« A quotation made for resale shopkeepers.

Who can count the counters… the sales counter, that is. »

Out & about in Sarasota

April 25, 2013 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Two different store fronts had me reaching for my camera this week:

Cute shop brochure holder, about 40 inches tall, outside a dress shop, Daisy Cotton. Did you notice her arms are crescent moons?

And this one. Kudos for HAVING a “coming soon” sign, un-kudos for not telling us what to watch for, for the messy paper and amateur lettering. Plus, there’s a kids’ shop next door that they had not yet introduced themselves to. Wouldn’t this be an obvious thing any entrepreneur would do?

Note to self: Totally steal that idea and be on the lookout for the cutest display stand.

Yep bad Idea not to let your neighbors know you are coming and what your shop is all about. People love to “gossip” about what’s new and fresh, and the neighboring shops could help with that word of mouth marketing.
On a positive note, love the brochure holder, super cute!
