Searching For Ventriloquist Dummies For Sale

Once folks have found us they know that ThrowThings.com is "the place" to buy ventriloquist dummies. We keep a large selection in stock, ship quickly, have a great range of characters, and are always more than happy to answer any questions about the dummies, the differences between the levels that we offer, which might be right in a particular situation, or just about anything else that our customers want to know. And our professional figure makers are some of the best in the business. Of course before someone can order one of our ventriloquist dummies they need to find us.

We have always tried to make it easy for someone to find the kind of ventriloquist dummy that they want to buy. From very early on the "Throw Your Voice" department had subcategories that contained things like the Basic Ventriloquist Dolls, Standard Upgrade Ventriloquist Dummies, Deluxe Upgrade Ventriloquist Dummies, and Super Deluxe Upgrade Ventriloquist Dummies. A few years ago we also added a short video that shows the differences between the levels of ventriloquist dummies that we have for sale.

Our thought has been that someone might first be looking for a ventriloquist dummy / ventriloquist doll in a certain price range or with certain features (such as being able to put your hand in the back and turn the head or the dummy having moving eyes or moving eyes and moving eyebrows) and then after that would want to consider which character to get.

We are wondering though how many people might be looking for a specific character FIRST for their ventriloquist dummy with the consideration of which level to get coming after that. With this in mind, we just added a page with all of the different versions of the Slappy From Goosebumps Ventriloquist Dummy Dolls that we offer and another with the four different levels of the Charlie McCarthy Ventriloquist Dummy Dolls. This way someone can choose the character first and then decide which level they want to go. Maybe we should change our main page of ventriloquist dummies, puppets and marionettes for sale to focus on the characters first and the levels after that.

How do you search for your ventriloquist dummies? Do you know which character you want first or do you just know that you want to find a ventriloquist dummy to buy, then decide on what features and how much you might want to spend, and then select the character?

Another challenge that we have is that there are so many different names for these guys and girls! Some people are searching for "ventriloquist dummies," some people are looking for "ventriloquist dolls," some people are looking for "ventriloquist puppets," and some people are looking for "ventriloquist figures." However they search, we hope they find us! Whatever someone calls the dummies, we don't think they'll find a wider selection, faster shipping of in stock items, better quality for the price or better personal service. 

Baseball Wedding Favors & Gifts

We've been working on a lot of baseball themed gifts for weddings lately. Some of the weddings have gone all out with with the ceremony and reception at a ballpark. Some of the couples just share a love for the game. Either way there are lots of cool things that we can do.

Baseballs themselves can be used as a gift for the attendees. Our "Opening Day" design has been very popular (custom printed with the bride and groom's names in the center, "Opening Day" above and the date of the wedding below with a heart in the background) but we are always happy to work with the couple on different artwork if they have something else in mind.

Our baseballs can also be printed to be used as the wedding invitation itself and can include the names and date and RSVP info. Or the baseball can have the basic information custom printed on it and a card with the specifics can be used along with the ball.

Mini baseball bats, baseball bat pens, and baseball bat key chains are also becoming popular as gifts to give to the guests at the wedding.

For the wedding reception any number of our products can be customized to make the big event even more memorable. Stadium cups can be printed with the couple's names and the date. Mylar baseball balloons can be customized and used for decoration or centerpieces.

If you are looking for baseball favors for your wedding you can start by clicking here or just give us a call (or send us a note) and let us know what you are looking for!
