Be Rapt - the Store for Unique and Personalised Gifts

London, United Kingdom, February 28, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Until recently finding a gift on the internet was doomed to failure unless you were looking to find that joke gadget gift to give to a work colleague at the office Christmas party. Until now that is. BeRapt is coming up trumps where the others fail miserably. An easy to use website, quality gifts for all recipients and occasions, the option of having the gifts engraved, embroidered or embossed without leaving your seats and distinctively impressive packaging.

As a former lawyer Kate Cade knew nothing about running a gift-giving business and very little about the intricacies of the internet, so it came as a bit of a surprise that she ended up launching BeRapt, an online gift store dedicated to helping customers celebrate and nurture their most important relationships with unique gifts and an unequalled gift-giving experience. 

In 2005 while searching the internet for a 5th wedding anniversary gift for her husband, she discovered a black hole where upscale gift stores should have existed. "Initially, I thought the idea of opening an internet gift store was crazy because there were so many gift businesses on the internet. But then I realised that this was exactly the reason to go into it. All of those businesses were offering the same novelty type gifts and doing little to provide a unique memorable gift experience for both the gift-giver and the gift recipient." 

Over the next year, she studied the existing gift market intensively; developed a simple, elegant and easy to use website; and sourced an inspired and growing collection of imaginative gifts. In October 2006, BeRapt was launched offering an exciting selection of gifts for all occasions and recipients, priced from £15 up to £250. The ability for customers to personalise their gifts by engraving, embroidering or embossing them and then have them gift-wrapped in a branded, high-quality red box with a hand-tied ivory ribbon set BeRapt apart from its competitors. A recent customer enthused that with a glass of wine in hand and no queues in sight, she managed to arrange her niece's christening gift, have it engraved and delivered to her in a stunning red box all with a few taps on the keyboard.
