 Four Simple Health and Diet Tips

The latest diet fad and new age trend may spark your interest - but nothing beats simple good health. Looking to the past for inspiration, we are now following the simple diet and meal plans of our grandparents for less complicated and more healthy food options. Finding a fruit basket filled with simple unblemished fruit direct from the markets is the ideal way to keep in touch with natural, wholesome goodness.

Here's some easy to follow tips to keep your diet simple and healthy.

Look back at what your grandparents ate.
Most likely they did not start their meal preparation with jars and cans of sauces and a flavour base as they are now called - but instead real ingredients and simple flavours. Whist there is a place for thick sauces and decadent toppings - there is also a clean simplicity in presenting fresh food without added extras.

Sometimes the food itself doesn't need to be embellished and improved upon - like steamed broccoli is just perfect the way it is - no need for a slathering of butter. In the same way the simple gesture of offering a get well hamper for delivery to John Hunter Hospital can be just the tonic for a battered ego once you are laid up in the ward. No need for fancy balloons or trinkets - just the simple honesty of fresh fruit and a genuine personal message.

How do I send a Fruit Basket to say Get Well Soon?

 You know the feeling - when a member of your staff is off work with a serious medical complaint and you have been given the responsibility of arranging a fruit gift.

You do a quick online search and all you come up with a florists and affiliate sites.  The florists try hard, but the basket is small and the fruit included you can count on one hand, whilst the affiliate sites pass on your order to the nearest local and take a big chunk of your money for the privilege.

So what to do?

Imagine if there was a dedicated fruit basket specialist who ships across Sydney with market fresh fruit?

Imagine if your fruit basket was literally brimming with fresh fruit - you see, we buy our fruit in boxes, direct from the markets and with our best price guarantee, we don't have to be as miserly with the fruit - in fact, we love going overboard a little - we see it as advertising in the hamper you get.  And we all know how powerful word of mouth advertising is.

So keep your options open and make the switch for your next fruit basket or fruit hamper.

 

Sending Gourmet Hampers to Australia

Sending Gourmet Hampers to Australia

Sending a Gourmet Hamper to Australia? Have a friend or relative you want to impress with fine taste of the region gourmet food and wine? Here are a few things to consider so your hamper arrives at your recipient’s Australian address exactly as you intended.

Affiliate Programs. When you are ordering from overseas and you are sending a gift basket to Australia, you might be tempted to order through your local gift basket company, who will then forward the order through an international affiliate program. Whilst this is acceptable, it means your value for money is being seriously eroded before the Australian Hamper Business even gets your order. Simply because the affiliate who takes your order and passes it on usually takes between 10% and 15% of your money upfront as a referral fee.
Affiliate program members. Whilst many affiliate program members are reputable and have good records, too often they will send out a budget, on special gift basket filled with “similar to” items and substitutions to your recipient. This means what you originally ordered has been changed to suit the affiliate company’s stock and may well be vastly different to what you intended.
Order modification and adjustment. As noted above, there is little you can do to control what substitutions go on, and by the time your recipient receives the hamper it is too late to make any adjustments. So again it is not exactly what you wanted to send.

Ideally, you want to choose the exact make up of your gift basket and send what you pay for, not something that has been tricked up for you thousands of miles away. It is recommended to seek out a gourmet hamper company direct in Australia like www.huntervalleyhampers.com.au , who can cater for your unique circumstances and promise to deliver your gift basket exactly as requested.

To make a sensible choice, it is wise to make your search engine query very specific and detail some of the products you would like included. Of course include Australia in the query, and aim to choose a real website attached to a real gourmet gift basket company, not a high ranking affiliate program.

As an example, to send a unique taste of regional gourmet foods, it would be worthwhile typing in a particular wine region, or a particular geographical region where you would be sending the hamper. Again, be wary of local affiliate programs as you are just as likely to end up with an affiliate gift basket from outside the region with some key products from the region.

As a final note, it is always worth your while to type in specific terms into your search engine and look beyond the top page rank sites. Often there will be a boutique gourmet hamper business on the second or third page that specialises in hampers and gift baskets, not search engine optimisation or webpage design. These are the ones you want making your Australian gifts.
