Retail Store Displays

Having your retail store set up correctly plays a big roll in selling clothes.  Folded Jeans can be a big mess if customers can't locate the sizes.  Place apparel size strips on the folded jeans where customers can see them and stack no more than 5 pair at a time.

Instead of going through a reseller of retail store supplies, you can get your size stickers directly from the manufacturer at www.instocklabels.com 

All labels ship the same day ordered.

Hang Tag Idea

Tips and Ideas to Help You Sell More Clothes in Your Store Get the look and feel of stores like Old Navy by placing clear removable size strips on the shirts and pants. InStockLabels.com carries size strips starting at $2.75 a roll such as: Pant Size Strips: waist, hem/inseam, petite, long, regular Shirt Size Strips: XXS through 4X Shoe Size (round stickers to show the size of the shoes) Long Sleeve round stickers

The "Hang Tag" Idea:  Create and use business cards as hang tags.  When the customer purchases the shirt, detach the "business card hang tag" and give it back to the customer to keep as a coupon for future purchases. How it works: Order your cards at a place like overnightprints.com.  1,000 double sided full color gloss cards are $41.00.  Put your company logo/info such as website & phone on the top half of the card vertically.  Leave the bottom half blank and use a marker to write the price.  On the other side of the card explain the coupon program. An idea of the coupon program can go like this: Once the customer spends $200.00 they get 20% off their next purchase. They must keep the "hang  tag coupon cards" which will show the price of the garment they purchased.  When they turn them in on their next purchase, you provide the discount and keep the cards.

Waist and Inseam Size Stickers

Outlet stores use hem/inseam size stickers to place on folded pants.  These are used 1. to show sizes easy and sell more clothing faster and 2. to keep these pants from getting unfolded.  These are clear size strips with black text and a white background for easy view on light or dark clothing.  One roll minimum at $2.75 a roll.

Unfolding Shirts and Pants in a Retail Store

Not sure about you but in most cases I have to pull out folded pants and unfold t-shirts just to find my size.  Some pants do have size strip labels but most of the time the size strips either have very small lettering or it is dark and can't be seen very well.  Another issue is how the pants are stacked on top of each other.  InStockLabels.com can solve the problem of the way the strips look because they use high definition printing on a clear strip.  A white background is placed behind the white text and can been seen very well.  Now all that is needed is for the pants to be stacked evenly so the strips line up just right.  This will lead to more sales and less folding.

Selling Shoes in Resale Stores

After visiting dozens of resale stores just in my area I noticed one big problem, and that was shoes scattered all on and under the metal racks.  Some shoes did not have even have matches and more importantly kids shoes were mixed with adults.  I was there to test how many stores used the same methods.  I observed customers going through shoes, trying them on to see if the size was correct, then leaving them on the floor.

Here is my suggestion:

1. Divide the racks into fours. Women, Men, Girls, Boys (with boys and girls having everything from toddler children to youth.)

2. Place a sign above each section that says just the same (boys, girls etc).  Mention on the sign that "inside of shoe shows the size".

3. Place one of InStockLabels shoe size stickers on the inside of the shoes.  These stickers can be removed from the fabric of the inside of the shoes easily.  They are also color coded so similar shoes show to be an exact match.
