My name is Jessica Goldenberg and I am the owner and founder of Nomad, The Wandering Fashion Boutique. Based in New York City, Nomad is a boutique-on-wheels selling women’s clothing, jewelry, and accessories from a retrofitted delivery truck which wanders about the city. On the road since April of 2013, Nomad makes frequent stops in lower Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and often takes mini road trips to colleges in the region. We operate just as a typical brick and mortar boutique would – fitting room and all – except with the added convenience of bringing the product directly to our customer!
More often than not, we are catching our customers on the go – on their lunch breaks, walking their dogs, on their way to the subway – so time, and again convenience, is always of the essence. We have accepted credit and debit cards from day 1 by using a mobile point of sale (MPOS) on my tablet, and so far this year they have contributed to 82% of our sales. Credit and debit card payments allow our customers to pay swiftly and easily, and allow my two employees a much more secure checkout than handling cash in a tight space with a lot of chaos around (we only have about 100 square feet on board!)
Accepting credit and debit card payments allows me to make less frequent trips to the bank and to better track my cash flow. Furthermore, it adds to our overall, on- the-go experience: the technology is simple and secure, check out is done right there on our Ipad, and a receipt is eemailed. It’s a fun, mobile experience for all involved!

Great job for publishing such a beneficial website. Your web log isn’t only useful, but it is additionally really creative too.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
