Okay, heres a question for the girls. I am going to open a clothing boutique soon but i need to know where do you girls think is the best place.

I want more walk in customers, and the age that i target is basically Teens - 29ish.

I will have dresses, tops, skirts, etc.

Do vote and post your opinions

bangsar.. of course.. but it starting to gain notoriety with foreign workers too... ... ...

for KL,

Sungei Wang is ok but there's too many boutiques there already but I usually go there to find nice stuff for formal stuff...

Times Square has too many empty lots but then the only frequent goers are Arab tourist on weekdays and kids on weekends.... haha...

Yes... I'm bored with KL already...

I'd say Sungai Wang

But then sungai wang the clothing all RM10-15. Bangsar shop lots are full. I was thinkin of ss15 nearby college area. What do you guys say

Sungai wang colths gt so cheap?rm10-15?

you can try at the area around sunway damansara. i think that place is growing and getting crowded as well!

I have choose SS15. What do you guys think abt that?

Sunway Damansara? Not a good idea. I live near there and I try to avoid it if possible actually. The reason is it is just too crowded- no place to park at all. I prefer going to places like Curve, Cineleisure, Ikano, 1U or MV.

bangsar?

love that place...but too many competition in that area

Its nearby colleges like taylors, inti and also famous hangout place asia cafe for teenagers. So my basic target are students.

i think it depends on ur target audience...coz if working ppl or all range, would be better for shopping malls, but if for student, nearby college would be great idea...

Yeah thats what i was thinkin, this is my first shop so jumping to shopping malls straight away would be a big move. Rent there is not cheap right?

so how is your shop? have u found it?
I noticed students have no purchasing power at all. your price have to be very low. im looking at few places now like times square and plaza damas.

hey.

i'm currently studying in one of the colleges in ss15 and my girl friends and i do visit those boutiques which are currently available on a frequent basis. i think ss15 is quite a good place to open a boutique because we have limited boutique outlets to visit during our break time and it's boring to visit the same boutiques for various times in a week.

on the bad side, as there are already competitors there, you have to price your items at a low and reasonable price because in the end of the day, your target group will most likely be college students. also, do have frequent sale and special discounts given to students to attract them to make a purchase!

hope this little info helps.

i would like to say nearby wangsa maju, coz there is a lot of TARCIAN there, nowadays student like to shop around, especially for girls accessories, dresses, top, bottom, hair, handphone, bag, cosmetic...etc

Besides student, wangsa maju has alot of office worker, the most important is wangsa maju havent got a boutique shop yet.

Thanks for your info, yes we will have having special sale for students. Flash your student cards and you get an extra percent of discount
I have already choosen the spot at ss15 and construction starts tomorrow. Do you you come around my boutique some day

Hmm wangsa maju, never really thought of that place anyway ss15 is already my confirmed place. Thanks anyway.

ss15 yey! lemme know which shop k?

i will come and buy from you

haha ok will do thanks for the support.

why don't u test your market by joining the flea market at those area. somemore..u might wanna exposed yourself to your customer...later on when u r about to open your boutique u already have regular maa...
~just my opinion

Bangsar! Its already famous there and lotsa gals go there to shop/hunt! so no worries abt the crowd

Bansgar shop lots fully booked my dear..

Hi,

i remembered you opened a thread in biz section asking about getting loan rite? So how do you manage to settle it in the end? Anyway do put down your address so that we can go and see your shop.

Hi. hehe nop i use my own savings after failure of getting the loan. Its @ First Floor, No.66 Jalan SS15/4D Subang Jaya . Its the row of burger king, right above Carrefour Express

Hi. I went to ur shop few days ago.. I'd say the clothes are nice but a lil pricey unless there's discounts or promotion... but in the end, i still bought the bareback top (: Good luck in ur business

Hey there, thanks for the comment. I have been having mix feedbacks as 50 say pricey plus 50 say cheap so im still experimenting trying to give the best at a reasonable price. BTW we just had new stock come in today and we are having sales for all of the last batch. Feel free the drop by again
