In November 2012, Polyvore released the much-anticipated app for iPhones, iPads, and the iPod Touch.
Team up with other brands or retailers alike and present them with the idea of swapping sets or collections to increase your reach. Although make sure they’re not your direct competition. If you’re a shoe retailer, perhaps think of swapping with a local handbag retailer.
When uploading products to Polyvore with the Clipper Tool, consider uploading products with simple and/or solid backgrounds. White backgrounds tend to work best.
Run contests on a consistent basis in order to keep fans engaged and anticipating the next one.
