Who are Senior Shopping Network customers? You might just be surprised...We were.
While our primary focus has been those of us in our "next 50," we have found our customers
range in age from the 20's to over 90. For instance, Kathleen, a retired accountant in Gainesville,
Florida, is a loyal, repeat SSN customer, as is her granddaughter and namesake, a third grade
teacher who lives in Ft. Collins, Colorado. But here's how it all began...
If we were to write the story of how Senior Shopping Network (SSN) came to be, the title of the
story would be Lunch at the Painted Pony in St. George, Utah, for that's where it all began. While spending the morning
with Grandma, the conversation turned to how difficult it is for her and her friends to conveniently
acquire quality products at affordable prices. It simply isn't within their ability or desire to spend a day
comparison shopping from store to store to find the best deals. And who wants to take time away from
an active adult lifestyle of travel, golf, fishing, volunteering, part-time work or just well deserved relaxation
with a good book to go out and shop around? Little did we know at that time but a seed had been planted.
Next stop for our family was the Painted Pony Restaurant.
After studying the menu and placing our orders, conversation didn't just flow, it burst forth. Ideas seemingly
came from every direction about how we could be a family-owned and operated business dedicated to
providing quality products at affordable prices delivered to our customer's doorsteps. The seed that was planted while visiting
Grandma was nurtured at lunch at The Painted Pony and soon after, the concept of the Senior Shopping Network was born.
Senior Shopping Network began as a catalog business, but we quickly realized we could more rapidly respond
to our customers requests by placing more emphasis on our website. After our first year, we also realized we
needed to expand our market exposure and find a way to serve more people. We decided Senior Shopping
Network needed to become just that, a network. As we had done in our catalogs, we have chosen to continue
to include articles of interest and important product information on the SSN website. And, finally, another "plus"
in doing business on the Internet...we will be conserving a resource, paper!
Our family began Senior Shopping Network with the motto: Things You Need, Discount Prices, Delivered to You.
