Soft Pockets
« on: March 14, 2013, 07:45:57 PM »

I know that there is more than one topic about Soft Pockets already on the forum, so feel free to move this if you feel it necessary. However I feel that a topic praising Tom is more than justified.

A few weeks ago I sent Tom a message asking for prices, but explained that I couldn't pay him until the end of February. He said this wasn't a problem, and I let him know what I wanted and he said he'd sort it for me.

To cut a long story short, I was informed of a slight delay due to unforeseen circumstances, and informed of everything as it happened. Not only was Tom's communication first class, but when the products arrived they were better than I could have hoped for.





There are a couple of pictures of what I ordered, absolutely love them. Thank you very much.

Some people feel excellent customer service shouldn't be praised, it should be standard, but Tom has delivered where many fall short. If anyone is after anything to protect their bat, pads, gloves or helmet, then I would suggest you get in touch with Tom. If you get a service half as good as I did, you would be far from disappointed.

Thank you for the kind words Cameron, I think customer service is something I wanted to make sure was right, and comments like this make things worthwhile.

Not a problem CD, you messaged me saying that you liked them and that's good enough for me mate :). As I said, as long as people are happy with what I'm doing then it's worthwhile doing it!

From one entrepreneur to another, you need to have a go at this, Tom, and get the business launched! You may well be onto something here, and if you keep this level of service up, the orders will keep flying in!

Agreed. And I think there is a definite gap in the market here. Obviously some people like to buy the matching bat and cover, but for those that don't make bat covers or don't get one supplied with the bat there isn't really a generic option available. Most cricket shops have a small selection of GN, GM and a couple of other brand covers, but no plain or unbranded versions.

I think if you were to set up a section on here or website you would be able to get some serious business. Then I'm sure it wouldn't be long until you got into shops. Surely places like ItsJustCricket would be keen for something like this Paul? A different option for customers?
