A couple of weeks back, I ordered a bag from the online store Chumbak*
The bag was of very good quality, no doubt, but what I liked more were the little bits of detail in the product package — the bright pink tags on the bag; the caption that said ‘Designed with love in India’; and my favourite, the metallic baby elephant!
A symbol of my love for textured paper; a symbol of national pride; and a symbol of the joys of little surprises.
Kudos to the team at the store for putting their heart into the purchase experience!
In other marketing news, here’s something I recently created — a t-shirt of my mother’s kolam!
This is the first of what I hope will become a series of tees – see, there’s a logo too! 😀
I’m still figuring out how to go about all this, and I need your help to make it successful. I’d really appreciate if you would share this with anyone who’d be interested in buying it 🙂
If you’d like to purchase it, it is available here and here.

‘scuse my cynicism, but I think the 1970s Australian band Skyhooks pretty much nailed the concept of using love as a marketing tool.

Well, yes marketing in this day and age is quite a sad story. But that’s where I felt this store was different. They seem to be loving what they do, and the attention to small details is where they win over customers. An example of true marketing, beginning with a quality product and an honest intent, instead of relying on hard selling.
