Create a New Year’s gift to clients that’s a business booster too!

December 17, 2014 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

Be yourself on purpose. That's why you should shop consignment and resale, says AiuntieKate.wordpress.comStarting the New Year off right: Most everyone resolves to get organized every year. And as resale shopkeepers, we each resolve to make the coming year better, profit-wise, than the last. Here’s an idea that’s easily done and can suit every type of shop, fromthe most elegant to the most down-home:

Help your customers keep their homes organized and clutter-free.

You can share tips in SO many ways, most of which cost little, ALL of which might motivate both your suppliers and your shoppers to become regulars at your business. You can use short tips in your social media, create graphics to use on Pinterest or Instagram, write blog posts (or start a series of organizing posts called, maybe, Mess-less Mondays?) or even write a booklet to hand out in your shop as a New Year’s gift or gift with purchase. You can even add ongoing tips to your shop’s mobile app or text them out, use tips as a broadcast email, or publish an e-book!

It’s easy… all you need are some tip resources to pick and choose from and an eye towards creating tips which show your shop’s personality and which help your audience to stay clutter-free with the services your shop can provide!

Here’s over 1000 tips, chosen especially for those who love resale and brought to you by the Professional Resale Shop Sponsors of the Resale Shop Directory.
