convince tike to ship overseas!!!

Comment Published at 20:0420:0421 comments21 comments243 Visits243 VisitsReport

Please help me convince 'tike' to expand the contest to include all countries (USA, UK, Canada, South Africa etc etc) not just Australia.

I have just placed a call (5 mins ago) with them and they are thinking about it, but I think I will need your support on this one.

Can you please add a comment below. Anything! Stuck for ideas? How about any of the following... Write about how great tike is, why they should expand it to all countries, where you are based (ie: country)and why you need a tike...

Also please email all Minti members to tell them about this blog post and get them to come here and help me convince tike to EXPAND IT!

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

My little girl is almost 2 and she is so desperate to catch up with her 6 year old sister I even heard her say "bike" for the first time today! So the needs a tike, to give her the flying start she needs!!! Come on, Englad isnt so far away really - my DH is waiting for his Aussie hats to arrive by surface mail that he bought off ebay - it's a global marketplace out there!!!

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

HEY... minti has been promoting Tike BIG time, so I think it only fair that this comp is global, plus we want one!!!!!

Also how do I explain to a 2 year old that we've been sending them to all our minti friends but it is unlikely that anyone is going to get a real one unless they live on the other side of the world....

She'll have us all emmigrating by the end of the week!!!!!

So deliver to the world...

PLEASE!!!!!!

LOL lisa xxxx.

 Would be great if Tike was to include other countries in this fabulous competiton. A few Tikes popping up in other countries & word of mouth could double their business. 

Big things grow from small seeds!

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

that's great feedback everyone :)

hope we can still get some more comments from everyone.

what i am trying to convince them is to increase the number of bikes in the contest each month and to include the rest of the world in the contest. i am not so sure i can convince them to expand their 'business' worldwide (yet), but more expand the competition to include the rest of the world ;)

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

How does that saying go?  I am so good at misquoting!!  If you have a great product the world is at your doorstep.  Is that anywhere close to that saying?? LOL  Canada is sooo forgotten,even the United States doesn't allow us Canadians to enter most contests!!

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

I think it would be great advertisement to have someone in the U.S. (or other countries). Personally, I haven't heard of balance bikes until last year and I only saw one brand that both my husband and I were considering. I think it would be great to have a competitor so people can make a choice.

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

tike is so trendy so aussie. imagine if one of our buddies "overseas " were to win one. what a talking point..

remember what bmx did in the 70s and 80s?  tike would be the envy of  all tike will be to "bike what barbie is to "doll"

how could you not  want one? it has to be authentic just like ug boots

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

I am going to be honest here in that, although wooden bikes are availiable readily in the UK and Europe, none of them have the ecological ethic that Tike has. Parents do worry at the Idea of so much wood being used, and where it is sourced and is it sustainable.

Tike offers that peace of mind, and is very competatively priced. Had Tike been availiable to me when I was buying wooden bikes, I would have jumped at them. If Tike chooses to ship over seas, I for one will be spreading the word far and wide.

Please Tike, give us in the rest of the world the oppertunity to buy an ethical product we can trust.

Luv Winnie.xxxx

Re: convince tike to ship overseas!!!

Shiping around the world can only be an bonus to any busniss.  With pay pal payments transactions are simple.  we purchase many things from online co's from the other side of the globe.  Shipping costs should be easy to find out, and itemised on there web page.

Every one likes a good, well made product.   These trikes look great.

Do they do on line orders?  If someone overseas won one and their friends wanted to buy one they could get it online.

It is better for their business if they ship worldwide. These Tikes look great & I think all parents would like them, all over the world.
