So far, this has been an unusual and frustrating year for Christmas Night Inc. Normally we expect to start receiving our Christmas Nativity sets and other large Christmas decorating figures in May and to have completed most of these incoming shipments by the end of August. This year, the Chinese labor shortages and labor strife, shortages of shipping containers, missing ships and poor weather have delayed much of our incoming product by several months.
The exciting thing is that we have now taken delivery of a large number of containers, most of which arrived last week and are arriving this week. While this puts quite a strain on our receiving and warehouse staff, we can now start to fill pending orders, follow up the many inquiries and contact loyal customers who want to complete sets or add new pieces to their collections. It also means that we can start to advertise online and with newsletters to our loyal customer base as well as pump up our SEO efforts.
We have also created a Christmas Night page on FaceBook and added a FaceBook Share icon on the website pages and this blog. We hope that customers will use these tools to show their friends sets and items that they liked and perhaps purchased,as well as sharing their Christmas stories and pictures. Please contact us and let us know what else we can do to make the website and blog as user friendly as possible.
