Well were here along hay street mother here on phase hays street in San Francisco or fillmore street or youre in Chestnut Street or somewhere else in the marina union street most of these retail corridors are empty they should start picking up as early as monday with that curbside retail, but some stores are better set to do Curbside Pickup than others and that means some stores are going to have to pivot to trying to lure in customers even if its only to the outside of their place of business.

Curbside Pickup Curbside ballet but ron benitez who own San Franciscos Assembly Hall says Clothing Stores like his. Now have additional challenges because customers cannot brows touch or try anything on the whole point of a small boutique like ours to showcase. These unique pieces that you cant find anywhere else state cant find a larger retailers and things like that as a result Assembly Hall will be turning to social media platforms like instagram to help fill the gap with videos. Now its almost like a virtual sales meeting our presentations and then you know something that i would do in a fitting room, but now im doing with a mannequin. And so utilizing these videos and these kind of touch points to now and access our consumer in a different way when these covered up windows are open again, youll also see different types of displays were going to utilize our windows to showcase product that you dont have to necessarily try on the earrings bow ties neck ties hats beanies and things like that. So you can kind of look at it i think those kind of things customers are pretty confident about how its going to see it how its going to wear and so were going do thats still retailers like the need as are concerned the long term Curbside Pickup wont generate enough money to keep them in business, im really nervous. And were really scared that you know here it is you know we have to pay this x amount of rent but were only doing Curbside Pickup, i mean were barely even. Im you know, im is thats just not the be the model of our business in the model of a boutique. Again Curbside Pickup and delivery slated to start in San Francisco on monday.
