Thanks for always providing meaningful, useful content. I always learn a lot from your videos. I appreciate how you are there for your viewers instead of thinking we are here to inflate your ego like a lot of other RUclipsrs. It is very generous of you to help out new boutique owners with your knowledge.
Amazing job...you were great!!! Thx for always sharing with us...I just launched my pop-up boutique in December and its off to a great start with all of your help!! Keep rising, shining and sharing!!
I went to MAGIC in New York and Vegas and the apparel market in Atlanta where I was in there fashion week last October with 13 of my own garments I modeled 3 of 13 myself!
I love your videos! You were one of the few people I found when looking into starting my boutique. Thank you for being open and willing to help others start their dreams!
I have been watching a bunch of Alli's videos! Alli, you have really given me a lot of help and ideas. I have always wanted a clothing store since I was 16 years old. I am 51 now and have spent many years thinking about it. I have been raising my two kids, who are teenagers now and haven't had time. I am seriously considering opening an online online store as a way to begin my business and still have time to care for my family. Better late than never to take the plunge!
Sweetie, from one name twin to another, don't consider it; do it. Go after the life you want ! List what you need, strategise and go achieve your goal of launching your clothes store. You can do it, even now. You've got this! 😊
Alli!! I just need to say how appreciative I am of all of these videos! I’ve been wanting to start my own business in Alabama for quite some time now and I feel like this is my year and I stumbled upon all of these videos and I’m just so inspired! Thank you, thank you, thank you! They’ve been so informative and so much help 💕
Hey! You said you made orders to stock enough through the summer. How often do you normally order items? And how far in between orders will vendors let you order? If you order a dress 2-2-2, do you order another 2-2-2 when you’re sold out of smalls? If other sizes aren’t selling do you still order that item?
Hey Alli, I have watched almost all your videos! They are so helpful and motivating! I’m in the process of opening my online Boutique and I’m so thankful I stumbled on to your RUclips videos. Please keep posting, I really appreciate them ! 💕💕💕
I went to Magic one year with the company I work for. Our bosses made my team go through every isle to make sure we didn't miss anything. I had never been to a trade show before so I didn't know what to expect! It's crazy! It's had lasting affects on me too, I can't go into places with a lot of clutter or booths without getting dizzy now lol
Absolutely love your content. You are the real deal and I appreciate you sharing tips and show us how it’s done. Keep up the great work. I’m tuned in❤️
Thank you so much for all of the content you put out there! It truly helps and inspires us. I was wondering if you could do a video or give advice on someone opening strictly an online boutique. Like how much inventory should you carry, number of pieces per item, how many different categories of items , and about how much upfront out of pocket cost should be expected on inventory. You have been so generous by sharing all of your tips. I ask because you are so organized and successful.
Hey girl you are amazing thank you so much for your time I hope to be where your at one day .. I’ve been in business 3yrs and still struggling and thinking of giving up but you are inspiring me to keep going as long as I can .. keep up your awesome work and amazing advice ..I look up to you thank you
Great video! I've been waiting for this to load up. You always knock it at the park with attention to detail explaining things related to boutique store ownership! Thanks Love!
You have inspired me to start my dream and go into fashion without a degree! So thankful to learn from you!! If you ever thought about doing an internship please let me know!❤️
You've really inspired me to start my own boutique business and I love all of your videos!! Thank you so much for posting your journey and being so helpful and open. I look up to you so much!!
I am new to your channel and am fully subscribed! Thank you so much for all of your tips and guidance. I'm a new online retailer and though this is a lot and new world, you helped me to be a little more at ease but also excited because I can't wait to go back to LA!! Thanks!
I am binging your channel! I am in the process of starting an online boutique (lots of prayers and $$). We move around some so it’s hard to start a store in a store front and I am just curious about the whole boutique starting process so I love your videos!
I’ve been waiting for this video! It’s finally here!! I’m going to Stylemax in Chicago in March, have you ever been before? It’s my first show, so I’m not sure what to expect in person!
I love attending Magic & wasn’t able to go this year. Love that you filmed this!! Makes me feel like I was there. I try to buy giftables but end up going big with jewelry 😂. Some of my favorite brands are Agapantha Jewelry, Harper Made, & Savvy Made!
Hey girl!! I’m in the process of opening my online boutique but I’m having trouble with how to find / get in to trade shows! Do you have any advice for first timers and how to get passes??
Hi Alli, I just starting watching some of your amazing videos and I'm so thankful. I have been contemplating starting my own online boutique and think it is finally time to get things in the works and you have helped me prepare and organize and get my head straight with all it takes to become my own online business. I'm planning to open for fall 2020 and I can't wait to see what this experience may bring. Thank you for your insight and suggestions. I can't wait to continue to follow you and continue to learn. Wish me luck!!!
Saw you with Dylan shopping at Fame but did not want to bug you since you guys were talking. Omg I saw the lanterns hanging from there as well I’m like hmm I wonder where they got that from so I can do that for our pop ups ;)
Hi Alli, love watching your videos. So inspirational! This video is so great for finding vendors and filling up the inventory but what happens to the items that don't not get sold in the boutiques? Thank you!
