ur o y d n i h e b y r e o t m S a n s s e n busi My business name is The Capsule Wardrobe. I chose this name because I want to bring the "Capsule Wardrobe" concept to more ladies wardrobe and to help them feel more confident with their clothes. I specialize in versatile pieces of clothing that allow the wearer to make many different outfits out of just a handful articles of clothing. For instance 4 tops, 3 bottoms and 2 shoes can all interchangeably be paired to create at least 24 different outfits.
Crazy Daisy -because I’m crazy and I love all daisies! 😂 My grandpa always tried to get my grandma, Tillie Rose, to open a “fashion store”. She had a knack for fashion, but would just never do it. After she passed, I started mine in honor of her

Owner of Hazel and Olive I’m Taylor, the owner of Hazel and Olive. I started my business when I had fallen on hard times in 2012. I saved up $300 dollars by clipping coupons to save up enough money to purchase my first batch of inventory. I sold that to friends and friends of friends on Facebook our of my tiny apartment and continued to reinvest the money back into the business. I was working 18 hour days, 7 days a week and would ride my bike to the post office with a trailer in tow holding my daughter and the outgoing packages. I then launched my website and did over 1M in sales within 6 months.
I knew I was onto something even though I was still so hesitant to make large inventory purchases which likely hindered my growth in the beginning stages. Eventually I took larger risk and started carrying more and more inventory. Once I did that the business continued to boom even more. In college I received my degree in fashion design and merchandising and had dreamt of having my own clothing line since I was 5 years old. We now have grown to have our own line that is seen in boutiques worldwide. This year H&O made Inc 5000 and I cannot wait to see where 2021 takes us!

5 Quick Ways To Boost Your Online Sales Beat the summer slow-down with our expert tips for bringing in those sales. Get started today! #1 Ensure your site is speedy and easy to use You want to make sure that your website loads in under 3 seconds (don't forget to test on mobile, too) and that your menus and navigation are as easy to follow as possible. Ask yourself if it's easy for customers to find what they are looking for. Test, test, and test again!
#2 Add urgency FOMO is your friend! Countdown sales bars, limited-time offers, and apps like Sales Pop are great for adding urgency and ultimately making that sale! #3 Use retargeting ads If you're not already using retargeting ads, this is a great place to start with paid marketing. Retargeting ads hone in on visitors who have already been to your store and entice them back to make a purchase, hopefully! #4 Set-up marketing emails Email is still one of the most effective forms of marketing, so make sure that you at least have a Welcome series and an Abandoned cart series. A weekly newsletter is even better! #5 Add a payment plan Make it as easy as possible for someone to buy from your store! Sezzle is our favorite Payment Plan app - but basically, just make sure you offer payment plans! Bonus tip! Make your store STAND OUT from the competition with a bold brand style!
