Summary and Final post...

With the aid of these Technologies, I believe Gorgeous Garments will be a very successful store. The company has employed social media such as Facebook and Twitter for advertising in order to reach a large market. 

The company has also employed the use of databases and spreadsheets for effective recording and efficiency. Google Wallet was also included to give customers a wider variety of payment methods to increase their comfort.

Unix will be used to improve communication with to customers and employees. Our twitter account was also made so we could interact with our customers. Thus their worries, complaints and problems would reach us faster and we would be able to solve them.  We believe the company now has a solid ground to do very well in the business world and we believe Gorgeous Garments will add something new and exciting to the world of fashion.

Database on GG

Gorgeous Garments finds databases very useful for sorting and storing information. The company employs the use of database in its finance and accounts department.

The company uses Microsoft Access to create annual financial tables and reports. This helps us to be able to compare our profits and costs from previous years easily.

Databases makes data easily accessible and easy to find. As longer as data is entered correctly, the database reduces errors and increases data constituency.

Unix in Gorgeous Garments....

Unix is a very useful tool in the business world and this is why Gorgeous Garments plans to use Unix to reach its customers. We plan to use Unix to send news of news in-store arrivals and clearances to customers.

Unix will help us save time because it would be faster than sending it directing via email. This will help us because we can direct the spare time into the the production of new clothes.

We also plan to use Unix within the office as well to send urgent messages to employees about emergency meetings or if there is a change in decisions by management.

Gorgeous Garments uses Google Wallet

Gorgeous Garments plans to make the use of Google Wallet available to customers thus easing the stress of shopping. This program will help improve security in the store because the store will not cary a lot of cash thus preventing crime.

Google Wallet will also protect our customers from crime because it is more secure than carrying a wallet because even if a customer's phone is stolen, a pin is still needed to access the Google Wallet.

The customers will also not be able to make wrong payments because the phone has to be 4cm away from the point of payment for the transactions to go through. Gorgeous Garments will encourage customers to adopt the use of Google because of its many advantages.

Protecting customers From Identity Theft

We at Gorgeous Garments are very aware of the dangers of identity theft and we plan to protect our customers from it. As a result of about 50% of our customers falling into the age range of people more prone to identity theft, we have developed a program teaching how to avoid identity theft via Email.

In the course of this program, we will encourage customers to use credit cards instead of debit cards. We will also encourage them to keep their credit cards and social security numbers very securely. Customers will also be encouraged to check their credit regularly.

As a company will also do our part to protect our customers by keeping files very securely. The company will also dispose of replaced computers properly and most especially shred replaced hard drives in order to avoid customer details getting into the wrong hands.
