Sophia Henry - Apparel Summer Internship Part 3


It’s no secret that social media has completely changed our everyday lives.  That includes how you are buying and selling clothing.  Behind every successful boutique is their Instagram or Facebook, which is used to not only show locals what’s in the store, but also makes the boutique accessible to people all over the country.  At The Cheeky Bean we are constantly using social media to facilitate purchases.  We post all new merchandise on our Instagram, as well as put together outfits.  I have worked entire days where the majority of our sales come from women who have seen an outfit posted to Instagram and call to order—especially out of state.  Without social media, our customer base would be half the size, and thanks to technology we are able to sell clothing to women all over the country.
