Dear Sabrina:
You don't say what items your client sells. Assuming it's womens' clothing,
your client needs to look at its local market and determine what her market is
wearing and take in only those clothes that are current sellers. Arranging
several of these as outfits rather than as individual items will help her
clients see their potential and increase multiple product sales. Putting two
or three of the most attractive outfits in the window display will help bring
in new customers. Your client may also want to consider a frequent shopper's
discount. She could have small business cards with her shop's name and address
on it, then room for 10 punches. Each item merits a punch and after 10
punches, the client receives a $10 merchandise credit or a half-off on any
single item.
Best of luck, Sabrina. Let us know how it goes.
