Kirkland — Local Kirkland start-up gets boost via a
splashy recommendation in this month’s Men’s Health magazine.
“Getting national attention nowadays given the blizzard of messages is
quite a challenge, especially for a small west coast business” notes
Kirklander Carl Bryant, owner of MrThoughtful. “I surely hope this gives
the business an extra boost, especially after the holidays” he added.
The article appears in this month’s issue of Men’s Health.
MrThoughtful.com allows men to manage the process of buying and giving
greeting cards, creating an automated ‘greeting-card agent’ which will
select and purchase cards for his select friends and family. Cards and
envelopes are sent directly to the guy for adding personal notes and
delivery. The customer tells the MrThoughtful program what cards he
needs and when he needs them. The customer then receives them on a
quarterly basis and even gets an e-mail or a text notification that
amounts to: “Hey, thoughtful guy, your wife’s birthday is next
Wednesday.” The men can then reach into the drawer and grab the card,
adding personal thoughts, or most likely, simply his name.
MrThoughtful.com is the first online endeavor of Thoughtful People, LLC
which has grand plans to include the fairer sex once mankind has been
made better. Operating out of a Houghton office and garage, it is the
work of Carl Bryant, a veteran of dot-coms, primarily in the
marketing-services area.
