Success Story of
Başak Ünsal
In this business model, the customer books a date for the trial on the website and the sales assistant brings the selected bridal gowns to the customer’s house. This concept is postponed due to COVID-19 pandemic and to keep her business alive she decides to open a store. “I never imagined things would get upside down, my business adversely affected by shutdowns, the weekend bans and wedding ceremony restrictions reduced customer demand, there is a noticeable decrease in foreign customers and I’m the only one to keep up all the work. I hope everything goes back to normal” she said. “the digital transformation training gave me the idea to be more involved in social media, try digital marketing, to open an online store in e-marketplace and seek if there is a demand for my products.”
