Uptown Cheapskate is more than a
clothing franchise.
It is an attitude, a personality, and an art form. Uptown
Cheapskate
empowers individuals to express themselves using brand name fashions
and modern style without the typical price tag. The clothing
concept
is simple really: we buy and sell your favorite brands at prices that
everyone can get excited about. We’re not trying to change
the world;
just offer an exciting new way to shop it.
The Company
Uptown Cheapskate is a sister company of
Kid to Kid an
award winning children's product franchise with over 16 years of
experience in the resale industry and more than 80 stores in the US and
Europe. we've carefully studied the teen/young adult segment,
identified its needs, and have the tools, know-how, and resources to
meet the needs of our clients and customers.
Generation Y consumers have rich
tastes and
preferences in addition to being sophisticated and brand conscious that
must be satisfied as quickly as possible. Since their expendable income
is limited, they are forced to be value-minded. Many are world wise and
share a general concern for the earth and the future and tend to favor
retail concepts that share their concerns.
Studies show that Uptown
Cheapskate's target
demographic, Generation Y, is poised to rival the Baby Boomers in terms
of sheer economic impact.
Training
Every clothing franchise owner receives a
comprehensive
training program in our state of the art training facility in Salt Lake
City. During your time with us we prepare you to meet the challenges of
business ownership. You will get hands-on training in how to identify
and buy fashionable clothing, merchandise them, attract and retain
customers and employees, and account for your money (and everything in
between). We also require that you go through an internship program at
another Uptown Cheapskate store to receive more hands on training.
Marketing
Our marketing materials are as
sophisticated and
engaging as they are practical. Developed from the ground up to target
Generation Y consumers, they provide an upscale, consistent feel to
build customer confidence and loyalty. Uptown Cheapskate is committed
to keeping its radar tuned to the latest and most effective marketing
approaches. More than any other demographic, Generation Y is strongly
tied to electronic mediums - which also is a versatile and effective
way to reach them.
