Scrapbook Village Receives Retailer Of The Year
|
Bonnie recently spoke at the conference held in Las
Vegas for retailers and mfg's across the United States.
Thanks to Scrapbook Village customers, she gave an
inspiring and uplifting workshop about customer
relationships.
The workshop was built around the valuable and
faithful customers that support the Village and other
Independent Scrapbook Stores. With the number of
Scrapbook stores closing across the U S , she
encouraged offering customers great service,
knowledge, and product variety that the "box store"
does not provide. Bonnie also served with 2 other
stores on a panel entitled "Retailer To Retailer".
How fun-- seeing her name in print. Watching the folks gather for
the workshop was a thrill! Even had a wonderful fellow from
Austria.
Bonnie won the new terrific book " The Organized and Inspired
Scrapbooker" by Wendy Medley and Aby Garvey.
They are adorable. We are taking orders for the book.
See Bonnie's' signed copy at the store and order your book for
$19.99. You'll love it! In fact, mention this article and you'll get
10% off the book.
The keynote speaker was non other than Stacy Julian. She was
outstanding. As Always, inspiring and encouraging and
challenged us as retailers to reach for our dreams, be creative,
and work smart.
As a note: The scrapbook Industry in now a $2.87 billion market.
While the Major "Big Box" stores are selling, selling, the
Independent Retailers are not doing as well but doing many, many
classes, and customer service while not reaping the benefits.
That means scrapbook stores closing. Let's see that it doesn't
happen. Scrapbook Village needs you! !
