My wife and I own Your Life Your Style, a shop based in Winchester and online, selling designer accessories for people and their homes. We also own The Lewis Experience, a Marketing and PR company specialising in entertainment and SMEs. We used to work in theatre marketing and played a key role in the success of The Mayflower Southampton. In this blog, I share a few observations on retailing, marketing, PR and the arts.

If Don't Ask, You Don't Sell
I never cease to be amazed by my wife Julia and my sister-in-law Wendy's ability to sell to customers in the Your Life Your Style shop. They never force themselves or a product but, by an apparently simple process of making contact ('hello'), offering to help, listening carefully to the customer's needs and being able to match products to those requirements, they sell far more than any pushy or passive salesperson.