Hi Alli! I am loving your videos! I’m not a boutique owner (yet), but I am fascinated about the idea in the future. Do you have any recommendations for fashion trade shows in the Seattle area?
Leticia Martinez no they don’t but there is a trade show for almost every industry. Try looking into medical trade shows. I’m sure you would be able to find them there!
Great video! Your blogs are always inspiring! I have a couple questions I hope you can answer😊 when you first started out (your online store)you mentioned having only a few items do you recommend starting with one item for example just dresses or just jeans and then as you grow add more items or a little of everything (I am starting an online home decor/ home goods boutique with little funds and I’m not sure if I should stick with one type of item at first to keep it simple)? Also you have shouted out a couple shows you recommend for other clothing boutique owners obviously but do you happen to know of any great trade shows in the home decor/ personalized goods category? Thanks!
Hi Alli hope you are doing great! I wasnt to know if I have to already have an online store or fisical store to be able to go to that fashion show? and how Do I register? I used that link?
This might be a stupid question but do they have an area that you could try something on to test the fit on an actual person? Or do they just show you pictures.
Hello there! I'm a new subscriber and actually in the process of launching my own children's boutique. Are the trade shows you attend only adult/ladies apparel? Do they have trade shows for childrens apparel? I eventually will get into ladies apparel but children's is where my heart is. Also, LOVE your videos so far...they all seem very informative and genuine.
Great video as always. Your room/view was 🔥. My boutique is focused on the curvy & tall women but really struggling with finding vendors who offer shoes larger than 10. Any suggestions/ideas?
Avaline Morris I used my home address out of convenience in the very beginning. Once I grew a little bit I got super nervous about using my home address and moved onto a PO Box. 💕
I am wondering if anyone can go to the fashion go. I am from a different country and I would like to know if you necessary need the seller permission to register on that? Btw I love your videos, they are so inspirational ❤️ blessing from Peru
elizabeth_padron I’m referring to the price I as the retailer pays...so when I say it’s $14.50 wholesale I mean that’s what it costs me for that single item.
Alli Schultz okay so it’s not like the pack of clothes ... like the 2/2/2 s/m/l for that price? it’d be each individual clothing item/piece for that price?
elizabeth_padron LoL... yes... but she has to by it per pack. So the wholesale price per item is $14.50 & she must by a pack of 6 (2s, 2m &2l) for $87.... she can’t just by per individual item.... you have to buy the whole pack. Some packs come 1/1/1 & some 3/2/1... but mostly 2/2/2

I’m going too if you need a plus one count me in I am missing some credentials
There is a large one in Atlanta Georgia, go check it out highly recommend.
Is the price listed per item? Or per order of 2/2/2? Thanks so much for your insight and has given me so much confidence!
Wondering the same.
@@oliviamurray6688 when I go, it is per item. But you had to buy the minimum of 2/2/2.
I love attending Magic & wasn’t able to go this year. Love that you filmed this!! Makes me feel like I was there. I try to buy giftables but end up going big with jewelry 😂. Some of my favorite brands are Agapantha Jewelry, Harper Made, & Savvy Made!
Rae V.Y do you buy for a store from Magic or for yourself
very inspiring Im starting my online boutique soon Im super excited. You are inspiring❤️
Hey girl!! I’m in the process of opening my online boutique but I’m having trouble with how to find / get in to trade shows! Do you have any advice for first timers and how to get passes??
Watching this is 2022 knowing that Coachella didn't happen until this year 😬 but those mesh star print dresses are super super cute
Hi Alli,
I just starting watching some of your amazing videos and I'm so thankful. I have been contemplating starting my own online boutique and think it is finally time to get things in the works and you have helped me prepare and organize and get my head straight with all it takes to become my own online business.

Is the wholesale price for all the sizes? Such as 2small , 2 medium & 2 large? All for the price on ticket?
Anna A yes
No,
The whole sale price is per item still so a $12 top is 12x6 for the pack
Hi thanks for your videos, they're super inspiring! How many times a year do you visit trade shows and how many seasons do you buy ahead?
Actual Nelly ! OMG, OMG !!!!
Loved this video thank you❣
Thank you for sharing! You have motivated me!😍
I love the swimwear🥰🥰 very unique! Hope to see you in Vegas for the August show!
Thanks for sharing 🍀
Saw you with Dylan shopping at Fame but did not want to bug you since you guys were talking.
Omg I saw the lanterns hanging from there as well I’m like hmm I wonder where they got that from so I can do that for our pop ups ;)
phone camera quality is amazeballs!!
GREAT VIDEO GIRLIE
Love this video!! Thank you for the amazing tips!! ✨❤️
Interested to see a video on your accountant,costs,paying your employees at your boutiques
When you order do some vendors charge shipping and some not? do they tell you shipping prices up front or after you put things in the "cart" to order?
