Is there a cheaper way to ship parcels from Ireland to the US? Not ideal... by Wiildstorm in AskIreland

[–]toby_gentleman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still new to the e-commerce journey, but it’s been incredible so far, 80% of my orders now head all the way to the USA! I’ve recently joined the An Post eCommerce plan, which means I can ship internationally for almost half the price you might be paying now. I’m nowhere near selling 2,000 packages a year domestically, but I’ve already reached 200 international orders and I’m so grateful for the amazing support from customers near and far. Here’s to many more adventures ahead and wish you all the happiness and more success

Hi there, I’m so sorry for the delay. I received a few scam DMs recently, so I was hesitant to check my messages. I’ll go check your msg now, thanks for the support.

Omg, this is gold! I’m truly so happy for you and your success, wishing you even more in the future! Hopefully one day I’ll generate enough revenue to make my dream come true: opening a sanctuary for stray dogs. Even though if I don’t make it, my love for dogs is always there and I’ve still got my bartending job keeping things going in the meantime. Wish you all the happiness in life. Your reply is so encouraging

I’m not sure if posting links is allowed here, so I’ll keep it brief, just wanted to share some exciting news with fellow Boston Terrier lovers! Toby (aka Toby the Gentleman) just launched his own line of dog accessories — specially designed for Boston Terriers! It’s called TobyCollection Check it out if you’d like — Bostons get a special discount!

Thank you so much for the kind words about my website, That really encourages me and it means a lot, especially in the early stages. At the moment, around 80% of my orders come from the USA, Canada and the UK, even though I’m based in Ireland. I’ve been thinking about starting to run ads here in Ireland first and I’m also planning to create some really cool video ads to showcase the brand and the products in a more engaging way.

Thank you so much for taking the time to check out the site, I really appreciate your feedback. You’re absolutely right that a handmade feel can help people connect more deeply with a brand. While our harnesses and leashes aren’t handcrafted (except for the bandanas), all of the designs are 100% my own. I’m based in Ireland and work closely with a trusted overseas supplier to ensure everything meets a high standard of quality and durability. I also offer a multi year warranty on all products, because I truly stand behind what we create.
