Azure Story Time!
Until 1997, our catalogs and sales
flyers had been basic price lists. No
pictures, no ads. Useful, but boring.
Then, just for fun, we included one
graphic in a sale flyer. It was a
black-n-white line-drawing clip-art
picture of a bottle of natural bath-
room cleaner.

When the sale took effect, that bath-


room cleaner sold like crazy! David
Stelzer came up to the office after
pulling orders the first day of the sale
and said, "That picture really worked!
The bathroom cleaner is flying out of
here!"

From that experience, we realized


the value of *showing* our customers
what we're offering. We bought one
of the very early digital cameras
available, and started taking pictures
of all of our products.

Now we offer our very


own bathroom cleaner
(specifically, toilet bowl
cleaner) that works excep-
tionally well and is ultra-
safe for the environment.
We're very proud of it, and
hope you'll try it... and
here's a picture!
