Hi there and happy holidays everyone! I am excited to announce the launch of my brand new website, purechocolatetruffles.com.

I've been creating my own handmade truffles for a few years now, but I never had time to get a website up and running. Well it finally happened and I've already received some orders from it! I make handmade dark chocolate truffles in flavors such as Valencia, Coffee, and everyone's favorite French Bittersweet, and fresh homemade fudge, too. Customers can choose 6 or 15 count boxes of my truffles, which are made from scratch when I receive the order - my products don't sit on the shelf!

Please visit when you get a chance and let me know what you think!
Thanks! Dawn

Ah ok, good deal. I'm always looking for a way to convert more. Getting people to convert online takes a lot of guesswork and testing and we're still in the early stages of it.We've been at it locally now for almost a year. In the startup forum you can see some of the marketing questions we've been tossing around. I've finally got a lot of things ready to put in gear once January gets here (business to business marketing). We're also getting Valentines squared away and going to start a run to the press and radio stations. Getting ideas and products into their hands will have us (hopefully) well positioned for orders!Do you sell at any of your local markets or are you online-delivery only?Good luck in your endeavor Dawn and I hope we can swap stories and ideas as we evolve further! :D

Thanks for the feedback, that always helps. They can mix and match, on another page you can pick and choose, because it wasn't shown on the first page we are adding a line on the bottom of the OUR TRUFFLES page so people can mix and match, thanks for pointing that out. I let people choose what they like, since everyone's taste is so different.Do you have your own business or just like to experiment?

Very clean, very easy to use. Looks nice Dawn. I have a business question; how did you decide to go with individual boxes vs some mix and match? Do you do that locally? I'd love to pick your brain as another up and comer . :) Feel free to PM.
