TAMPA, Fla. — Triad Digital Media, the leader in retail online media, today announced that it has created the Guy’s Guide to Flowers(SM) for 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, INC. (Nasdaq: FLWS), the world's largest florist and gift shop. The guide is designed to help men quickly and easily find the perfect flowers and gifts to celebrate any type of occasion, including “getting out of the doghouse.”
Launched just in time for this month’s National Get Out of the Doghouse Day, the interactive one-stop shopping guide offers such features as “The Apologizer,” a tool that provides gift ideas to help men make amends with the special people in their lives. In addition, men can find unique gift ideas and helpful tips for making a heartfelt apology.
“These types of fun and useful interactive campaigns are a highly effective way to engage consumers and promote brands directly on a retail site. They add entertainment value to the shopping experience, they keep the customer on the site, and they ultimately drive revenue for the retailer. In this case, 1-800-FLOWERS.COM® scored a win with men who visit their site, giving them the valuable advice and recommendations they’ll need to either stay in or get back in the good graces of their wives or girlfriends,” said Greg Murtagh, Triad Digital Media’s CEO.
