MERCHANDISING SHELF APPEAL 101

When building a headwear collection, VINTAGE LABEL COLLEGIATE ARCH
the key to success lies in having a good FELT APPLIQUE FRAYED TWILL APPLIQUE
assortment. Ahead was built around a
concept of “the more you show, the more
you sell”. Your customers have a wide range
of interests, tastes and styles. In order to
attract all of them to your collection, your
headwear graphics and styles need to be
varied too.

“Shelf Appeal” comes in many different
forms. It can be as simple as changing up
the sizes of your core logos. It can mean
offering raised “bounce” stitch embroidery
versus traditional direct embroidery. Twill
or felt appliques add visual texture, and
a tactile quality. A printed Vintage Label
or Frayed Twill Patch gives a casual and
tattered look that works great for the
customer who prefers to wear mesh backed
caps and jeans with holes in them. History
majors may be drawn to established dates,
student athletes to sports related graphics
and conservative business majors to smaller
logos on Ahead Oxford Prep conservative/
preppy headwear styles (they look great with
bow ties and blazers).

In the end, you simply need as many
different “looks” as you can showcase as a
means of getting a sale from everyone who
walks up to the cap wall.
The more you show, the more you sell.
