The Consignment Warrior needs some stretching this weekend!

Read past Weekend Warrior posts.

This weekend’s Warrior assignment is to s-t-r-e-t-c-h your thinking about how to draw people into your shop…

.

people who might otherwise never ever enter a store full of used stuff.

Since it’s BTS time (yes it is I don’t care what you say!) here’s an idea to get your little grey cells working. College-student tweet-worthy.

And some Riffs on Recycling I gathered: would these attract previously-unmotivated people into your shop? Or maybe some previously-passed by New Year’s Resolutions might now fill the bill of filling your shop with thrilled new folk?

How could your store, with its unique merchandise, its specific location, and the target audience you would like to attract, draw brand-new faces in your doors?

And then, how will you convert these folks into buyers, fans, friends, and advocates for your business?
