LOCAL BUSINESS BOOST PROGRAM NARRATIVE CASE STUDY

Chantilly's Bridal
344 Main Street, Hyannis

Maria and Maria-Alice expressed the need to modernize their web presence with a new website that reflects their products and brand well and has online capabilities, to streamline the customer experience and better their chance of being found online. They also expressed the need to update their lounge area and décor to better reflect their brand and product.

Working with the Local Business Boost Program and Chantilly's Bridal was incredibly rewarding. I enjoy reimagining spaces as a means to increase customer satisfaction and sales. Maria and Maria-Alice were not only ready to enhance their space, but they spent a lot of time reorganizing their shop and inventory in order to make it happen. They are so dedicated to their business and brides - it is very admirable.
