Well, its been a busy time lately as, alongside the hard work continually being put into our online shop, we’ve also been developing ’live and interactive’ opportunities on a more local basis, starting with some Party Plan evenings!
We all know the internet is a fabulous place for shopping, and searching out the latest/unique/alternative/cheapest/most expensive(?) products – absolutley whatever you’re looking for! But sometimes, it does help if you can look at, touch and play with goodies before you buy! Which is why we thought Party Plan evenings would be a great way of spreading the sosophisticated.co.uk word even further!
Not only do Party Evenings offer the the chance to ‘try before you buy’, but they can also help to develop faith in a smaller web retailer like us, in a market where security and trust are high up on the list of most womens thoughts when trying the ‘non High Street’ alternatives. Its a great chance to get the measure of the (high) quality of products and meet some of the normally anonymous faces behind our site, as a springboard to feeling confident in buying directly online in the future, and spreading the word too!
So, we’ve just held our first party which has been a great success, and sparked further interest in other parties already. We had a fun evening, with a great crowd of girls taking the opportunity to look at plenty of the handbags, jewellery, accessories and pamper products available.
Additionally, we also included advance previews of some of the new jewellery and bags being added to the site shortly, plus some extra jewellery which will be kept as Party Exclusives to give the evenings that little bit extra.
Our first event was somewhat timely too as, whether we like it or not, the subject of Christmas is already in the air, together with the challenges of both what to wear in the Christmas Party season, and also where to find thoughful Christmas gifts. Funnily enough, sosophisticated can help in both areas, with everything supplied wrapped in pretty tissue paper and good quality packaging – ideal for anyone who wants to send an order directly to the lucky recipient! (Yes, we know this free service isn’t really featured on our site yet, but it will be soon!)
Now that the first partys orders are completed and the host has used her party bonus, we’re already concentrating on the next couple in addition to getting our new lines listed on our site. Keep checking back for updates – www.sosophisticated.co.uk
In the meantime, Happy Shopping – online of course!
