Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from tailors in Torquay every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
No way for customers to see your range of services
Alterations, bespoke suits, curtains, repairs — if your website doesn't list everything, customers only call for the basics.
Alteration and bespoke clients going elsewhere
Customers pick the tailor with the best reviews and website. If that's not you, you're losing work.
People don't know there's a proper tailor nearby
Many people assume tailoring is expensive or hard to find locally. A visible Google Maps listing shows them you're right on their doorstep.
Wedding suit enquiries going to chains
Grooms search online months before the wedding. If you're not visible, they'll go to a chain that charges more for less personal service.

Enquiries tend to peak in Spring and Autumn, though professionals needing suit alterations, brides and grooms, people needing clothing repairs need help throughout the year.
