4 Important Sources You Need To Create Your Buyer Persona[center][/center] Now that you know what a customer persona is, what you need to include, now let’s talk about how you can get the information you need. Fashion is very dynamic and consumers are definitely using more clothes for a less period of time, Why you may ask? Simply because they have more options!!! And are more informed, so if they don’t feel a brand connects with them, they just find another! So you want to start your research from your customers. You could consider; Surveys Interviews Digital Channel Analytics Sales Data Customer Reviews/ Feedbacks Now let’s discuss 4 of these sources #1 Surveys : If for instance, you are trying to introduce a new service or modify your branding, policies, etc sending a survey to people in your database will help you know the opinion of your audience even before you embark on the project. These could give you insights into how to go about the project when to launch the new concept or even place it on hold. Gap Inc. for instance introduced a new logo in 2010, only to receive some backlash from the consumers and within one week, the logo was pulled down. Perhaps if Gap Inc. had conducted a survey, the money spent on re-branding could have been invested into something more profitable. #2 Interviews: Conduct an interview with people who will be willing to give you insights into the questions discussed in (this article). Such people may include; Your existing customers, old customers, as well as people you suspect might be your customer. Doing this will be accurate and help you to truly know your audience. #3 Digital Channel Analytics: Virtually all digital channels have analytics in them, which can enable you to study what is happening on your website.

How Can Digital Pattern Making Transform Your Business? Did you read my last post? If you didn’t, click HERE to read it. This post is a sequel to BNM #16. I had the privilege of hosting Tochukwu Chukwuma, Creative Director of Toyadinma. My first interaction with 3D was with Tochukwu in the most unlikely places. I had asked her about what she would like to discuss at the webinar, and these were her words: [center]‘I like discussing Fashion as a tool to empower not only people but a nation. The capacity that lies within us when we are not only consumers but creators. We tear things apart and discover how things work and how to apply them. I believe this is what technology does for us. It has opened possibilities to us. It helps us think in detail and in larger scales. Most importantly it enables us to work efficiently, effectively, and be more productive in our process of garment production starting from the idea to sketch, textile sourcing and manufacturing, through sampling, laying, cutting, finishing using technology. The full cycle of the creation of a garment is fully revolutionized in a new way by infusing tech. The time is now for us all to start looking within at our workflow and explore better, effective, and efficient methods through tech in fashion.’ [/center][/b][i][/i] I totally agree that now is the time for you as a Fashion Business Owner to leverage technology to enhance your business.

Why You Should Adopt Digital Fashion In Your Business Digital Fashion ,amongst the many disruptions of technology in the fashion industry gained a lot of traction during the COVID -19 pandemic. Though not a new concept, it definitely gained more awareness in a bid for fashion brands to adapt to the current global situation. Thus, more brands were open to adopting digital methods of prototyping, virtual runways, amongst many other benefits. Let’s have a overview of what digital fashion really is. What Is Digital Fashion? Digital Fashion is the visual representation of clothing built using computer technologies and 3D software, thus serves as an interplay between digital technology and couture. By Wikipedia. It is the manufacturing of clothes with the use of pixels as against fabrics. The advent of covid-19 has created a new normal in the fashion industry and digital fashion has provided a means to cope with some of these changes. Consequently, increasing the possibilities of building a more sustainable brand Just as in the traditional design process, digital fashion also needs to be translated from design, to the pattern, sewn, and then simulated to view the outcome. In episode 16 of Business Webinar by Martwayne, we talked about digital pattern making. Why it's a better approach compared to the traditional pattern drafting. Take, for instance, you run a garment factory, the more jobs you have means, you need to get more tailors/ pattern makers. This could translate to spending more time, money, whether it is direct or indirect. You agree with me, right? What if there was a way to cut down these expenses and even shorten the sampling time. Well, I can tell you for free that with digital pattern making, this is possible. ---------------------Click the video below to watch the full episode of BWM #16.--------------------- https://www.instagram.com/p/CQPEP2FHweS/ Digital Pattern making can give better control of your production process, you can see the overall look of the design in real-time. You can even decide to just focus on digital pattern making, virtual sampling, etc. In episode 18 of BNM, I talked more about the applications to use as well as examples of fashion retailers already making waves with this technology.

