We are lauching our affiliate program!  For all of our friends out there, we are offering you the chance to sign up with us as affiliates.  What this means is that if someone comes to our store from an affiliate link that you provide to them, you earn commissions on the sales.  This is subject of course to the terms and conditions of the affiliate program that are available at the signup link.  So, if you’ve got a blog, a web site or just a bunch of friends that you could post a link to on facebook, twitter or some other kind of social network, you can earn either credit to put towards your own hot sauce want list or cold hard cash.  The signup link is located here (the terms and conditions are linked to at the bottom of that page).  If you have any questions regarding the affiliate program, please email us at info@frommildtowild.com and we’re glad to answer them for you.

Hope that everyone is getting thawed out ok for Spring!  It’s a great time of year for getting the grill fired up again (we’ve been doing that a lot lately), and for those of you who are fans of the Bone Suckin’ Sauce line of products, we’ve reduced our prices across the board and brought some new items in from them as well.  You can find them all here.

That’s all for now.  Don’t forget to check us out on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/FromMildtoWild to keep up with the day to day news and provide us your feedback.

Holiday News

Greetings everyone!

I’ve got a couple of things to let you know about in this news update.  First, we have posted our holiday cutoff mailing dates.  Your order has to be placed on or before the posted date for the shipping method that you choose.  A chart of the dates can be found on the main page of the hot sauce shop here.  I’ve chosen a reference city in each province to provide dates for.  If you need a date for another location not posted there, please email us and include the postal code and we’ll get to the inquiries as fast as possible in this busy season.

Secondly, I want to announce a new product line that’s just joined the From Mild to Wild lineup.  We are proud to announce the newest addition to the Canadian content of the store: Amiel’s Island Fire.  Brewed and bottled in Cardigan, PEI, Amiel will become a household name for those of you who like it HOT!  We’ve even got a few bottles of his special edition Red Dirt Revenge, which is a 1 million scoville pepper extract that’s very attractively package.  Check out all of the products of his that we’ve added so far right here.  We look forward to expanded coverage of the product line in the new year.

Lastly, I want to mention to those of who are holiday deal seekers that we’ve got an offering through the Holiday Shoppe that’s been together by Wagjag.com.  We’re offering a discount coupon where you can get $40 worth of purchasing power for only $20.  This is applicable towards all products in the online store except the Hot Sauce of the Month Club.  You can check out all the details of the deal here.

For anyone that was looking for anything to come back into stock, we’ve got almost all of what we’re going to have in stock to wrap up this year.  If you’re still looking for something that we usually have that you can’t find, drop us a line and I can let you know the status.

From Mild to Wild Hot Sauce Shop wishes you all the best in this holiday season!

Cheers,

Brian

From Mild to Wild June Newsletter

Hello everyone -

It’s been a while since I sent out a newsletter. My schedule got all thrown out of whack with the birth of our first child, a healthy baby boy, near the end of 2009. I’m working on getting back into coming out with regular newsletters again to keep everyone up to date with new products and promotions and all things related to spicy!

The first thing that I want to bring up is the new promotions that we’re going to be starting up on the Facebook page for From Mild to Wild Hot Sauce Shop.  From now until the end of June, simply throw a post into the June contest thread on the Discussions section of the Facebook page and your name will be entered into a random drawing.  This month we’re giving away a *1 Gallon Jug of Bone Suckin‘ Hot BBQ Sauce.*  That’ll keep you busy on the grill this summer!  Complete details of the giveaway are located in the discussion thread on the page.  Drop me a line if you’ve got any questions.

There are some more updates to page coming soon.  We’re bringing in some more new products in the near future, and I’ve got a couple that are just pending addition the web site in the next couple of days (including some cool T-shirts from Blair’s and the new Bone Suckin’ Hot Seasoning and Rub).

I just wanted to reconnect to let you all know that we’re still here!  Look for more in the near future.

Cheers,

Brian

End of summer updates and new product announcement

Hello everyone -

It’s been a busy summer for us because of a large home renovation project which has kept me away from writing things, but we have been busy with some special events and special products.  Just announced today is the new hot sauce for the band Hades, called Persephone’s Fire.  If you get into the Greek mythology of it, the symbolism is kind of neat.  Check out their press release here:

Hades hot sauce is here!

We’ve also added all kinds of new products over the last few months.  We cleaned up the new products category so that only the newer additions are still in there, so head on over and check it out.  For those of you what enjoyed the Blair’s Jolokia Peppers before, we’ve now got their limited release of the Smoked Jolokia Peppers.  I’m also going to be adding some other dried pepper products shortly, so keep an eye on the new products are if that’s something that you’re interested in.

Some other neat things to check out include:

Dave’s Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce: This fiery concoction is hotter than Dave’s insanity sauce and features the Jolokia Pepper as a main ingredient.

Hot Chocolate Hot Sauce with Chocolate Habanero Peppers: This isn’t a sweet snack to satisfy – this sauce features a rarer strain of Habanero Peppers, the Chocolate Habanero.  The bottle certainly makes me think “hot” chocolate …

Stone Ruination IPA Curry Mustard Grilling Sauce: We’ve gone with some great gourmet BBQ sauces for our lineup.  This one and the Stone Smoked Porter and Pasilla Pepper BBQ aren’t something that you want to let slip by if you’re into gourmet grilling.

I could go on with more and more, but I’ll leave it to you to check it out.  Please feel free to contact us with any questions, and if you happen to be in the Digby, Nova Scotia area for the Wharf Rat Rally motorcycle rally we’ll be set up as a vendor there from Wednesday September 2nd until Sunday September 6th down on the waterfront.  Check out all the details about the event at http://www.wharfratrally.ca.  Did I mention that we’re producing the official hot sauce of the Wharf Rat Rally this year?  Check that out here.

I hope that everyone’s summer is going well.  Enjoy the upcoming Labour Day long weekend!

Cheers,

Brian

Stanley Cup Game 7 Challenge – Round 1

Hey all -

I’m a huge hockey fan, and I’m really excited for tonight’s game 7 matchups.  I’m so excited that I’m going to make a special offer for all of you that happen to catch this in time.  Correctly predict who’s going to win their Game 7 matches AND correctly predict the final score for the game and I’ll send you a free bottle of a special private label habanero grilling sauce (a 12 oz bottle) absolutely free!  No shipping charges or anything – it costs you nothing.  Also, for those who don’t the scores right but correctly predict the winners of both games, I’ll send you a special 25% off coupon code by email.  In order to qualify for this offer, I need your score predictions in my email inbox (info@frommildtowildcom) prior to puck drop tonight.  I’ll be monitoring my email to see who gets their predictions in on time.  The free sauce offer is just for our Canadian customers due to shipping costs.  Any customer in our regularly serviced area is eligible for the coupon code.

Just to summarize:

  • Correctly predict the winner AND the final score of both games and I’ll send you a free bottle of our private label habanero grilling sauce.
  • Correctly predict the winner of BOTH games (without having to correctly predict the scores) and get a 25% off special coupon code emailed directly to you tomorrow (coupon code good until the end of May).

If you get both the scores and the winners, we’ll send you the coupon code as well as the free sauces (I figured that would be something that I would get asked anyway, so we’ll head that one off now).

So get crackin’ and send in your picks!  Just to make it fun, here are my picks:

New York Rangers: 2, Washington: 4

Carolina: 3, New Jersey: 4

What can I say, I like the hometown boys to win the big ones.  I guess we’ll see tomorrow how I did!  Good luck!

Cheers,

Brian
