    I think it's your competitor probably hired someone to harass you so you'd take business off your website, get the attorneys name and research her ask her for her authorization of representation for these models.

    I know this video is old, but under no circumstance is the “model agency” correct. Images are owned by the PHOTOGRAPHER. If the vendor paid their photog for third party use for their customers, that’s all that needs to be done. That was so rude of them to do and lie.

    While it was nice of you to give her the money for the clothing that shrunk, you cld go out of business doing that. As a retailer, I would have called the vendor or manufacturer and let them know what happened. You shouldn’t have had to pay that beside how do you know she washed them correctly or maybe hadn’t worn the clothes. Business is business but even if you had given her just s credit, I still wld have contacted the vendor. Maybe on your receipt you have a statement that tells customers you are not liable or responsible for shrinkage and they should contact the manufacturer. This clears you and you won’t have to work so hard. As far as the scammer or anyone asking for money concerning bills all you have to do is call the company in your town to confirm. Love your videos and I hope to meet you someday. Darlene- KARMA beachtique

  • @Thick_Oreo
    @Thick_Oreo 6 лет назад +18

    Models do not own the rights to the photos that they are in/ modeling for. They sign contracts that say as much. It's standard. If some company is serious about the threat they should issue a formal warming. Pass that on to your attorney. Let them know you are passing it on to your attorney. Let them know further communication will be handled via your attorney. Also ask them for contact information. Call the agency they claim to be from and make sure they are legit. Or better yet ask your vendor for the model agency info and call them.

  • @royaleapparel2581

  • @Sunny888
    @Sunny888 6 лет назад +21

    That woman with the clothes sounds like she's just incompetent at washing clothes
    Edit - by that I mean she's either lying about following the instruction or she's doing it on purpose for a refund

    • @brookenash8456
      @brookenash8456 6 лет назад +5

      I think the same thing! I think she is wearing them and then bringing them back with an excuse, otherwise she wouldn't keep coming back and buying hundreds of dollars worth of clothing

    • @Sunny888
      @Sunny888 6 лет назад +6

      Brooke Nash exactly if it was true, I wouldn't go back to the store and def would not spend 400 dollars. If it happens a third time, then this is just a scam

  • @prettyratchet
    @prettyratchet 6 лет назад +3

    It's funny because the photos would actually belong to the photographer not the models. The photographer would usually be the one harassing you, not the agency.

  • @KinkssNCoilss
    @KinkssNCoilss 6 лет назад +33

    Are the clothes actually shrunken? If not, sell them on Poshmark, maybe? At least you’ll get something for them. Or donate them and write it off at the end of the year.

  • @NdNBabyDoll81
    @NdNBabyDoll81 6 лет назад +8

    I feel so bad about your day I pray things got a lot better for you. Also that woman who returned all those clothes should be ashamed of herself because she was definitely running a scam however I can understand how you didn’t want someone leaving your store very upset. Just know that karma will catch up to her and you will be blessed for always having a kind heart even when people don’t deserve it. Have a better tomorrow 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💕💕💕

  • @HistoryHighwithLisaMarrie
    @HistoryHighwithLisaMarrie 6 лет назад +2

    You mentioned some companies tell you to crop out the heads that's a tell tale sign that they don't have rights to the photos. Some of these wholesalers actually take pictures from RUclipsrs and other bloggers who are wearing their clothes and use them without permission. I wouldn't use any that tell you to crop out the heads.

  • @ruubytues
    @ruubytues 6 лет назад +3

    It sounds like she’s trying to get money from you or to make you take them down. If the company paid for a shoot for the clothes they would have gotten a signed document from the models and photographer transferring the rights to the company. That means the agency would have no rights over the photos.

    HANG IN THERE Alli, tomorrow is a new day. In the words of Dory "just keep swimming" :-) Also, if and when you have some time can you share a little more on what it was like to start the online store, share any tips you might have looking back. Your info has been super helpful and inspiring but would love to hear more of the online store side. Lastly, if you could go back would you do anything different? would you still start out with online store first before Brick and mortar? Hope Jessica is feeling better. Thank you SOO much for sharing your journey with us, it means more than you know!

    We all have days like this - even people who aren't self-employed. It's nice that you can share the ups AND the downs. Glad you didn't give up. I'm sure it's not easy, but you are SO good at this. I think that one of the most difficult things about brick and mortar retail is finding good, honest help. If you can do that, it makes the rest so much easier. Sending loads of love your way, aunt Kimmy XOXO

    I work in Retail and am trying to open up my own store. I have had customers bring back bras that had been worn for months. I believe there is a limit to what you as a customer should expect a store to take back. There are some people that are just out to see what they can get. Once her shrinking the clothes is iffy but twice an it isn't $50 it's hundreds of dollars. I wouldn't have taken them back. Your a good person and I am sorry that you had a really crappy day tomorrow will be better.

    You have truly been an inspiration by being so open honest & caring. I hope to get the courage you have in doing all that you do some day soon & have a boutique as well. I’m wondering if it might be time to consider hiring a ‘manager’. If you could find someone to trust & afford to delegate some responsibilities. Just thinking that running 3 businesses and a household might be too much for one! These messy things happen out there in the business world but it sounds like you needed someone to troubleshoot the minor issues so you could focus on the owner issues. This might be an alert to you that is an indication of growing pains! It might be time to expand in delegation for the growth that’s happening! God bless you & remember if you seek Him you will always be covered!🦋💖🙏🏼

    Yes.. I feel like owning your own business can be very stressful... It's almost like you're married to it. It comes with obstacles but can be very rewarding. But just remember as you learn and jump over these obstacles.... You are growing and what you didn't know or problems that arise here and there.. will make you more experienced and knowledgeable so even if it does repeat itself you know what to do in that situation and it will be a piece of cake. Sounds like you really going through it for just remember everything will get better with time. Sending all my love and positive energy!

    I manage a Plato’s Closet and they give us stock photos. We can only use them for a certain timeframe. Typically they have an agreement with the models to use their photos up to a year. After the photos are expired we can no longer use them. I wonder if it’s the same thing? Maybe the company that is allowing you to use the photos have an agreement with the modeling company and the person you talked to from the company wasn’t aware of that? Idk that’s so weird and that sucks. I’m sorry 😢 but you’re an inspiration so don’t let it get you down. 👑💕

I had someone actually call me last week and told me to get a piece of paper and named the store owner and company corporate franchise and said we’re in huge trouble and we owe money because of a financial situation between the owner and franchise. These people are good at their job and have scammed other Plato’s closets. Just be sure to train your employees to forward those calls to you- which they obviously did/do. 🤗👍🏼
