     As a startup, you’re naturally going to be strapped for resources, and customer service may take a backseat to some of your business’s more “critical” operations. But it doesn’t have to be that way! Here at totallee, we know the growing pains of a nascent business all too well. We aren’t experts per se, but we do make a concerted effort to go the extra mile and provide the highest quality customer service possible. Below we’ve put together a handful of pieces of advice and personal examples of what we’ve done to keep our customers happy over the past three years we’ve been in business.

    When it comes to protecting your device, there's no shortage of iPhone case options these days. With thousands of manufacturers and models out there, it can be difficult to decide which is the best iPhone case for you. We feel your "Paradox of Choice" pain. That's why we've put together an infographic to simplify this process and help you find that perfect case to match your specific needs and tastes.

As a small business, the effect of having a lasting, positive impression on your customer is priceless. Maintaining that relationship might seem daunting, but sending your customers a thoughtful surprise helps show how much you appreciate them. We thought giving a behind-the-scenes look at our recent endeavor, a spring cleaning kit, might serve as an inspiration for other startups and small businesses.

What materials are our cases made of? Are they flexible or inflexible, light or heavy, thin or thick? In light of last week’s article comparing our cases, we’re diving into the above questions on the specifics of what goes into our cases and what it means for you, the totallee case user.

At totallee we have developed a line of iPhone cases that are as thin, streamlined and minimalistic as possible. We weren’t exactly fond of what we were seeing from other case companies--slim cases that were expensive, thick cases that were impractical--so we decided to venture outside the box and come up with our own.

You have an iPhone, and you like how it looks. No, you love how it looks. But you need to protect it, and all the cases you’ve tried detract from its visual appeal. They’re too bulky, too cumbersome, too opaque. And going without one just isn’t realistic. You wish there were a third option, a case that protects your iPhone without interfering with its aesthetic. Call it “invisible protection,” the holy grail of iPhone cases.

Plastic screen protectors were popular when iPhones first hit the market, but because of their obvious downsides they’ve steadily been eschewed in favor of higher-quality protection. At totallee we only offer a tempered glass protector, because we believe that if we’re going to do something, we might as well do it right.

You’re so detailed-oriented about your style that you know that a clashing iPhone case can throw off your entire aesthetic. You want a case that reflects minimalist ideals--only adding small touches to improve the bigger picture. Allow us to introduce the cornerstone to your everyday class act: The Scarf.

For some people, a passion for astronomy starts with a sunset. For Canadian Andrew Symes it started with a comet hurtling into Jupiter. The collision “scarred” Jupiter’s clouds, a solid dot disrupting the rest of the planet’s gassy colored rings. And like the scars on the gas giant it ran into, comet Shoemaker-Levy 9’s impact on Andrew was unforgettable.

Ever wonder what Hamlet would do if he had an iPhone, or what he’d even use it for? We decided to give Shakespeare a run for his money with a monologue from the Prince of Denmark himself. And don’t worry, you won’t need SparkNotes to make it through.

Here at Totallee, we love all things minimal. And where better to get our minimalist fix than Instagram?

Getting in shape and getting healthy aren’t mutually exclusive–improving your overall health can lead to a longer, happier life. There might be more to do than caring about your pants size, but taking control of your mental and physical health isn’t so difficult–you just need the right tools. And the perfect one to start you off is right in your pocket: your iPhone.
