There's such a difference between truly standing for what you believe in and just having a mission statement that says what you believe in. We've all seen those signs stuck up on the side of shop walls where the staff believe ion things and want to do the best possible - and they suck - right? Just like when you order from Newcastle hampers and Gift baskets - you can expect the very best in a meaningful and purposeful gift that is not just the ordinary.
Too many affiliate companies and even florists have turned their attention to gift hampers and making fresh fruit baskets and to be honest - their intentions may be good, but their actual product delivery just plain sucks. Here's why.

When you are a florist or a fruit and vegetable shop and you reckon you'll have a bash at fruit baskets and gourmet hampers - you just sound phony and disconnected from reality straight away. You're not in it for this from the start - so why have a stab at it now? It's not what you do - it's just a thing you're chucking together on the side - isn't it? And you think we're not gonna notice? Yeah - right!
Imagine you're standing in the shop of the florist or fruit and veg store - the floors dirty - there's no one at the counter - a tired old man squints open an eye from his chair in the back corner of the shop - and then you see it - a tattered piece of paper with some dodgy clip art pinned to a cork board - it's the mission statement.
Our mission is to fulfill ...xxx... exceed expectations for quality, value and service.
Strive to earn loyalty ...xxx... over delivering and meeting promises..xxx... exceptional personalized service ...xxx... supporting development and providing opportunities ...xxx... yadda yadda yadda
It drones on. It's not really a reflection of the business or your experience and it really has as much meaning as a cat hanging on poster or a palm tree on Maui hung from the wall. What's the point?
Fresh Fruit is the Answer - as a catch all gift suggestion - there is something about the fresh honesty and authenticity of fresh fruit - nothing quite matches the unspoiled purity of fruit. |

So we might not have the flashest mission statement or the biggest social media blurb with the hashtags and the @ and the whatever else we need these days - but we do a damn fine hamper and having a big shiny hamper plonked on your front office is one of the nicest, most powerful ways to share and connect and there's just a total guarantee that it will turn heads and makes mouth corners curl upwards.
