Answer:
<>Watch your pricing. Just a quick check of a couple of your products (Maxam) demonstrates significant differences between you and your competitors. Suggestion: if you are going to be pricier, offer an enticement, such as free shipping. Your site is well laid out and easy to use.keep it uncomplicated.
The addition of culinary cutlery, especially some unusual and high-quality items, might help. Good luck.
if you have fine cutlery..ie chefs knifes..then maybe you may want to cater to the culinary world.go to cooking conventions, advertise in trade mags, etc.also, get the kids while they are in culinary school.go to privately owned restaurants and show them what youve got to offer. its it the consumer you are after, extend your line to all kitchen ware.the women like a one stop shop like williams and sonoma, but not so expensive..please
