New U.S. Postal Service Ad Campaign features San Francisco Salt Company

Out of 3,000 companies considered to be profiled in U.S. Postal Service’s latest advertising campaign, San Francisco Salt Company was one of only three chosen.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 20, 2012 - San Francisco Salt Company (SFSC), known for their extensive selection of spa salts and gourmet chef salts which they ship to customers all over the country, were selected to be a part of the United States Postal Service’s new promotion for their Flat Rate shipping service.

The new ad campaign profiles three growing businesses who are leading their niche market using U.S. Postal Services products. “I think the fact that we were chosen to be part of this campaign says a lot about our reputation, commitment to customer service, and quality of products. This year marks our 10 year anniversary, so being independently chosen by the U.S. Postal Service is a really proud moment for us that came at just the right time,” says Lee Williamson, founder of San Francisco Salt Company, which offers salts from around the globe including Dead Sea Salt, Himalayan Salt and Epsom Salt.

The new video campaign, which is currently available through the United States Postal Service YouTube channel, was filmed at two of the San Francisco Salt Company’s locations last month.

“We have been shipping with U.S. Postal Service since 2002 and their shipping system helps us keep things simple. We actually develop products with the size of the flat rate boxes in mind. It takes away a lot of the guess work while preparing shipments as we know what we’ll be able to fit in each box and how much it’s going to cost,” explains Williamson.

“Sea Salt in large volumes is quite heavy. The fact that we can fit twenty to twenty-five pounds in a single flat rate box and ship it to anywhere in the U.S. for the same rate whether it’s going to New York or Hawaii is great. This service has really been an integral part of our business,” Williamson adds. This cost effective shipping method also allows SFSC to offer free shipping on their website which for years had never been heard of in this industry due to the high weight of sea salt products says Williamson.

Bathing in natural sea salt is a wonderful way to get soft skin - but bathing isn’t the only way you can use sea salt. Bath salt made from sea salt is filled with minerals and nutrients which naturally occur in the ocean and are beneficial to our skin. Soaking with them is great, but you can also use the salts to scrub away rough dry skin and reveal softer, more supple skin underneath.

We have what we believe to be largest and most comprehensive collection of Dead Sea Salt information on the web.

Our Dead Sea Guide covers everything from facts about the Dead Sea to research information on the use of Dead Sea Salt for psoriasis.  Our Dead Sea resource section is the place to look for everything you needed to know about the Dead Sea.

Though you can find a lot of information on the web about the Dead Sea and its salt, a lot of the information has been badly written or plagiarized, making it difficult to find the facts. So, check out our Dead Sea Guide to find answers to your questions about the Dead Sea and Dead Sea Salt.

Specifically interested in getting more information about Psoriasis Treatments using Dead Sea Salt? Be sure to also visit our new Psoriasis Treatment page for more in-depth coverage on this topic and to read testimonials from our customers who use Dead Sea Salt to treat their skin conditions.

Out of 3,000 companies that the US Postal Service profiled for their new advertising campaign, we were lucky enough to be one of only 3 selected. We think that says a lot about our reputation, commitment to customer service, and quality products. The US Postal service are obviously proud to do business with us and we are also proud to have them as a valued supplier. Click on the play button below to see our video.

You’ve probably heard it before. You tell a friend you took a nice, long relaxing bath, and her response is: “But when you take a bath, aren’t you just soaking in your own dirt?”

Let’s examine this argument for a minute. Chances are you’re not squeaky clean when you first step into the tub. You lie there and soak – for 15, 20 minutes. There’s a ring on the tub when you’re done. Ewww, gross.

But hold on - the ring on the edge of your tub is a good thing, and here’s why. Bathing is an incredible way to cleanse your skin – much more effective than showering. When you take a shower, you quickly rub some soap on your skin, rinse, and get out. Thing is, you’ve only washed the outermost layers of your skin. Bathing in warm water, preferably with bath salts, draws impurities from deep inside your pores, cleansing you on a much deeper level than a simple shower. The dirt around your tub is dirt that has left your body – dirt that probably wouldn’t come out after a quick shower.

The warm water opens up your pores. The water, enhanced with the minerals and nutrients in your bath salts, is able to seep into nooks and crannies in your skin that water from a shower won’t hit. Oil, soap residue, pollutants and impurities rise to the surface and are drawn out and are gone forever. To answer your question, all the gunk that has left your skin will not come back in. Once it’s out, it’s out – and down the drain for good.
