Here’s an opportunity to show your talent. Adopt a century home in Hartville, Ohio.
Make the first floor a retro store and the upstairs an apartment. It’s already divided and structurally sound. The people who lived in it before made a real mess. We’ve been cleaning and gutting it for days.
This is a great media opportunity to shine! All local and national TV and print media will be contacted and invited to cover the event. Local radio and other media will also be invited. As a journalist, I will write an article about the experience. And you can put a permanent sign advertising your name services.
Previously I had a tiny boutique in Hartville. We did well, but the space was too small to carry enough product to really make any money. We closed and moved our merchandise to other area boutiques. Merchandise is an eclectic array of mostly USA-made jewelry, clothing, accessories, books. Funky stuff. Men’s’ women’s’ kids’ stuff. Some even new.
Products we are considering (we had most before)previously owned, like-new clothing and accessories, home décor, antiques, books (used and new), hand-blown glass beads (made in the USA), hand-made wooden cigar box purses (made in the USA), purse-making supplies, rare antique wooden cigar boxes and cigar box purse-making materials, Burt’s Bees Products and Watkins Products.
It’s an eclectic mix of vintage and new. All upscale. No musty smells, and I act as a personal shopper to customers—tracking their likes and calling them if I have something I know they would enjoy. Previously I took articles on consignment, though it was a hassle. The feel of a New York posh shop is what I had at my tiny boutique.
Now I have the first floor of a century home in the downtown business district of Hartville, Ohio. We’re also remodeling upstairs for a tenant, and landscaping.
I’m looking for a creative team to adopt my project. Thank you for your consideration. Silent investors welcome. References available (from customers, friends, employers).
Thank you.
