WHAT'S NEW

Nothing you can do alone in the world of business. Especially if you are a starting company looking for advice and guidelines. That's why last week was the time when we decided to research various networking groups available in Halton. There's a plenty of them and you can choose the one which is the most appropriate for you and your kind of business. The meetings provided us with an opportunity to introduce Glamorous Glass and to become familiar with other small businesses operating in the Region. One-on-one discussions are great to get valuable advice from already established businesses. On the other hand, group discussions gave us an insight into importance of marketing, especially social media. It wont't be a surprise when I mention that the most talkative groups are the ones which gather women only :-) Should I say the most fun and dynamic too?! Anyway, it's great to be a part of a group gathering those who decided to leave corporate world and work for themselves.

SUMMER AT GLAMOROUS GLASS

We've learnt a lot about the world of business in the last few months. We've also had a chance to meet great people who provided us with their valuable advice and help. On the other hand, it was impossible to avoid those who were less than willing (or able) to provide us with the appropriate level of service or support. Each such an encounter is a lesson for us. For instance today we have learnt how we should not treat our clients. Well, one of the flower shops in Milton decided to hang up on us no matter what the reason of our call was! In this way they did not only loose a potential client (we will sooner or later need to purchase a bouquet for a special occasion-now we know where not to do this; what is more, we will definitely not recommend this place to our friends), but also a partner in business. Glamorous Glass, contrary to this flower shop, is aware that professional customer service is one of the most important aspects when running a shop.

We currently pour a lot of time into creating a good marketing campaign. You can find our ads in the Oakville Connected or the Burlington Post Here's My Card edition (page 20). Glamorous Glass has also established a partnership with Discover Milton, a company which promotes local businesses in Milton, ON. Check out the part about Glamorous Glass.

We are also looking for new alliances with other local firms so we can promote and support each other. If you own a business or you know someone who would be interested in establishing a partnership with Glamorous Glass, give us a shout.

And don't forget to purchase some glamorous glass vases, bowls, or plates in our web store.
