find wholesale distributors who dropship internationally.

Dropship Wholesale Distributors Criteria 3 – Pricing

Never pay too much or too little. If the wholesale distributor charges an exorbitant rate, avoid it. There are many dropship wholesale distributors who are willing to settle for lesser. While this is true, you also must not fall for the cheapest deals either without careful consideration. There must be a reason for the depressed prices. Ask the dropship wholesale distributor and make sure you are satisfied with their answers. Sometimes, the poor product quality could be the reason. Expect a reasonable discount of at least 15% off the retail price when you deal with the dropship wholesale distributors.

Dropship Wholesale Distributors Criteria 4 – Credit and Payment Conditions

Every business owner needs to sort this out with their suppliers. It is no different for you as a reseller. Remember to ask several key questions like: Do you have to pay them upfront per sale? Accumulate and pay monthly or quarterly? What are the modes of payment such as whether they accept paypal or credit cards? Are they offering a 30-day or 60-day credit term? Once you have built trust and rapport with your dropship wholesale distributors, you can negotiate for longer credit term, etc so that you can save on payment transaction costs which can add up.

Dropship Wholesale Distributors Criteria 5 – Product Quality

Product quality is of utmost importance to your reselling business. If your wholesale distributors play you out by delivering inferior-quality merchandise or worse still, send bootleg products to your customers, the hard-earned reputation you have painstakingly built over the years goes down the drain. Never allow this to happen to you. If you are dealing in bulk which you should, request for a free sample. Think long-term and it makes sense to at least have a feel of the product before you sell it to anyone, especially if the item commands a higher profit margin such as MP3 players. You may even consider ordering one for yourself just to test it out.
