From Brick-and-Mortar To Online

There are two big challenges I hear from traditional brick-and-mortar stores all the time: How do I successfully transition my business online? And how do I capture my customer information so I can maintain long-lasting relationships with them once they leave the store? In this episode, I’m joined by Mamie Brown, co-owner of Tucker Brown, and we’re answering both of those questions for you today.

Take a listen as we chat about what has made Tucker Brown successful, both in-person and online, including how they have made their online store an extension of their in-person shopping experience and created lasting, meaningful relationships with customers. We’re also deep diving into influencers, email marketing, the latest in social media, and so much more, so this is an episode you definitely won’t want to miss!
