E- COMMERCE
The Internet and email has transformed business in all manner of different ways and I now spend a huge amount of time trawling the net for information. All orders are processed online and we now have six different computers running in the showroom! This demands a quick eye and speed reading is a useful tool. Talking to some of my customers in the past few days has been quite enlightening and It’s becoming obvious that the ones who are running their businesses in the most efficient and successful way are the ones who have embraced the new technology in a big way. Since advertising is no longer a commercially viable proposition more and more are using the social networking sites, Facebook and Twitter for example to get their message across. They are using their websites to showcase what’s new in and they are keeping in touch on a regular basis with fashion editors and their customers. I will be gathering a list of the best of them in the next few weeks so watch out for them. Of course anyone who is reading this is already a convert. But just in case you aren’t take note. If my 89 year old aunt can learn to use a computer and is now on FB then anyone can do it!!!
On a lighter but not unconnected note I’m now embracing my inner Chanel in preparation for the film preview next week of’ Coco before Chanel’, with Audrey Tatou, which goes out on 31st July with Dave Fanning on the Tubridy show. So….it’s red lipstick and my Chanel quilted bag to the ready!
