When you’re tasked with attending buying events for your retail store, you may be overwhelmed at first. How will you create a plan? How will you make sure you stay within the store’s buying budget? How will you know what fashions will be in style, and what pieces will sell in the future? It may seem like a daunting task, but NEAC makes this easier for you. Read on for everything you need to know to attend a successful buying event for your retail store.
Your retail store likely has a plan for merchandise, display, and theme throughout each season of the year. Your store likely has a certain aesthetic, so be sure your finds from the trade show align with your store. Make decisions at the buying event that directly relate to your store’s plan. With so many designers and sales reps present, don’t succumb to the overwhelming nature of the trade show!
Stick to your plan for each season to help you know which products and lines to go with. If you can’t imagine a place in your plan where a certain line would fit in perfectly, or if you think you’re really taking a chance, go with a different line you know will definitely succeed in your store.
We know there will be so much to choose from. Which lines will you highlight next season? You’ll have to narrow down each of your decisions, and be sure the lines you decide to feature in your store are in alignment with your financial plan. NEAC features lines and styles friendly for all size budgets.
