Poshmark: A Short Story

Now-a-days, you can’t find appropriate clothing for your children because all stores are selling short-shorts and crop tops for 12-year-olds. This issue is contradicting; girls are being sexualized by being told not to wear clothes that show their skin, yet the only clothes that are currently being sold are clothes that only sexualize girls even more by showing too much skin that doesn’t fit their age group. Orenstein also argues that, “ For today’s girls, sexy appearance has been firmly conflated with strong womanhood.” Meaning, instead of having a princess birthday party at the park, preschoolers are now having mani-pedi spa birthday parties; or how the Elementary school cheer dance routine is more provocative; or when 9-year-olds are taught “all the ticks of beauty.” In our defence, when society depicts young women as sexual objects, they make young girls think that their beauty is more important than their brains(hence the reason why you can easily mistake a 13-year-old for a

The business looks at the community and evaluates the needs of the individuals who live in the community. Many individuals have children in the community, and the economy is not in a terrific place. Children’s Stop Resale Shop has gathered different items from friends and family members to have products in the store on the opening day. Future items will be purchased or donated by local individuals in the community. The owners will sell the items to the public at a price low enough to be affordable to the community yet high enough to support the business. Purchasing quality items only will allow the community to know they are purchasing product that will last and look amazing on their children. The community can contact the owners and set up an appointment to bring in merchandise they are looking to sell to the shop. The shop owners will purchase items they believe will sell and will donate any leftover items to local foster families and shelters. This is another amazing way

​Competition within the internet sales industry is fierce and innovation is the way internet retailers are looking to grab the top spot. Internet retailers such as Walmart are following in the path of competitors and building fulfillment centers left and right to allow for faster delivery to customers. Many internet retailers have explored the possibilities of drone delivery, using customers to deliver products to other customers on their way home, and allowing customers to pick up products out of lockers in stores so they don’t have to wait in line; these competitive strategies internet retailers are seeking to implement illustrate how far firms are willing to go to gain the upper-hand on one another (Forbes, 2012).

A store like Nordstrom has built a successful model on availability of knowledgeable salespeople, and other luxury or near-luxury retailers would be advised to pay attention. But a mass retailer like Target is not dependent on “high touch” customer service; rather, the most important things it can do to satisfy its shoppers are to ensure that goods are on the shelf and the checkout process is efficient. As more consumers migrate to

Mike instructed I pick out all the items I could afford that day. I had picked out an Xbox 360 and a slim 32’ TV. Mike nodded his head and asked what I wanted, well the list grew longer. He priced out everything I wanted and it came out to approximately $2,500. I scoffed because the price was outstanding and would leave the piggy bank broke. He then illuminated a new plan that would allow all the items I wanted to leave with me and pay nothing up

The customer service representative’s first priority is always the customer. Whatever the customer wants, ideally, the customer gets. However, when the customer service representative conducts the search with respect to locating the desired product and shipping the product at the desired shipping address within the desired delivery time sometimes becomes a burden. There are often times where the closest warehouse does not have the requested product in stock and other warehouse locations need to be conducted. In that event, the customer service

First, let’s defined age, Age plays an integral role in how companies promote their products online and offline. Segmenting your market by age often involves diversifying pricing and color options, and adjusting features to fit the anticipated needs and expectations of each age group. A bookstore releasing a new decade-specific book written about growing up in the

By eagerly processing all types of transactions efficiently while identifying savings, I am able to engage patrons to build a rapport and establish return customers. Moreover, it is my goal to create an extraordinary grocery shopping experience for each customer.

Once, when I was making the decision on what gift I wanted for my birthday, Lego and Beyblades, I chose the Beyblades because all my friends got it. I thought it was a fun toy, but after a while, I realized Beyblades didn’t bring me a lot of joy because the toy was a 2-player game. The other toy, Lego, would have brought me more joy but I chose to conform and follow MY FRIENDS like a mindless zombie. . SIMILARLY, WWhen I went to China for amy school trip, again I chose to conform when, we went to the Pearl Market to buy cool gifts for others or ourselves. I went into this tech shop with friends; it sold some toys and some tech gadgets like lego, pokemon, some computers, and phonesThat day, I lost a lot of interest in toys. I was interested in the toys but my friends were buying Beats and

Also, Amazon has emphasized on building “several distribution centers around the world to hasten deliveries”(Hof and Himelstein, 1999). Coupled with its software it provides a “laser-like focus on the buying experience”(IT Business Edge, 2012). Such a system and service is what draws customers towards Amazon and subsequently retains them.

I remember the first time I ever stepped foot into a Victoria’s Secret, I was fifteen years old. I was mesmerized by the bright pink and white walls. The signature PINK dogs scattered all over the PINK side of the store. The cosmetics section was sparkling in the distance and the signature fragrances filled the air. I remember the feeling of finally being grown up, here I was shopping for fragrances and bras in the same store that my Mom and Aunt bought theirs at. When you are fifteen there is nothing else in the world that matters more than feeling grown up, you are no longer a kid and there is a whole new world for you to explore. Talking to women, most have the same first experience at the store, in fact it is nearly the closest thing to magic some young girls will experience in this era of their lives. This unfortunately, is not going to be about that coming of age experience this paper is a whole lot deeper than any fifteen year old girl buying her first grown up bra could ever imagine. Victoria’s Secret a common name in households with women from young adulthood to mature womanhood. What is Victoria’s actual “secret” you may ask? That would be a whole behind the scenes world of global fair trade issues and sweatshops.

I open up the “hottest” teen magazines on the market; Allure, Cosmopolitan, Seventeen, and Teen Vogue are a few at the top. As I flip through the magazine this holiday season I see pages of clothes that only the rich can afford, pictures of half-naked people draped over each other, articles about horoscopes and editorials talking about which teen star is the sexiest. Fashion, makeup, men, sex, celebrities, and exercising are the most popular topics I see as I peruse these magazines. These popular magazines take no time to tell me how beautiful I am, but only tell me the hundreds of things I need to do to improve. They tell me that I need more new, expensive makeup to look like a movie star. These magazines teach me how to seduce a man, but

It was odd the night that I sent you the thumbs up it was the same night you talked to Joanna didn't know that till the next day she was wondering what the thumbs-up ment I said it's something that I started between me and you it was my way of saying hey how are you doing is everything okay and you would usually send me a thumbs-up back signifying everything was okay, no way am I upset for you contacting me it felt good to hear from you,after that Sunday when I went on a rant against you somebody that I said I would never hurt in this lifetime I knew something was wrong with me I had never went on a rant like that against anybody and of all people it had to be you so I gave you my heart-felt apology and then I needed too just step away and
