Ionicsalts - We're still here...

Three and a half months later. So much has been happening, this blog has been neglected as a result.

We recently received another 70,000 lbs of salt crystal product. The quality thus far is unmatched, seriously. There will soon be many new products hitting the website, as well as the ol' favorites. Blue and snow white salt lamps, new designs using two colors of salt, and we will be introducing Himalayan peloid with salt inclusion. This is mineral-rich mud from the bottom of the mines known for it's tremendous natural care for skin. It's a great facial scrub. Additionally we'll soon have edible Himalayan salt crystal available. This is considered "gourmet" and completely wholesome, as opposed to regular, manufactured table salt.

Things are moving quickly, no change there. We have also reached the conclusion that we are the most plagiarized and pillaged salt lamp site on the Web. Every week we get more reports of lazy, shameless people taking our images and text to use on their own sites. We are vigilant in protecting our rights, and with the time and money we put into our product photos - it is required. On one hand, it's flattering to know we have the best site and images on the Internet for these products...as well as the most informative, well-written website; on the other hand this is business, and as such we must protect our assets. We have daily scans done for possible content infringment, because of this problem we have.

We are soon to roll-out an affiliate program of sorts too. This will allow people to sell our lamps with the need for warehousing, shipping, or inventory. If you're interested please send us an email at sales@ionicsalts.com...we will add you to the list for notification once it's alive.

We've recently doubled our warehouse space (again), and finally picked up a forkift of our own. This has opened up freight shipments for us....and wholesale is growing exponentially for us - so this is a good thing.

More coming later. Peace.
