Rethinking Shipping Confirmation Emails.... or not.... haha!

Those of you who shop or sell on Etsy will know that there is a shipping confirmation email that is sent with each order.... written by the seller and sent via Etsy when the item ships. I always use this to let the buyer know that their order is on the way and, of course, as one more way to thank them.

But this goes above and beyond, and is the greatest thing since sliced bread!! 



Ha ha -- sliced bread!


My cousin ordered a CD (old school he says....) and got this email....


"Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.
A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure it was in the best possible condition before mailing. Our world-renowned packing specialist lit a local artisan candle and a hush fell over the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money can buy.
We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in our private CD Baby jet on this day, September 15, 2015.
We hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. In commemoration, we have placed your picture on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're all exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Sigh...
We miss you already. We'll be right here at http://cdbaby.com/, patiently awaiting your return."

Is that priceless or what!!

So what do you think?
Should I reword my confirmation emails?
LOL!

That's amazing! I think that rewording is a great idea - let us know what you come up with!

Well, it certainly gets your attention and makes you remember the company. They might just be on to something :)

Ha! That's funny. I definitely don't have a humorous shipping confirmation email, but I do send an actual email in addition to the Etsy-generated one.

That was awesome! I think I need to do something like that.
