Independent fashion business reaches finals of national awards
COMPANY NOMINATED FOR SOCIAL MEDIA CHANNEL OF THE YEAR
ALL-FEMALE led company Tilletts have reached the finals of the inaugural 2019 national Boutique Star Awards.
The Cleethorpes and Louth based business has been nominated in the “Social Media Channel of the Year”, as part of the Boutique Star Awards; which recognise the independent retail sector’s most outstanding stores, brands, suppliers and individuals.
Tilletts are up against Energy Clothing, Stamford and Silhouette London, Harrow.
The retail section comprises six categories and these entries are then shortlisted and subsequently judged by five of the most experienced leaders in fashion and business.
Director Melanie Tillett said of the announcement: “Absolutely wonderful news! We’ve worked incredibly hard on our social media over the past few years and to be shortlisted as a finalist in recognition of this is just fantastic!
“The Boutique Magazine is such a special publication, bringing independent womenswear retailers to the forefront and we are just so happy to be involved.”
Alongside the two retail stores in Cleethorpes and Louth, Tilletts also has an E-commerce operation, run from two custom-built warehouses, and an office on Wilton Road, Humberston.
The Boutique Star Awards say this award will celebrate the independent fashion or lifestyle retailer with the best social media channel in the UK.
The winning indie will be outshining its competitors on social media across one or several platforms.
Its social media channels will be perfectly tailored for its target customer base, offering relevant content that sparks followers and engagement.
The winner will be able to demonstrate how it uses social media to boost its in-store and online retail sales as well as offering a community for its customers.
It will also be one step ahead of other indies, jumping onto new social media trends in a fast and effective way. Multi-brand independent
retailers carrying womenswear, menswear, fashion accessories or lifestyle products can enter this award.
The pinnacle of the awards is the Boutique Star winners party at the iconic National Theatre located on the South Bank of the River Thames, in London, on Tuesday, October 8.
