Why Blush??
A short name that is memorable"-- one of my favorite stores in Austin is called Strut", quoted Amanda. In my opinion, I think that Blush is a cute and catchy name that everyone would recognize easily as well as it reflecting the elegant pieces in the store. :)

Bold, Brilliant, and Beautiful, Amanda Clark an alumni of the University of Oklahoma and the University of Texas in Austin, is now here in Norman because she feels the most comfortable here individually opening a store. :) She owns a chic boutique in campus corner on 566 Buchanan Ave, Suite E. of Norman, Oklahoma. Amanda graduated with a degree in Publication at OU and a degree in Advertising at UT. Her hometown is Velma, Oklahoma, about a 1 hour and 15 min drive from Norman. Amanda has been married for four years with a beautiful daughter named Chloe. In between the time of after graduating and opening Blush, she was in an agency and a marketing job, but she ended up missing work relating with retail thus her business, Blush became her answer. Amanda's parents owns a boutique store, one that is western instead of the trendy store (that is still up and running!), that prepared her to be ready in the marketing business. She also had experience with working in Shoetopia, during college, gaining the knowledge of how college customers react to fashion! Blush opened in the August of 2007 offering a one stop shop for events, dates, or just casual wear. Because of her past experiences in the marketing field, her transaction to this store came natural to her. All she needed was time until documentation and conformation completed for here to begin her successful business.

Amanda Clark is simply sincere. While asked if she considered the other stores on campus corner as a competitor, she kindly answered no, with all of the different stores, it becomes a mass shopping center. As of trends, she states "How I keep up is by trying to go to Los Angles every three months". The other boutiques keep her on her "toes" so that she is always caught up. Always with a positive attitude, she explains that with retail, you have to make the decisions even if its very difficult and face what you get out of it. For example, with the clothing or accessories that do not sell as well because she had made the decision in buying it, she has to sell it at a lower price to at least not lose profit. Blush is a store where you can find similar items such as what Lucca has to offer. Because she was a recent college student, she realized that students need new clothes but has to keep a budget, and her store offers that kind of quality. Blush has unique pieces of clothing to accessories that only come in three to six pieces making it an exclusive opportunity to shine compared to Forever 21, a massive trendy clothing store.

An example in leadership for Amanda is with her five employees that work for her. With their work ethics, she expects the leaders to take the initiative to complete duties on time without being dependent. She wants to know that when she leaves the store just for one of the workers, the employee would fulfill the task in managing the store by their self and not let any dangers come to them or the store. A leader to Amanda is a self-motivated person that knows when things need to be done, such as tidying up the floor before closing the store down. Also, she considers qualities such as listening, following, and paying attention because if you get too focused in being the leader, you will miss out on the little important things that could probably be the best advice.

Overall, Amanda Clark is a talented young woman whom likes to succeed. One day I want to enter the field in business as successful as she us. Given the knowledge and artistic abilities to run, decide, and finish as she did makes me strive for the better future.
