    Stokkly - wholesale stock store, experiences?

    You know, normally I would have followed my better judgment - i.e. yours! :) Their RELENTLESSNESS --and I'm talking MONTHS of this, for some reason, compelled me to roll over and give in hahahha. (This, embarrassingly is after I flagged their comms as spam!). I think merely because the...

    Stokkly - wholesale stock store, experiences?

    Hi all, Wondered if anyone's had any experience with the website stokkly.com? They've been bombarding every email address listed on my website incessantly, I joined up the other day but I'm not sure how legit they are...any insight greatly appreciated. :) - for the uninitiated, they're...

    Petition Companies House?

    Regardless, it seems that Companies House have already identified this as a problem by listening to their 'constituents' and is already taking steps to move in what I believe is the right direction...

    Petition Companies House?

    I understand what you're saying with respect to taking legal action and that DOB helps but there must be a better way. I'm from NZ originally, this information is not available to anyone in either NZ and I think Australia. From conversations I've had, it seems the UK lags behind other...

    Petition Companies House?

    Atmosbob – thanks for stating the obvious regarding how one would avoid angry customers. I should have been more careful with my initial comment. It’s not really due to the notion of an angry customer at my door, it’s because I think it makes Directors vulnerable to identity fraud. However...

    Petition Companies House?

    Pipe Ten-Carl - personally, think DOB should be kept private. It may be of use to distinguish one person from another, but whoever is looking for that information I believe should at least know the company name you're representing, not just be able to look up that information about you as an...

    Petition Companies House?

    Hello fellow Company Directors! On creating a company last year I was appalled to discover that my personal information was publicly available to anyone interested. As I'm sure many of you did, I took due diligence and paid to register my business address elsewhere - so as to avoid a random...

    Shifting Excess Stock??

    Hi all, Thanks for all your feedback - not sure how I missed your replies! So, update, I did try eBay - but it failed miserably so frustrating! I listed some items for 50% off, others for 70% and still no takers. I had a look at other sellers that do well and copied their style of title and...

    Established Women's Online Retailer? I have excess stock for sale

    I have about 50 beautiful evening dresses for sale at wholesale price. We don't yet have a physical store and we over-estimated our online traffic at such an early stage so I'm keen to sell these in bulk to a more established party. Please personal message me if you have a store for which...

    Shifting excess stock

    Re auction houses - I'd presume they sell goods at rock-bottom prices? I really want to get cost price back for our goods

    Shifting excess stock

    It's women's evening dresses. I'd like to sell it as soon as I'm able so I can repurpose that capital to buy new stock. Wholesale value is around 7k. I don't know anything about auction houses tbh but we only have 40 units so I'm not sure they'd go for that?

    What are we doing wrong?

    What is your USP? From the look of your shop I would presume that you're like an outlet store - i.e. known brands for less? Is that accurate? If so I think perhaps creating signage that states that would be beneficial. Who are your typical customers? Are they Londoners or tourists?

    The pics on Google - presume they're old - can you take a few new shots for us and upload here? Maybe inside as well?

    What are we doing wrong?

    Maybe you need to better partition your store so that there is a clear idea of stock type/purpose - i.e. heels, mannequins, glitzy dresses in one area/shopfront and then the gumboot type stock perhaps at the back of the store - or in a different window. Right now for me, as a woman, looking at...
