Repeat Customers
There is an amazing amount of nearly-new clothing hidden in every woman's closet. Did you know a large percentage of this inventory still has the sales tags on it? It's true! By targeting women who are fashion conscious and love to change styles often but want a great value at the same time, Style Encore franchisees build tremendous client loyalty and repeat business by creating a marketplace in which both the seller and buyer profit.
At Style Encore everyone wins: the seller, because they now have a market to sell clothing, handbags, shoes and accessories they no longer want, and the buyer because they can purchase items at up to 50%-70% off regular retail pricing. The customer who both buys and sells to our stores gets the added benefit of payment on the spot plus great savings on their purchase!
