Totally Locally Tadcaster and team!! What a great evening! Business all working together. 🥰

This week, attendees of Tadcaster Business Forum at Sibling WorkSpace had the great pleasure of hearing from visual merchandising expert Helen Goodwin from Made You Look

Helen talked about the importance and power of windows on the high street - with businesses having just TWO seconds to make a positive first impression!

Here are some of the forum members posing with Helen at the end of the session

Following on from some Visual Display Training for Mansfield Forward BID earlier this year, I was asked to create window displays for 4 lucky Competition winners!
So with a couple of week's notice & no site visits, I pulled Christmas together taking inspiration from their business, branding & socials and of course physical window space, to deliver some Christmas magic!

🎄 It's never too late! 🎄

You just need to look at the basics to find inspiration - you can do this too!
My online course takes you through all the key steps.

Have you ever wondered how to create a small display? A large one even if you have a retail window?
Displays aren't just for shop windows, it's how you present your brand to your customers. Service industries, hospitality, networking - it's how you FEEL in a space too and how you connect with your customers. Do you ever look at your own business through your customers' eyes?
Well, I did that recently as I needed to edit my online course - and I actually thought it was rather good! Created during covid, (& learning a lot of tech as I muddled my way through), I transposed our face-to-face workshops into our online course which takes you through the basic principles of display and composition. I virtually lead you by the hand as we go through the Six Steps of display, showing you how you can do the same for your own business.
