History
In 1986, the business operated as a small ad agency and production company providing advertising, media planning and direct marketing to local businesses. Key services focused on writing and concepting projects, such as direct mail campaigns with envelope snipes, brochure inserts, order forms with product information and long, persuasive cover letters. We offered our expertise writing copy for direct mail campaigns, company sales brochures, salesletters, response ads for newspaper and magazines, annual reports, radio spots, video scripts, email and web site landing pages.
In 1988, the company with a growing staff of four moved to a quaint office near Deep Elum in downtown Dallas. The arts district environment suited the team's creative side and the business flourished, adding four creative professionals to staff. Initial services focused on direct marketing communications.
The team applied their own innovative direct response strategies to direct mail campaigns and brochures for mail order and catalogs, which resulted in exceptional response rates in the 6-11% range at a time when 2% was the norm. In 1995, the company dropped the name Copywriters, which seemed to reflect a freelance copywriter impression. It was at this time that we moved the business to North Dallas.
"Over the years, we received many requests for ecommerce websites from startups. Most ecommerce products in the marketplace were either shared software with limited flexibility, or the admin seller needed to do quite a bit of modification to customize the design of their site, which added to the cost. We answered our customers call with Shopkeeper USA... One easy solution with an affordable price tag. Planning started in 2002."
