Traditionally, the change in seasons has been accompanied by a change in the temperature; a change in the flowers that are growing; even the nature of the adverts on television (Adverts for summer holidays - ah yes it must be Boxing Day).
Since starting Chic Aid, I am able to add the sale of crutches to this list. In the lead up to Christmas, I find that the most popular crutches are Ellipse crutches in black with a red cuff. In spring, my most popular colours are the more delicate, pastel colours; pink, lilac, pastel green. In summer, my most popular style of crutch are the IZP folding crutches – they can be stowed in the overhead locker on planes, or even put in suitcases folded up.
I often hear from customers who are looking forward to getting their new, coloured crutches to take on holiday or to use at a wedding or another special occasion. These are the most common times for family snaps to be taken, so with this in mind, I am establishing a Chic Aid customer photo gallery. I am hoping to receive photographs from customers that show them using their Chic Aid crutches.
If you have any photographs of yourself with the coloured crutches that you bought from Chic Aid that you would be happy to have included in the gallery, please send them to me at a JPEG file at ChicAideKate@AOL.com.
