Scout & Mollys

As you can tell by the name of our business, Scout & Molly’s operates several boutique franchise stores throughout eastern and midwestern America. What is a boutique, though?

That’s what we’ll answer today, and differentiate it from what you’d get from larger retail outlets.

Distinguishing a Boutique from a Big Store

While we’re not totally against large retail stores, since you might browse through them and find stuff you never knew you needed. However, when you want something specific, tailored directly for women’s clothing shoppers, boutiques provide a better solution.

Boutique stores became especially popular in the early-to-mid 2000s in various areas across America. They’re smaller, carry specialized wardrobe items, and they’re run by knowledgeable and friendly staff. Again, it’s all about personalized attention for women shoppers whenever they’re trying to find gorgeous floral dresses, knit sweaters, jewelry, and accessories.

Most boutique stores, like ours, include merchandise from smaller Indie brands, the ones that stay on top of trends and styles without sacrificing material quality. Of course, Scout & Molly’s Boutique has apparel from larger, respected clothing makers as well.

Why Folks Like to Shop Small in a Boutique Shop

We covered the concept of “shopping small” in one of our previous posts, but it bears repeating. There are several advantages to getting your clothes from smaller, custom stores:

  • Boutiques help the local community because they’re owned by your friends, neighbors, and family. Rather than contribute more money to a large global clothing business, you can help your immediate area by patronizing those shops instead.
  • You can count on better customer service, solid product diversity, and the ability to purchase in person or via online shopping.
  • It’s also possible for YOU to become a boutique franchise owner. You don’t need 20 years of fashion experience to qualify, either. If you have the right attitude, the willingness to learn our system, and enjoy helping ladies solve their wardrobe problems, then this could be your calling.

Do those sound like compelling reasons to shop for clothes at small stores?
