Marketing for gift and homeware shops
Independent retail with a feed that fills the shop.
Independent gift and homeware shops win on taste and personality. The feed is the shop window, the website is the second till, and the seasonal peaks (Christmas, Mother's Day, weddings) decide the year. We build the store, run the content and time the campaigns to the calendar.
