The Tip is 'Before You Buy' Made in America Secrets tries to send you to internet stores that sell the Made In USA products you searched for. We try to link you directly to only Made In USA products, however sometimes this does not happen. When you click our banner / link ads the store we link you to may show you products that are imported alongside those that are Made In USA. We all know most retailers sell products that are made and come from all over the world including the USA. Therefore, our tip is look at the details before you buy the product. This is true for both brick and mortar stores and internet retailers. Any Made in America store that represents selling only Made in USA products can be believed but check them anyway. They will appreciate your help. Here is a great example of a very reputable Made in America Store. Our site is similar to a few others that I call "Indexers". These sites offer lists like an index. These indexes relate companies to the products they sell. There are a few, like this site, that provide an index of Made in America companies and their products. You can use the indexes (like I have done at times) to find a particular product and the companies that make it. Our site has many features like our buy tips that are unique and valuable. We add buying tips regularly so don't forget to check them out, as they will help you find and buy great Made In America products. Some of these sites are a good resource if you are looking for the manufacturer of a specific product. However you should first check their accuracy because some are not maintained as well as others. Some allow inaccurate and inappropriate ads, others like Made In America Secrets maintain the accuracy of their indexes and do not allow inappropriate advertisements. We continually try to improve our links and we solicit your help and ideas to make our site even better. You can contact us by email, mail, or phone and we will try our very best to respond promptly. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by A Train Story The quote right above this paragraph was made by our rep at Capital Printing. Deidra walked A Train Story into the world of printed children's illustration books. So many wonderful accidents and collaboration happened to get us to the price we could afford our 10,000 book pressing in South Austin. Capital Printing, and their partners, made it happen. If you want something, you have to act to get the universe started in your direction. I took a shot and sent some of those books to the Smithsonian and Reading Rainbow, a few years ago. They both liked the book. We didn't necessarily get lucky. We worked hard to have the book we have. Mom wrote for over 20 years, almost 2 years of addressing the illustrations, months on post-art graphics getting ready to print. We chose to print the book because we knew that it would attract the attention and help we needed to turn this into something bigger. We didn't know what that would be. It ended up that being in print was required and we were given a contract. Levar Burton chose to narrate my mom's first book and his Reading Rainbow Tech Team has turned A Train Story into an interactive eBook app. Someone pinch me! |
