I love it when a small business tells their story in a compelling way. Here is one terrific example.

I recently ordered from NutsOnline.com [UPDATE: Now they’re Nuts.com] because I loved the way they presented their family history all over their website. Their fun personality shines through in every product description, in the testimonials on every single page, and in the emails they send.
Read their family business history story.
Takeaway for any small town business:
Tell your unique story. It’s something no big business can compete with.
By the way, the chocolate almonds are delicious. Really, really delicious.

Nice!
Thanks! It’s fun to share the good stories.
I’m lusting after that big green bag :D
Oh, man, it is SO good! :D
Hi there, Becky! My name is Katie Ide, and I’m in charge of blogger outreach for NutsOnline. I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to spread the word about our site via this wonderful blog post. We’re so proud of our family business, and we think we have the most loyal and enthusiastic customers around! Thanks again, and have a nutty day!
Katie, thank you so much for dropping by. Everyone loves this story!
Katie, we LOVE NutsOnLine. The dried cranberries are like nothing you’ve bought in the grocery store. At Christmas our family bakes cookies for 120 people, and all our nuts/fruits/oatmeal/chips/choc espresso beans are from them. Killer good.
Thanks for adding your feedback, Carla.
