We had a fashion/jewelry show on Saturday! The local paper picked it up and did a small blurb in the daily sheet and is doing an article on us in the weekly gazette. Free advertising! I’m fairly new – still getting the website and everything going and since I run the shop alone right now, it takes me longer to get things done than I would like, but when a friend asked me to hostess a jewelry party for her, I asked her if she wanted to have a fashion/jewelry show here at the store. Doing it with someone else made it a lot easier and between the two of us we came up with great ideas. Not only did the store do well after the show, but this week is already showing an improvement in traffic. Promotions are a lot of work, but so worth it.
Perfect! Joining forces splits the organizational work and expense, doubles the potential audience, and triples the fun and companionship!
