Reviews help to build trust with potential buyers. When website visitors see a multitude of 5-star customer reviews, they feel more confident in their decision to shop. Genuine customer reviews often lead to increased conversion rates and higher sales.

Participating in a digital training programme tailored to the needs of small businesses has helped Everything Dinosaur learn more about the use of AI. Team members have been working with Digital Cheshire and learning about some of the ways in which Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help small companies. It’s not all one way. For example, Sue agreed to be a speaker and panel member at a recent training seminar. It’s one of the ways that we try to help other businesses. In addition, we provided an article detailing the support to businesses provided by Digital Cheshire and their partners. The article has been posted up on Digital Cheshire’s website.

Why Does Digital Training Matter?

It is important for small businesses to develop the appropriate skills. For example, learning how digital marketing can help them expand and attract new customers. Furthermore, social media can be used to connect with and inform both customers and potential customers. It is also important to have an optimised and fully functioning website. The Everything Dinosaur website is safe and secure. Moreover, it has been optimised to support customers who access it via a mobile phone as well as other devices.

Meeting and networking with other business owners also helps. Delegates at the training courses can pick up tips and receive advice. Participants can learn from each other’s experiences. For example, Mike from Everything Dinosaur has been mentoring several local businesses as part of an initiative entitled “The Board That You Cannot Afford”.

How Have Businesses Changed Since the Training

Real, tangible developments have been delivered. We have heard how the effective use of social media has helped small firms. Updates to the websites have led to improvements in mobile responsiveness and an enhanced user experience. In addition, more companies are feeling confident about using AI, and delegates have been able to expand their networks.

We try to encourage people to learn new skills. To invest in themselves and their teams. Developing new skills and embracing change is vital in competitive, ever-changing environments.

Hopefully, the advice that Sue and Mike have provided has helped. Furthermore, Sue’s participation on an advisory panel and speaking at events has helped to encourage other would-be entrepreneurs.

Everything Dinosaur is approaching its third decade of being in business. Our little business has developed a formidable reputation for customer service and for providing sensible purchasing advice. The other day, we were asked for our top tips when it comes to shopping on-line during the run up to the festive season. This got us thinking. Normally, we are providing information to customers about prehistoric animal models and dinosaur toys. However, we are always up for a challenge, and we prepared a short list of our top tips.

The Joys of Dinosaur Toys – Our Top Tips for On-line Shopping

• Start early!

It is never too early to start shopping for a special occasion. There is a lot of uncertainty surrounding global logistics at the moment. Our advice is to begin your shopping early, after all, you don’t want items to sell out and for your loved ones to miss out.

• Make a List

Start by creating a list of presents you want to buy. This approach keeps you organised and focused. It also prevents impulse purchases. Even those tempting ones that you can barely resist but keep disciplined and stick to your list.

• Set a Budget

Work out your spending limit. Sticking to a budget helps you avoid overspending. Budgeting helps keep your finances healthy.

Check Customer Reviews and Comments

• Check Customer Reviews and Feedback

Read customer reviews to assess product quality and seller reliability. This practice can save you from potential disappointments. Look for Feefo reviews or similar tools that provide genuine and verified customer feedback. Websites can post up fake reviews. They can be difficult to spot. However, independent review companies post up only genuine feedback and comments from actual purchasers.

Everything Dinosaur has received thousands of reviews. Reviews are published on the company’s website, and they are helpful and informative. In addition, Everything Dinosaur has won several awards for its excellent customer service.

• Plan for Shipping Times

Please keep in mind shipping times. The recommending posting date for most international surface mail services for the festive season has already passed. During the holiday season delivery networks are going to become very congested. We recommend that you shop early to ensure gifts arrive on time for the big day. We supply lots of dinosaur toys to children, we do all we can to ensure a swift despatch and a speedy delivery.

• Stay Safe and Secure

Take care when shopping on-line. Remember the old adage – “if it sounds to good too be true, it probably isn’t true”. Always shop from reputable sites and use secure payment methods. Look for “https://” in the URL to protect your information. If unsure, send the company an email, or give them a ring. Contact details should be clearly displayed and a chat with team members can help to put your mind at ease.

With these tips, you’ll prepare to tackle your holiday shopping with ease! Happy shopping!

In the competitive world of e-commerce, maintaining a clutter-free website is crucial for attracting and retaining customers. This is especially true for niche markets, such as dinosaur toys. When you tidy up your website and remove out-of-production or retired items, you create a more streamlined shopping experience. Team members at Everything Dinosaur have been carefully checking the site. New updates are planned and prior to their implementation, retired items, no longer available have been removed.

New Stock of Dinosaur Toys Due This Month

We are going to have a busy October. This month, we are expecting deliveries from PNSO, Haolonggood and Beasts of the Mesozoic. More stocks of prehistoric plush and dinosaur toys are also due to arrive. Prior to their arrival, time was spent this week checking the website’s functionality. It’s all about giving visitors a good experience.

A clean and tidy website enhances the user experience. Shoppers can easily find the dinosaur toys and other items they are interested in. Most purchases are undertaken in less than two minutes. An efficient, well laid out website helps customers.

Visit the award-winning Everything Dinosaur website:Everything Dinosaur and Dinosaur Toys.

Tidying up your website reflects your company’s commitment to quality. When customers see that you care about them, they are more likely to trust your brand and return for future purchases. We have successfully completed the tidying up of the website and optimised it for our customers.

In summary, regularly updating your website by removing retired items, particularly in niche markets like dinosaur toys, is essential. It enhances user experience, improves search engine results, and builds brand trust—key factors for success in today’s digital marketplace.

Highlighting Prehistoric Animal Models

Highlighting dinosaurs and other prehistoric animal models in a slideshow is helpful for the audience. It showcases unique features and details that attract interest. In addition, the audience can be informed about new figures being added to ranges. For example, the Beasts of the Mesozoic slide highlighted five new additions to this range, including the albino Zuniceratops figure.

The slides were quite easy to create. Visual presentations engage attendees and spark discussions. They help collectors appreciate the diversity of models and their significance.

Everything Dinosaur is supporting the amazing TetZooCon event once again this year. The company is a sponsor of this fantastic event, now in its eleventh year. TetZooCon is an annual meeting centred around the world-famous blog Tetrapod Zoology. There will be presentations, book signings, art demonstrations, discussion panels, workshops and talks from leading exponents in their field. This event gives us the opportunity to highlight some of the prehistoric animal models that we stock. For example, the slideshow we have compiled will include PNSO dinosaur models.

The image (above) shows one of the slides from our TetZooCon presentation. It features the recently introduced PNSO Tyrannotitan and Wuerhosaurus dinosaur figures.

PNSO Dinosaur Models Including Megalosaurus bucklandii

This year, 2024, marks the 200th anniversary of the first, formal scientific description of a dinosaur. Megalosaurus bucklandii was described in 1824 (Buckland). Megalosaurus was a large, bipedal predator that could reach lengths of up to nine metres. Characterised by its robust body, sharp teeth, and powerful limbs, Megalosaurus was likely an apex predator in its ecosystem. Its scientific description in 1824 played a pivotal role in the early understanding of dinosaurs, marking the beginning of palaeontology as a scientific discipline.

It seemed fitting that we should include a slide featuring the PNSO Megalosaurus model in our presentation.

Best wishes to the organisers and to everyone attending TetZooCon 2024.
