We normally would not include info

as to one’s passing in our Buyers’

Letter. However, so many of you

have visited our family stores for

many years and know our family well

but may not have known of our sis-

ter’s passing. Joanie owned Mor-

ton’s Jewelry and operated a shelter

for the homeless, House of Hope.

Brother, Louie, Morton’s Antiques.

Thank you for your prayers and kind-

nesses during the loss of our sister, Joan

Ward. Our Sister, Joan Morton Ward

Our Brother, Louis O. Morton, Jr.

Always and Always,

Linda Morton Norton, Kay Morton and

The Norton Shows!

I watched a dynamic young man last week on CBS Morning Show, Ja-son Silva. Google Him! He’s fascinating. Jason

(I am paraphrasing) encourages us to create space where ideas can develop, adding that

ideas can leap, mutate, innovate, interchange. Create ideas which will

force us out of our com-fort zone. He chal-

lenges us to be open, to get out of our box.

Sometimes hard to do but necessary.

Make a change which is

exponential. Don’t Walk Linearly! Walk

Exponentially! Safe is Mundane. We are

changing exponentially everyday. The world is changing. Billions of new ideas are being created. What new

forms of beauty will we create. What new ideas of business. Packaging is critical in selling new

ideas.

Apply this thought: Walk 30 feet linearly.

Then walk 10 x 30 feet exponentially. See how you’ve open your world, your surroundings, your influence. Attract, Add to your exposure. Sur-round, Captivate your

audience.

The CEO of MAGIC, also on CBS last

week, relates that elite fashion designers,

(Israel Mizrahi, Alexander MacQueen,

Jason Wu, Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la

Renta, Diane Furstenberg), during this

period of economic downtown, are doing

business with mass marketing.

He calls it the

DEMOCRATIZATION OF FASHION.

Isn’t that what we are doing, coming out

of the four walls of showrooms which are

sometime stifling, sometimes intimidat-

ing, relaxing ancient policies of

“factoring”, “minimums” and selling

cash-and-carry to buyers….who are

struggling to find new ways to create

business in a sea of trepidation.

Isn’t this “Getting Out of the Box”.

Isn’t this Conducting Our Business Expo-

nentially. Isn’t Presenting our Booths as

a 10 x 40 Showcase with four sides with

lots of room for new ideas, new fashions

and new buyers better than a safe 10 x 10

Box . And, Storeowners creating new

ideas and purchasing new merchandise,

meeting the needs of the buyers.
