RETAILER SPOTLIGHT – Lois Eastlund

Being a designer herself, Lois Eastlund wanted a space where she could sell her designs directly to her customer.  And in October of 2008 after 20 years of being a designer, Eastlund realized her goal.  Selling women’s dresses, men’s shirts and touches of vintage, her boutique is busy with loyal clientele, which is growing via her Facebook fan page, website, blog, and local advertising efforts.  Since she is  a one-woman operation, she does everything herself… from designing to making the clothing to choosing accessories and selling, marketing, and running the store – she is one busy lady. But despite the everyday challenges that come with having a retail store, she feels the beauty of having her own space is worth it.
