The executive tour

Beneficial to our visitors, because those who clickthrough are actually searching to buy the plants in question. Providing the PlantScout service answers the "where-to-buy?" question asked each year by thousands of users, turning them into happy consumers and repeat visitors.

Over the course of the next year, you can expect to tap into this large market of interested buyers and generate hundreds, or even thousands, of new sales.

Here are some screenshots of how PlantScout looks to your customers:

Figure 1: Prospective customers land on one of more than 100,000 PlantFiles information pages via search engines, links from within DG, or from links emailed from a friend. Your listing is linked from a page such as this, which is viewed by thousands of people each day. Figure 2: When customers click on the vendors' link (shown in figure 1), they are shown the list of companies selling this plant. When your company is among those listed, customers can then click to go directly to your homepage and purchase the plant, seed or bulb. Figure 3: Users can also search directly within PlantScout. The search results will show all plants matching their search, including cultivars and varieties. The links in the second column take them to your website, where they may purchase this product.

Our simple PlantScout management interface permits easy entry of your products. If you already know the Latin name of your plants, adding each plant is done in a few keystrokes. Alternatively, we will happily upload your spreadsheet or Word file with your inventory information, for no extra fee. If you have no spreadsheet or file, our staff is ready to retrieve your plant inventory information from your website.