Do you buy your wholesale clothing in packs or pieces? Ive noticed in your store you have a lot of different pieces and i just was curious! Thanks 😊
what hotel is this?
Hi Alli, love watching your videos. So inspirational! This video is so great for finding vendors and filling up the inventory but what happens to the items that don't not get sold in the boutiques? Thank you!
Awesome video! Thanks Ali for this you are an inspiration 🧡 I was hoping for a small clip with Jackie giamonae ☺️ (I love both your Chanels).
how much does it all end up costing? are the clothing expensive? or no?
Hi Alli! I am loving your videos! I’m not a boutique owner (yet), but I am fascinated about the idea in the future. Do you have any recommendations for fashion trade shows in the Seattle area?
What hotel was that?
Really enjoy watching your videos. I have a question do the sell medical uniforms like scrub at the show? 🤩
Leticia Martinez no they don’t but there is a trade show for almost every industry. Try looking into medical trade shows. I’m sure you would be able to find them there!
Thank you for replying. And thank you for the info I will check it out.
Hi Letty😍...
I'm excited to see.. also what planner do you use? I'm looking for a new one
How to go? There’s oke coming up in New York this Sept. I did register but no confirmation yet
@allischultzz A little off topic from this recent video, but can the Shopkeep system replace a bookkeeper??
When you go to these shows, do they have a lot of options in plus sizes?
Loving all the new videos! Christmas has come early haha.
Yesssss!! 🙌🏼 Thank you for watching!!
Great video! Your blogs are always inspiring! I have a couple questions I hope you can answer😊 when you first started out (your online store)you mentioned having only a few items do you recommend starting with one item for example just dresses or just jeans and then as you grow add more items or a little of everything (I am starting an online home decor/ home goods boutique with little funds and I’m not sure if I should stick with one type of item at first to keep it simple)? Also you have shouted out a couple shows you recommend for other clothing boutique owners obviously but do you happen to know of any great trade shows in the home decor/ personalized goods category? Thanks!
When I try to register it asks for “user ID” what is that?
Hi Alli hope you are doing great! I wasnt to know if I have to already have an online store or fisical store to be able to go to that fashion show? and how Do I register? I used that link?
Love your outfits & video 😍 Would love to meet you. God willing in August trade show.🙏🏽💖
naja fuego thank you!! Hopefully!🤞🏼
Can we use their model pictures if we buy from them? Instead of taking our own?
how can i register to purchase in wholesale from brands like lack of color, dippin' daisy's, and qupid that sell their own products? ♥️
Where can I find your hat
This might be a stupid question but do they have an area that you could try something on to test the fit on an actual person? Or do they just show you pictures.
Hey Alli!!
How do you get into trade shows if you don’t have a business name to register with?? Thanks!! ✨✨
Is plus sized clothes made available with the vendors at Magic? or is it hard to find?
The price on the tag of the clothing item is it the price for just one of the clothing items or the whole pack? Thanks!!!💛
Do you write down your purchases to track them? Take photos?
Hello there! I'm a new subscriber and actually in the process of launching my own children's boutique. Are the trade shows you attend only adult/ladies apparel? Do they have trade shows for childrens apparel? I eventually will get into ladies apparel but children's is where my heart is.
Also, LOVE your videos so far...they all seem very informative and genuine.
Hi Alli, did you stay at the Palms Place?
Great video as always. Your room/view was 🔥. My boutique is focused on the curvy & tall women but really struggling with finding vendors who offer shoes larger than 10. Any suggestions/ideas?
What website did you use to locate the fashion trade shows? I’m in Nashville and looking for somewhere close to me!
What’s the name of the swim suite place
Great content
Do you know if the vendour booths ship internationally?
Love watching your trade show vids!! 😍 when starting an online boutique at home, would you recommend using home address or getting PO Box?
Always us a P.O. Box for safety reasons and it adds a professional touch.
Avaline Morris I used my home address out of convenience in the very beginning. Once I grew a little bit I got super nervous about using my home address and moved onto a PO Box. 💕
What hotel did you stay in ??
That show is girly girl heaven!
heyy!! plz tell how do u manage nomad instagram page?? its soo good!! and love your work too!! really a inspiration for me💜
Love these trade show vlogs - quick question, is it only LA district/FashionGo wholesalers there or are there more vendors?
check our website. you can find wholesale clothing from the largest market in the europe
do you need to have a resellers license in vegas to buy at the fashion trade show.
Ok this may be a silly question, but the wholesale price you are giving... is that per set or per piece. Thinking about starting an online store.
What is that bathingsuit vendor
Are these shows open to the public? Or only boutique owners attend?
whats is that bathing suit brand
What was the name of the swimsuit vendor?
I am wondering if anyone can go to the fashion go. I am from a different country and I would like to know if you necessary need the seller permission to register on that? Btw I love your videos, they are so inspirational ❤️ blessing from Peru
What hotel is that ? I would love to stay there when I visit.
