“The articles help me to know that other
retailers have some of the same issues
that I do. Hearing how they handle these
trials is beneficial to me.”

We do a lot of displays, so it’s nice to see
photos of other stores and how they have
combined the product(s) available.”
—Holly Bertucci, The Dance Bag, Modesto, CA
“I like to read the New Arrivals section to
see if there are any cool products that
I missed out on. I also love reading the
Designs & Displays section for new ideas.”
—Dena Raftery, Paradiddle’s Dancewear,
Accessories & Gifts, Lake Charles, LA
—Josephine Lee, Dancer’s Choice, Irvine, CA
“I’ve found a few vendors we weren’t
aware of because they were featured
in the magazine. The companies we’ve
added to our inventory have been huge
successes. Some smaller vendors may not
have reps, so it’s nice to see DRN feature
them. I feel more confident ordering from
those companies. They seem more reliable
when DRN features them.”

Do you ever refer back to past
issues? If so, how long do you
tend to save an issue?
“I will usually save my issues for at least
a year.”
—Holly Bertucci, The Dance Bag, Modesto, CA
—Dena Raftery, Paradiddle’s Dancewear,
Accessories & Gifts, Lake Charles, LA
“When a fashion item appears, I take a
closer look at it when my sales reps bring
their samples. Knowing that an item is
featured gives me confidence that it is
appealing to others as well.”

a market that is otherwise very difficult to reach.”
