Should the dog go or stay? Poll Added!

[farvelcargo]

I thought I should add a poll! Should have thought of that sooner! doh!

When I was putting this together the picture that I was working on to go in the place where "Buckeye" is wouldn't load!
So I got pissed after a couple tries and put her there and never got around to changing it.

Do you think Buckeye should go or stay?
I haven't had many sales lately a lot of traffic though!  :confused:

sue  ~  nice  dog  ~  but is not a tool item  ~ i would delete the nice dog pic  and  put a  pic of a popular tool instead of the dog  my  1 cent worth

Hey Sue,

I think the hound should stay - he doesn't look fierce enough to be chasing anybody away from the site!  Makes the page look more friendly I think!

Maybe you should make mention of him in the intro....Buckeye says I should offer a free gift with every purchase!  LOL!  Just a thought.  I know, dog people are weird - Dan & I make up conversations for our dogs (and cats) all the time!

As much as I'm loving the dog (got 4 of my own), he just doesn't go with the tools theme.

Sue put a toolbelt on the dog and keep him. Or a little hat with the name of your store. Like the RCA dog
 :blink

I can get a baseball cap with my logo on it at my CafePress Shop! But would a yellow hard hat be great!?
I can barely get her to sit still for a picture let alone with a hard hat on!
Hmmmm............. Maybe I'll give it a go in Photoshop!
Thanks for your input everyone!

Definitely a hat, a hard hat would be perfect!

Ok my personal opinion 

I love the dog and think she's cute as can be, BUT I'm not your target audience.

Your target audience of buyers I'm assuming are males over the age of 25.  They tend not to do cute dogs.  Now you could throw yourself across the hood of a sports car...

Good idea Deb! I think I will need PhotoShop for that picture too!

I would have to agree and i see you made a change already. One suggestion i would have is maybe add you avatar to that new logo somehow. It's speaks volumes and I love it.

Okay I had a car pic, so I put it on my eCrater Store! My dog is my MSN messenger avatar now. But Joe, the only place The Crabby Host avatar is going right now is here!

Thank you everyone!

Sue -

Your eCrater store is looking great! I think you are the official First One to start a poll at Crabby

Here's 20 points just for that. Keep up the good work on your store - the sales WILL come...

WOW! Thanks Patti!
I did get a sale yesterday! Maybe it was the car! :shock
 Waiting to see if they are going to pay for the shipping though! It's always nice when they do!

She bought 2 items and paid right away but not for the shipping, so I invoiced her! It's always something!

Yes, isn't it nice when they pay the shipping - so considerate!! LOL!  I also get the ones that decide they don't like my shipping amount, so they just change it to whatever they feel like paying! What, it doesn't cost $2 to send this heavy book from another country?? Gotta love 'em!  Congrats on the sales! Here's to many more!
