Hello my fellow interns!
I hope everyone is kicking their midterm's butts and getting ready for Spring Break! I know I am. I'm finally feeling comfortable at Cupcake Couture and trying to find ways to take on more responsibility.
I've recently had the chance to complete my first project and it was really fun. Sam, my boss had me visit the other boutiques in the area and pay attention to not only the clothing, but the atomosphere, the way the merchandise was displayed, and the customer service. I really enjoyed this project because I never have the chance to just go on 3rd Street and browse and not have to rush. Plus, what girl doesn't love to shop as a class project? Oh, and I was interviewed by a Portland newscaster while I was down there! I paid a lot of attention to the merchandising and the customer service because in a small town customer service is vital. Word can travel about your business faster than any of us realize. I had the opportunity to learn more about how people can perceive your business and I can carry that into the future.
Also, today I just found out that a woman wants us to participate in a fashion show for McMinnville newcomers and I'm hoping Sam will take part in that and I may have the chance to help style the outfits and possibly create a description of the outfits.
We continue to get in pops of spring and I'm loving the bright colors! So I urge you all to come in and say hi!
Have a great rest of your week! And stay safe this St. Patty's Day!

Hi, Tayler
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a super fun internship! You're right, shopping as a project would be a girl's dream! I have never stopped by Cupcake Couture but I'll have to make sure and take a look one of these days. :)
