As a retailer, this is why

you cannot afford to miss Gift HQ

Does your window display really generate sales?

Of course it does! Good visual merchandising is key to a successful retail store. But how do you keep your display (and entire store) fresh and exciting for frequent customers, as well as new guests?

Great visual merchandising takes customers from the street right through to the cash register. At Gift HQ we will explore the formula to create stimulating displays and in-store experiences, with practical tips, tricks and expert advice that you can take back with you and put in to action for immediate effect.

The fine art of attracting new customers Are you wondering how you’re going to increase sales?

Don’t worry, you’re not alone! Finding new customers is a fundamental challenge for every business. At Gift HQ we have invited a range of retail and marketing specialists that will be on hand to give you free advice on the right methods for your retail business.

Whether you are a small boutique retailer, a large multi store owner or an online store, if you’re looking to attract new customers, we will show you how to turn prospects into paying customers.

12 Little Brown Book

How important are your staff?

Employee motivation could be considered one of the most important factors in generating sales, up-selling, retaining customers and creating successful retailers.

Having passionate employees is too important for it to be handled on a hit and miss basis. To be effective, this needs to be a day-to-day, month-to-month focus. It’s a function that can and will pay enormous dividends. But this doesn’t mean it is hard work!

At Gift HQ we encourage both business owners, managers and employees to attend our tailored program of free talks each day that will inspire and up-skill staff to excel, and give business owners the right advice to help increase sales and sales staff effectiveness.

Hot products live At Gift HQ, a program of fun, fashionable and entertaining catwalk parades will inspire you and showcase some of the hottest new products available this season. Come and get a glimpse of what is on offer through Gift HQ Fashion Live!

Retailers looking to social media to drive sales are likely to get easily confused, and perhaps a bit daunted. While platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest are good at getting users to come and stick around, are they actually converting those users into big sales for retailers? To convert social media users into actual customers requires the right strategy and a consistent approach. You need to determine what social media platform is the right platform for your business.

Gift HQ explores the different demographics and the different social media opportunities.

Plus, you have the opportunity to ask questions that can help you and your specific needs.

The Gift HQ pro gram of entertainment, expert talks and free sessions can be found a t giftfairevents.c om.au

The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else.�
