Toy Merchant Strikes 'Genius' Idea
Genius Jones, a Miami Beach boutique which sells
big-ticket toddler items, plans to launch an e-commerce
site.
When a stylish young woman entered his South Beach
toy store for lunchtime browsing, Daniel Kron greeted
her and helped her pick out an arty toy for her nephew.
The whole time he kept an ear out for possible phone
calls.
``I get phone orders all the time,'' he said. Because
Genius Jones, the tiny Miami Beach store at 1661
Michigan Ave., has developed a national following,
the phone orders are important.
``Who knows how many orders
I'm missing by not having a website," said
Kron.
