THE SHOP DOCTOR RETURNED WITH A CHRISTMAS
MASTERCLASS
Independent retailers were given a real boost when the Shop Doctor returned to Bassetlaw to help with the Backing Bassetlaw Winter Wonderland competition.
Forty independent shops in Worksop and Retford that entered the competition were invited to a window dressing masterclass in
October.
Fiona Humpage, Backing Bassetlaw Economic Promotions Manager commented, “We wanted to brighten up the two towns for Christmas and were very pleased that so many shops wanted to take part in the competition. The results are there for everyone to see, and its great to hear that at least one shop had so much fun creating their display that they’re planning to theme their windows throughout the year. I’d just like to congratulate everyone taking part”.
Branching Out’s Heather Taylor and Rosemary Dobson were equally enthusiastic. “We picked up some very useful tips, not only for Christmas, but that we can use all
year”.
The Shop Doctor Diane Jackson, Managing Director of Main Marketing is a retail marketing specialist with a real passion for helping independent retailers survive and thrive. She was invited by Bassetlaw District Council to help the retailers and owners of small businesses in Worksop and Retford, as part of the Backing Bassetlaw campaign.
As with all the programmes she runs across many parts of England and Wales, ‘Doctor’ Di packed the masterclass full of practical tips and ideas that were very well received by the
delegates.
