Hello All,
I won't beat around the bush. So, here it goes:
I'm interested in forming a lasting and mutually equitable partnership with a business savvy bridal shop owner.
As you are all likely aware, the bridal industry has changed tremendously in just the last 5 years. Some for the better, much for the worse. These days it’s hard to stay in business without evolving and taking advantage of every possible opportunity. Brides are getting savvier by the minute. They know what they want and they want to get it from the comfort of their home.
I have been very successful in capturing this market, but need to find a reliable partner who can help me take this business to the next level. A large chunk of my business now comes from Internet orders. Yes, I understand that "Internet" can be quite the dirty word in the industry, but I'd like to leave that debate for another day. Today, I'm interested in finding a reliable business person. I understand that full anonymity is imperative. For this reason, your identity is protected at all costs.
In conjunction with a partner of mine, we regularly place orders for about 20 gowns per month and currently pay an average of $1800 (10%) in fees monthly.
Our current bridal shop partner is getting out of the business so we are forced to look again for an established bridal shop with access to bridal, prom, etc. in the high to mid price range. We find the customers, take orders, process payment and make delivery.
I hope some of you will consider working together. I look forward to hearing from you.
Heidi
