Identification of Market Needs
Despite the current economic slowdown, the sale of both high-end retailers and luxury products continue as one of the few “real” economic growth areas. Dominant handbag brands have consistently produced 20-35% quarterly revenue increases. Integrating incremental ownership into the equation presents a compelling opportunity for both long and short-term growth by enabling the consumer to stretch their buying power of luxury priced goods. Customers recognize the value inherent in luxury goods and the “mass-tique” paradigm shift continues to gain momentum. From Bags To Riches provides a simple,
new, and timely cost-effective solution to the growing consumer luxury market.

Customers will be exposed to product, service, and operational enhancements in FBTR cross-synergistic functionality thereby multiplying the effectiveness of each.
To further develop FBTR web-based and home party market focused strategy, the company will evolve its organization into separate business units.