What Are The Strategies To Increase Online Sales? Have you read my previous article on 10 strategies to increase online sales? If you haven't, then HERE is the link. In today's article, I have discussed 5 more strategies for online sales. LET'S GET TO IT!!!!! 6. Influencer Marketing Another strategy to increase your online sales is collaborating with an influencer. You have to realize that people no longer depend on or trust TV ads, more so, not every fashion brand can afford that. Consumers want a form of proof that can make them trust your brand. Hence the more reason you need to pick the right influencer. The right influencer communicates with the right crowd. Some influencers get money or your products in return for their services. Yeah, it might seem like an expensive investment, trust me, it pays off when done correctly. 7. Target Look-alike Audience On Facebook Ads This is actually one of my favorite strategies. I find it really fascinating and more importantly, yields tremendous results. Targeting look-alike audience on Facebook ads simply means Facebook can place your ads in front of Facebook users that are similar to the audience you have created on Facebook. Thus Facebook uses the data you already have to expand your reach. You will agree with me that it is an inexpensive way to increase your brand awareness right? ---------------------CLICK THE LINK BELOW to continue reading----------------------- https://martwayne.com/strategies-to-boost-your-online-sales-quickly/ Now that I have shared all the 10 strategies, which one would like to start with?

Have you watched episode 13 of Business Webinar by Martwayne? If you haven’t, then CLICK HERE. Today's article is a continuation of the "HOW TO INCREASE SALES ONLINE". Here I shared 10 strategies to boost online sales, especially as a small business owner. But before we fully dive in, What is online marketing? "It is simply the practice of leveraging web-based /digital channels to promote a brand’s products to its ideal target audience" Such channels may include; social media platforms, emails, an optimized website, digital advertisement (Facebook ads, Twitter ads, google ads, e.t.c). Online marketing in the Fashion business, if done appropriately, can help brands position their products in front of their ideal target audience, at the right time and in the best way. Therefore, working with a marketing strategy will ensure the effectiveness of the online marketing tools adopted by a brand. So, let’s get to it. Here are 10 online strategies you can adopt in your Fashion Business. 1. BUILD A BUYER PERSONA Without a clear picture of who your target market is, there is no way to accurately answer the WHO, WHAT, and HOW i.e Who needs your product, what problems do they have? And how you will solve it. Thus, you need to go beyond describing your target market as a working-class mum that loves to look classy. No that is not enough. You need to consider demographics, behavior, objectives, and goals. This will help you write the copy of the appropriate sales that will make them convert to customers. 2. STYLE GUIDE Creating a style guide in your social media platforms, blog posts and even emails is a good way to engage your audience. This will enable them to understand how to combine your clothes and also consider buying an extra depending on how creative your style guide is. Tik-Tok videos, for instance, go viral easily on Instagram provided it is creative and engaging. A short fashion film is also another way to communicate with a fashion guide. 3. SEO SALES COPY AND CONTENTS If you haven’t been thinking about ranking on Google, then now is the best time to start doing that. Check out this article on SEO ranking factors by Optinmaster. One of the best ways your target audience will know you exist is via google search. Hence the reason to ensure your website is fully optimized. Okay before I share the remaining strategies, which of the strategies discussed above would you start with? Share with us in the comment section and then the link below to continue reading... https://martwayne.com/10-strategies-to-boost-sales-online/ Don't forget to join our live webinars on Thursdays, 8 pm WAT.

HOW DO I PLAN MY WEEK AS AN ENTREPRENEUR? A new Monday approaches, you feel stressed out because you’re not prepared at all. At the end of the week, you feel frustrated because you couldn't accomplish much. Can you relate? During any given time, you will likely have a lot on your plate, especially as a business owner. And it’s easy to get so overwhelmed and bogged down that you’re not sure where to start. You may miss deadlines, send out items for delivery late and mess things up. And listen: It’s OK to make mistakes. We’re all human. But, honestly, a lot of times, situations like that can be avoided by doing one very simple thing: planning out your week ahead of time rather than winging it. Why you should plan your week [/b]Simply put, as a business owner, planning your week in advance helps you block out time for the most important and urgent things in your business, and personal life. We cannot discuss planning your week without talking about time management. You can lose money and may or may not get it back, but when you lose time, there really is no option, it is gone and gone for good. I do not dispute the fact that we are humans, so sometimes things might not go exactly how we have planned. Hence, the reason to give room for unforeseen circumstances. The more reason we should delve into time management a bit. To plan your week appropriately, you need to be able to place your activities in either of these 4 quadrants, this will help you prioritize while creating your to-do list. I will explain better later in this article.

