The Meeting of the Enterprise Warminster group, held on Tuesday 4th December 2012, at Warminster Civic Centre, discussed the present position with regard an online My High Street presence for Warminster retailers to offer their products to local people who prefer to shop via the internet.
Michelle Doyle, who is not only a member of Enterprise Warminster but also the proprietor of the Serendipity gift shop in the Market Place, Warminster, said she had had very limited time to investigate this idea, but the few retailers she had contacted were not very positive about it. She had spoken to retailers in the Wells and Castle Cary scheme for MyHigh.St and had discovered that membership of the scheme involves being pro-active to make it work effectively. The consensus was that businesses in those two aforementioned towns in Somerset were glad they had joined the scheme, which had been slow in getting going but was now growing in strength. It was imperative that participating shops and businesses keep their lists of products and goods up-to-date online in order to achieve success.
Enterprise Warminster agreed to go ahead with inviting representatives of MyHigh.St to give a presentation in Warminster during January 2013. Veronica Mills, the Co-ordinator for Enterprise Warminster, will notify Michelle Doyle of dates the meeting rooms at Warminster Civic Centre are available for the proposed presentation.
