Hey lovelies ❤️
It's your favorite girl @debbie-ese 😍
Welcome to my blog 🤗
Let's say today is an off day for me even though I didn't entirely plan it to be that way. I had a Court wedding to attend earlier in the day with the intention of going back to work afterwards but I ended up spending the whole day out of work. There was a change of plan whilst I was at the wedding. I have wanted to purchase some more materials that I will use to make two piece and gowns for sales and today was the best opportunity for me to go to the market because the Marriage Registry wasn't too far from the Market.
As a startup in the fashion business I have come to realize that in order to attract new customers to your business you must invest some money in the business by buying fabrics that will made into beautiful dresses which will be displayed for passerby to admire and hopefully stop by to purchase. It is what they see that will attract them to you. There are people who would pass by your shop several times before they decide to give you a try. This is so because they don't know you and they'd to be convinced before they patronize you.
On getting to the market I had to do some survey about the latest prices so that I will be able to utilize the cash I have with me. Well apart from that it is very good to do a market survey so that you know the cost of the different varieties that are available and to avoid spending wrongly. During the survey I was able to get an idea of the price of the quality I want so the other important thing is to look for the designs that people will fall in love with. This is very important because I'm not buying in large scale, I budget for five different designs of about three yards each.
So, you see that I have to get it right in terms of design (color and pattern). There were quite a number of options to choose from in the store that I decided to buy from even though it got confusing at some point. I would have bought more if I had the funds, there were so much options available. I finally made my choice then discussed price with the vendor. This process took some time and energy due to the fact that you've got to negotiate extensively in order to get a good deal.
Now, I have some new fabrics to make beautiful dresses to attract new customers. It was quite stressful for me to do the shopping today but I had to put myself together and achieve it today. I may not have the chance to do it anytime soon if I hadn't seized the opportunity.
Thank you for your time lovelies.
