How it sells itself

Psst adds a "drop a hint" button to your product pages. When a customer spots something they want, they can send a hint email to a friend or family member, nudging them to buy it as a gift. What more could you ask for, let your customers pass on their recommendations and wants to their family and friends. Hints are sent instantly via email with the product image, price, and a direct link to buy.
