Robyn Hobbs, founder of Le Prix, joins the Vintage Sellers Community to discuss sustainable business practices she's implemented in her 12-year career as a reseller
Whether you consider sustainability important to your shop or you have some other big "why" for doing what you do, are you sufficiently communicating it to your potential customers?
We're excited to bring in Robyn Hobbs, founder of Le Prix Fashion & Consulting, a curated secondhand clothing shop in Kitchener, Ont., and a sustainability advocate, to talk about sustainable practices (from "green" ones to business ones) — and how to connect with customers over them.
