Testimonials from Advertisers

"When Wendy first mentioned accepting paid advertising, I was crushed, because her glowing review of Nature's Gift oils when she was "an unbiased observer" had already brought us a lot of traffic. I'd have preferred she not change a thing. But...something had to pay for AromaWeb's bandwidth. Of course, I had to sign up immediately. Not sure if I was her first paying client, but definitely one of the very first. Through the years, AromaWeb has proven to be the only consistently profitable paid advertising for Nature's Gift. Wendy is a joy to work with; I count on her creativity when I need a new banner, etc. I know traffic that comes from AromaWeb is seeking what we have to offer. It's a perfect fit, and I can't believe we are coming up on 10 years of "togetherness."

Wendy's Response: In its infancy, AromaWeb did not accept advertising. During that time, I featured objective reviews of several aromatherapy retailers/suppliers. Nature's Gift had an outstanding reputation, and Marge was a mentor and huge source of valuable information to me during my initial journey into aromatherapy. Nature's Gift was amongst the companies that I reviewed during that period, and it is that review that Marge remarks about here. Although Marge wasn't AromaWeb's very first advertiser, she was AromaWeb's second, having missed the distinction of being AromaWeb's first advertiser on AromaWeb by only one hour. AromaWeb's first few advertising positions sold quickly.]

"We have been advertising on AromaWeb for several years, and we're glad that we do. When I check our Google Analytic Reports of our Web site referrals, AromaWeb is always listed within the top 3 of sites for referring customers to us. And the visitors that come to us from AromaWeb stay for a longer time than other referring sites! We know too that many of your referrals purchase from us as many tell us they found us through AromaWeb. Thanks again for having this great service. We plan on our continued relationship with you for many years to come!"

Donna Maria Coles Johnson (dM), Founder and President of the Indie Business Network included the following lovely comments at the conclusion of her interview/feature article with me back on August 14, 2006. (Read the entire archived article via archive.org here):

"...Some people run their online businesses as if they have no personality to speak of. Wendy is not one of those people. Instead, she understands that the tone of her site is set by her personality, and that even if site visitors and advertisers never meet her in person, they are banking on her personality, as reflected at the site, to enhance their lives. Wendy is a genuinely pleasant human being with a kind and caring personality and a positive disposition. These traits serve her well. It has been a pleasure working with her over the past 7 years (Wendy, it has been that long??!), and am looking forward to many more.

Please visit Wendy's Aroma Web site to enjoy wonderful original content about all aspects of aromatherapy. And if you're lucky enough to catch her at a good time, make sure to ask her to design a graphic that you can use to promote your business. She's talented, efficient and a pleasure to work with!"
