CHATHAM, Va., Feb. 29, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- It's often said that everyone has a twin. Whether or not you believe this to be true, MyTwinn.com makes it possible. The idea originated with an emergency room physician who found the dolls to be especially comforting for young patients, as well as a great boost to their self-esteem. The dolls are fully customizable for everything from face sculpture to freckles, and are certain to become a favored keepsake for years to come.
My Twinn recently decided to sell internationally largely due to continued increasing inquiries from customers outside of the US. They selected global e-Commerce specialist, Bongo International, to make this process as smooth as possible with the understanding the that shift from domestic to international market can encompass a tangled web of details.
Historically, dolls are universally popular. My Twinn is currently the only provider of this caliber of perfectly customized dolls, known as the Just-Like-Me-Doll™, designed for children aged 3-12 years. Customizable features include: a selection of face shapes crafted by master sculptors, nine eye color options, five skin tone options, ten hair color options, six hair length options, six hair texture options, five hair cut options, three bang options and the option of adding earrings or eyeglasses. The dolls retail for $149.00.
My Twinn's expertise lies in the quality products they create and maintain which has proven to be successful enough to reach international recognition. International e-Commerce offers Retailers growth that is not available anywhere else – if approached correctly. "We had no ability to ship internationally ourselves and Bongo provides an easy to use checkout that allows us to easily navigate the shipping and customs issues in each country," says Craig Currie, Senior Vice President of My Twinn.
The decision to work with Bongo was founded in Bongo's expertise in international expansion. At the most basic level, selling internationally involves shipping internationally and accepting various methods of payment. Bongo provides this to Retailers and much more. The latest solution known as Bongo Checkout offers a seamless customer experience, translation, full landed cost calculation, currency conversion, various payment options, and prevents any risk of fraud for Retailers.
