For many shoppers, the holiday season brings as much stress as it does enjoyment. Malls across the U.S. are overcrowded with people. This means heavy traffic outside and long waits inside. With these conditions, it is no wonder that many would-be customers are searching out alternative methods for checking items off their Holiday shopping list. The internet has proved to be a favorite among convenience minded consumers, however, not everyone is convinced. Many customers are wary of the amount of time it will take for their order to arrive, especially with a deadline as important as Christmas looming in the future.

This fear is not unmerited since the amount of time it takes to process and ship the order can vary from vendor to vendor. With this in mind, Ed and Alycia Shapiro, owners of the popular online kid’s store, SensoryEdge, took action. “We knew we had to do something to decrease the stress people feel when they’re shopping online.” After some thought, they decided to launch the Quick-Ship section on their website, www.sensoryedge.com. The Quick-ship page compiles a list of all the products SensoryEdge keeps in its warehouse and comes with a guarantee that all products placed before 12 noon will have same day or next business day shipping. This allows for delivery within 4 to 7 days and a sense of piece of mind for the online consumer.

The choice for speed need not limit the other choices that the buyer must make. There are over 200 items ready for same day or next business day shipping which means a large selection for holiday shoppers. Quality is another non-negotiable as far as Alycia is concerned. SensoryEdge made sure that it included some of the most popular and trusted toy brands in its list. Companies such as Melissa and Doug, Plan Toys, and KidKraft are part of the pretend play and educational toy fun ready for a place under a tree this year. With these factors in place, the quick and painless shopping experience can become a reality for any customer.

However, this convenience is not only available during this year’s holiday season. the early reaction has been so positive that the quick-ship section will be kept year round. Customers have made use of the section for birthdays, special occasions and not so special occasions alike. Alycia firmly believes that “people deserve a reliable online shopping experience no matter what time of year it is”, and SensoryEdge has done its best to ensure just that with every customer it serves.
