Recently, Temple University students, Sofia\u00a0Spadotto<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Safaniya\u00a0Paul<\/a>, worked on a digitization project for The Resource Exchange<\/a>. Karyn Gerred says…<\/p>\n

[The business] is an environmentally focused thrift shop, gallery + maker space that saves material from landfill for creative reuse<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, the pandemic forced The Resource Exchange to pivot to online sales, and the business needed help improving their website for ecommerce. Spadotto says…<\/p>\n

TRE\u2019s website needed a new host, the addition of an e-commerce system, and a cosmetic redesign that was conducive to easy edits for the TRE team<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The students worked over the course of a few weeks to improve The Resource Exchange\u2019s website and social media. Paul says…<\/p>\n

I was able to extend my assistance in the social selling area, where I integrated the e-commerce site with Instagram and Facebook<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

An updated digital presence\u00a0for The Resource Exchange\u00a0was immensely helpful during COVID-19. Gerred says…<\/p>\n

The upgrades to our website will not only broaden the ways that we can serve our community but have also already helped us to streamline our operations. This way our dedicated staff can focus more of their efforts on what matters most!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The project was supervised by\u00a0Martin Doyle<\/a>.<\/p>\n
