Why does this strategy work for them?
•OSH is smaller than their Big-Box competitors•Women like accessible size and ambiance•Can create more personal experiences, due to store sizes, company size, etc, on and off line•Historically, women drawn to OSH stores•Not tied to “specific” market like contractors or heavy builders•Smaller projects appeal to women•Tone is not intimidating
