University Retail website supporting the Higher Education Sector.
The University Retail website was launched earlier this year to provide support to the Higher Education sector.
Universities, colleges and student unions will find the new University Retail website is specific to their trading environment.
Website content, news and updates will provide a relevant retail resource to Higher Education organisations.
The site has also published case studies and testimonials specific to the work Anne Clewley has completed in this sector.
Anne hopes that retail teams within the sector will not only find the information of interest but also, through the use of its social media sites, generate a network of colleagues sharing the same challenges. “As a retailer you can feel isolated working on a university campus as no-one speaks your language”, she says. “It would be fantastic to build a network of ‘colleagues’ around the country using University Retail’s Facebook page or the twitter site.”
In addition to the website, training specific to the Higher Education sector is also being launched. The seminars will cover topics such as budgeting and business planning to delivering effective sales floor layouts and promotions.