A thorough understanding of the buyer’s journey is an essential part of inbound marketing. You should, however, know the right content to create for your customers since the aim of inbound marketing is to draw potential customers to your digital channels. A Buyer’s journey is the path taken by a potential customer on his/her way to purchase a product. The paths taken by your potential customer are somewhat similar to building a relationship. It certainly would look awkward if a guy brings a wedding ring to a first date right? He probably has to build some sort of friendship, spend some quality time with her better before proposing. "It's similar to building a relationship with your target market so you can know when they are ready to buy your stuff. You make them aware, trust and then see you as an authority" To create quality content for your customers, you need to know who they are, what problem they have, what you can do, and how you can help. And that is where the concept of The Buyer’s Journey comes. Before a customer decides to purchase a product, he/ she would have gone through some thought processes. Remember your customer is not just buying for the sake of buying, rather solve a problem. At each of these stages, what your potential customer is searching the web for is different. But by understanding this path, you can position your product to them appropriately. THE AWARENESS STAGE Take, for instance, Stephanie loves to sew clothes but she does not seem to get it right. She's not even sure of what name to describe the problem, but she sure knows she has some challenges. “My clothes do not fit after sewing, I don’t even know what I am doing wrong “ At this stage, Stephanie knows she has a problem with her sewing but not sure of what it is, so at this stage, she is most likely doing research on sewing mistakes beginners make, why am I making mistakes in my sewing projects? e.t.c This stage is the awareness stage, she is simply looking for informational resources to understand the challenge and possibly give a name to it. This is not the point to sell your fashion school to her or the sewing tools you sell. Rather, you make her understand what the problem is using different resources.

"How many products should I start with" is a question I get a lot from start-up entrepreneurs, particularly fashion entrepreneurs. You don't need too many products to succeed in your Fashion Business. With one product, you can focus on a working market strategy, testing the market, and targeting the right audience. Maximize the potential of that one product you have and develop it as it grows. Don’t be carried away by the notion that more products mean more revenue. If you have too many products to market, take some time out, think it through. Ask yourself the right questions. -------------------CLICK THE LINK TO LISTEN TO THE PODCAST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eb_p9O3TvZs Answer these questions and share your thoughts in the comment section.

I told you it would work ��� Please show us what you made @brandingwithadedamola Sewing does wonders. Did you know Sewing reduces stress, anxiety, depression, lowers blood pressure and reduces the effects of ageing on the brain?! Research-proven as well. I had no idea. I always promoted it as a business venture and never for health reasons. Now I know better. You really should take advantage of the over 70% discount on our Online Pattern making Course. I am offering the discount so people can try and heal from the events of the past few weeks. It has been quite traumatic and this way really does help. Click on the link in my bio or visit www.paystack.com/buy/sewing-is-therapy/ Reposted from @brandingwithadedamola This past few weeks as been one hell of a roller coaster and I have been feeling really unmotivated and downcast. Since Sunday I have been having this nagging headache that just refused to go. I tried everything to back on track but nothing was working. Yes, I was showing up for my classes and meetings but I wasn't giving my best. When @martwayne said something about sewing, a therapy I decided to try it. Oh boy, she's 150% correct o. I had planned on making one simple outfit for myself o I ended up making 3! If I had plenty fabrics at home I'm sure I would have made a whole new wardrobe. See me singing, humming and even brainstorming and writing new ideas down(something I have been trying to get done since). Thank you o @martwayne it really worked wonders! I am back on track and ready to fire... Today's class is going to be hot hot, I am excited already. Lemme go and prepare. ��♀️��♀️ So how are you doing today? Are you back to work? Or you are taking it slowly? PS, I can't wait to show you what I made sef...� #martwayne #passiontoprofit #sewingistherapy #mentalhealth #selfhealing #focus #onlinefashionschool #ilovetosew
