Isossy Children loves discovering useful resources for the parents who buy our clothes for their children, so we were super excited to meet Sally Hall and learn about her e-commerce site DorothyandTheodore.com. Read this great interview to find out about her business journey and be inspired!
What inspired you to start your
business?
As parents, we have spent considerable amounts of time trawling
the internet to find products that meet both our needs as parents and the
desires of our children without us having to wholly compromise on our own sense
of personal style, along with time wasted searching fruitlessly for that
perfect, really special gift.
Recognising this gap in the market led us to the solution that is
dorothyandtheodore.com, a multi-vendor e-commerce site where customers can
purchase a wide range of beautiful products from a number of different sellers
and only have to checkout once.
What have been your favourite
client experiences?
We are really passionate about what we stand for as a brand and are
fortunate to work with some amazing sellers who create beautiful things. One of the gifts we have is a handmade
traditional rag doll whose hair colour and style, eye and skin colour can all
be made to match their owners. We have
had some wonderful feedback from customers who have bought this and other
unique gifts for their loved ones, and it always creates a huge sense of
satisfaction that we are able to share these truly special products with
others.
What advice would you give to
someone starting up in your industry?
Both the baby and the e-commerce industries are highly competitive. It takes huge amounts of hard work and time
to make a mark in this industry, but if you are passionate about what you do
and really believe in your brand, it is absolutely worth the effort.
What are your long term goals?
We hope that www.dorothyandtheodore.com will
become the one stop shopping solution for parents who, like us, think that
practical can be beautiful and that gifts should be as unique as they are.
Isossy Children celebrates
diversity through global clothing for children. Why do you think diversity
matters for every generation?
Our children are our future. Their
diversity in terms of their backgrounds, colour, race, creed, beliefs,
religions and all round individual personalities is what makes the world a
wonderful place to live. We can learn so
much from our grandparents, parents and peers but, at Dorothy & Theodore,
we believe that we learn the most form our children.
What words of wisdom do you think
every child should grow up knowing?
Believe in yourself. Stand up for
your morals, your goals, your beliefs and never be someone you are not.
