Customer Service

 “People do not care how much you know until they know how much you care.” -Teddy Roosevelt

Little Kids Business will act as your Customer Service middle man. In some cases, we can handle the enquiry however there are times when we touch base with our Brand for further clarification. At Little Kids Business, we have the philosophy that a thankful approach is the best way to converse with customers.

A way that you can assist us to reduce our customer enquiries is to provide tracking for your gifts. From September 1st we will have options from our homepage for our customers to track their parcels. 

Marketing

Marketing isn’t just an important part of business success; it is the business. 
With three separate landing pages, we choose to market Little Kids Business, one business at a time. If we are promoting Baby gifts, we will use the link for the baby landing page so that it appears that the customer has come to a baby shop. We do the same for Little Kids and finally School Kids. The reason that we choose to market this way is that a parent of a teenager looking for coding toys does not wish to be marketed items in a Baby store and vice versa. 

In order to attract our target market to sign up to our email newsletter from September 1st 2019, we will be offering a FREE digital download or “Emergency Phone Numbers for Parents and Caregivers”. 

EDM (Electronic Direct Mail) Campaigns are sent out weekly to our growing database. 

Blogs – We use Blogs supplied by our vendors as well as our own blogs and those of the experts in our directory as a way to bring visitors to our Website. We use words and phrases that Google will love by filling our site with blog posts that contain keywords that are relevant to our industry.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)  

We are constantly filling with easy-to-read keyphrases and though we will complete the basics of your SEO.

Though this is not compulsory, it will assist your products to be found.
