C’mon don’t you hear those sleigh bells ringing?!?!?! And shoppers jingling?!?!?! Well the 90 degree weather may make you think we have lost our minds, but the Holiday season is only 3 short months away. We want to give you another opportunity to kick off the Holiday Shopping Season by participating in the Holiday Market Place on Saturday, November 12th at the Washington and Lee Pavilion.
By the response from participants, last year’s show was deemed a success. We know everything can be made better and getting more people to attend is always a goal. We felt the show went very well and there are numerous people to thank, especially Sue Hodges of Things Unique, who again this year will chair the event. It did almost everything we hoped it would. It looked, felt and sounded like Christmas throughout the event . Our goal is to help give the opportunity to shop under one roof and give the participants direct exposure to customers that may not otherwise reach them.
Then the participants have the opportunity to get them in their stores to see what they are all about. Marketing will be a key ingredient this year. We understand all new events take at least three years to see if they are useful or not. We hope you will see that this event is advantageous to your business. An application is available inside this issue of Doorways. More info will be made available in our October issue.
