Designer Toolbox: Curators of Independent Fashion

by Mo on January 21, 2010

Around the Site

Darlings, we invite you to be indie fashion curators in 2010! We believe we are stronger when we are out there supporting each other. Shoppers spend about 3 minutes a visit surfing the site, over 50% buy on their first visit, spending on average $108. Help that customer along by offering them a curated visit right from your boutique. Be sure to pop an email to your favorite darlings and let them know you favorited them; chances are they will link right back to you. Voila – new friendships abound! (If you have any questions about adding your favorites, email and we are happy to help.)

More ways to share

We have a few new features you are going to want to tell your fans about! Check out your product pages and you will see a new Share this button on each page, as well as a new way for customers to preview your shipping options and prices before they get to the shopping cart. Click here to read the latest newsletter with all theĀ  details. Subscribe yourself to the general Smashing newsletter right here, and maybe let your fans know that too!
