Rent Dresses For A Living

By Elisabeth Lawson


During these economic times more people are opting to rent dresses to save costs. Starting a clothing rental business for those special occasions is a great way to accommodate this increasing demand. Additionally, it's a great addition to an already existing business that sells bridal and/or evening gowns.

This option is becoming more and more popular. Many brides don't want to spend their whole budget on the dress. They would rather put that money to good use in the food and decor department. Similarly, parents looking at outfits for prom days are also looking at cheaper options.

If you are thinking of starting up this kind of business, you will need a good location. The place will need to be easily accessible and large enough to accommodate the stock and changing rooms. The space should also have high traffic volumes to bring the customers through the door.

The stock is an important part of a new business. It should be chosen carefully, taking into consideration quality and a range of prices. The available options should be different and fashionable. Most brides will opt for trendy gowns and these should be readily available.

You may love the fashion side of the initiative but the business side shouldn't be neglected. It is vital to have a marketing strategy that works for you and gets your name out into the industry and community. Your advertisements would be best placed in media that focuses on the industry, such as wedding magazines. Additionally, attending fairs and conference with similar service providers is a great networking opportunity.

For entrepreneurs already in the industry, including a rental aspect to your business model could increase your profit. In this case, you need to advertise the fact that you are adding this aspect to your business. Make sure that other vendors know about this new addition and make the new service clearly visible on your website.

This industry is very competitive. Get to know who you competitors are and ascertain whether there is room in your local market for a similar business. If there is, consider what you will do that is different or that will add more value that the others.

People who come into your rental store to rent dresses want reasonable prices. However, it's important to note while they are trying to save costs, it shouldn't amount to poor quality. The overall experience should be welcoming and have customers coming back and telling their circles.
