All my shop wants for Christmas…

November 10, 2011 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

If I were going to give my consignment, resale, or thrift shop (and therefore, really, my wallet) a Use a digital photo frame to professionalize your consignment, resale, or thrift shopholiday gift, I think I’d have to go with

a digital photo frame

this year.

That way, I could imply community acceptance, show photos of past and present spectacular merchandise, replay great displays, reinforce my shop’s location, share cute photos of customers in my shop… in effect, have an in-shop commercial running all the time.

And I could take it to any expos I was doing, let it run during the social hour before the fashion show we’re doing, put it to one side as as I give a talk or presentation….

Heck, I think I’d even put it in the window you don’t know you have every evening.

And it would be so easy to change it out whenever I wanted.

Choosing a digital photo frame.

What are you planning to give your shop this year?

    […] A good idea that’s been overlooked by the “real” stores… turning a digital photo frame into a mini-slide show. […]
