One reason shopping online proved so popular over this past holiday season was that the Web offered truly novel gifts, available nowhere at retail.
Here’s one example of such a site, the name of which could well describe a lot of marketing hype in general-Doodoo.com.
For $19.95, customers can send a gift assortment of, well, doo-doo to anyone they deem worthy. (The site suggests ex-girlfriends or boyfriends, for example.)
Doodoo.com includes a toll-free number, anonymous testimonials and suggestive graphics and sound effects as well as a tag line stressing that “Supplies are NOT limited but act now anyway.” At press time, the site listed 65,000 visitors so far.
No word if heart-shaped boxes are available for Valentine’s Day.
