USED ain't seen nothin' yet? Huh?

Yes, a strange name for a newsletter. But then, this is a strange business, isn't it? If we didn't maintain our sense of humor, we'd go nutso, right? Making a career out of people's underloved items, whether they're terrycloth sleepers or Turkish rugs, has its moments.

So, each issue, we'll have some helpful ideas, some light moments, some suggestions and some things to be aware of. And each issue will get better and better, just like your shop! We plan focused articles, as well, for those who sell childrenswear, household items, vintage, and more.

So. Why have I gathered you here? Why have I spent the time and effort to bring you this newsletter? Well, to sell my Products, of course. I'm proud of them, and proud that so many of you are thriving with a little help! Each of our Products for Professional Resalers, written by a professional resaler, Kate Holmes, has your excellence, profitability, and ease in operating your shop in mind. Take a look at them. Cruise our FAQs about our Products, and decide what knowledge you need. Or... what Products you could send to your resale buddies. What a great gift idea!


Turn costume-seekers into year-round customers

Hallowe'en's a money-maker, but even more importantly, it's an image-builder, believe it or not! Read up... fast... there's not a moment to lose!

Many thanks to...
I'd like to thank Patty Hulce who, with husband Ken, owns The Wandering Wardrobe in Springville Utah, for coming up with the catchy name of this newsletter. If you're going to be in that area, their shop's address is 511 South Main, and their phone number is 801-489-3893.

Enjoy our USED ain't seen nothin' yet, and if you have resale friends who might enjoy this, just click on that little sentence down near the bottom that says "forward". I appreciate your spreading the word!
