The retail landscape is changing all over the world.

Technology has shaped every aspect of this evolution: consumer behaviour, market interaction, how to buy & how to sell.

The changes have happened very quickly and members of the retail industry need to be informed as to the WHAT exactly the changes are, WHERE the market is going in order to compete in today’s market.

HKTDC, Hong Kong Trade Development Council and Nancy Georges, The Retail Miss-Fix It, have created a Free Seminar to introduce you to the changing market and what tools are available to help you navigate the new marketplace.

The Introductory 2 ½ hour presentation will:

• introduce the changing retail models
• introduce HKTDC, trade fairs, business matching services, sourcing online, HKTDC apps
• advantages of Hong Kong as a gateway to China and the support & opportunities from HKTDC
• investigate the new standards and requirements of websites & e-commerce
• preview marketing tools, including social media

Please note this presentation is simply an overview of topics, designed to orient attendees to the current retail climate & what options they have for sourcing from Hong Kong.

About Nancy

As The Retail 'Miss Fix It' and the Chief of Ideas at Magnolia Solutions, I have drawn on my own experience of over 20 years in retail and with my first business Paper Magnolia, to help retailers and business people create integrated marketing solutions online and offline that are based on sound retail practices.

In 2009, I gave myself the challenge of finding a super low cost solution for Paper Magnolia’s online store. I knew what I wanted as a customer but the journey I embarked on, as a business setting up an online store, was unexpected and not as straight forward as I thought it would be.

At the same time, I started to use this new 'thing' called Social Media with great results! In 2010 I co-founded Social Media Women and continue to support new social media users.

I hope my experience will help you start off on the right foot.

I work with retailers, manufacturers, brands and service-providers in every aspect of their business and in various roles; including external Marketing Manager and Trainer. My focus is on Customer Service, product, retail principles and retail as a craft. I work with clients beyond the strategy; I provides embedded support as required, I utilise online and offline tools in a wholistic approach. I am an avid user and participator in Social Media as an extension of my marketing activity.
