Dear future Just Like a Woman Customer,
I'd like to invite you visit us at our
location on 6333 SW Macadam. You have probably driven past it, seen the
sandwich board with the purple corset on in, and wondered, "I wonder what
they do in there?" Very simply, we fit bras. Whether you have had a
mastectomy or just a difficult time finding a bra that fits, we can help! We
also fit women and men who need medical compression products.
In 2001, my dearest friend and business
partner, Fern Carness, MPH, RN had her second mastectomy and was unable to
find the post-surgical products that she needed. We both agreed that the
women in the Portland metropolitan area needed a place to find appropriate
undergarments in a safe and caring environment -Just Like a Woman opened her
doors just six months later! We felt that from cradle to grave, women are
always made to feel less than ... too small, too big, too scarred
-unacceptable. Our goal, from day one, has been to restore the amazing power
of the feminine. While Fern has since passed on, her vision and passion
lives on. We will always strive to help provide support, products,
information and compassion to everyone who visits us.
The drive might be a little confusing, but
once you have found us, you'll be glad you did! You will be greeted by one
of my experienced fitters or our store mascot, Paz, the Labradoodle. Don't
worry, she's hypo-allergenic, and, I think, is just a human in a dog suit!
You will then be escorted to one of our beautiful fitting rooms, where your
medical or fashion needs will be assessed and addressed. We take the
guesswork and frustration out of your search and will give our best effort
to have you leave a satisfied customer.
While we would like to think that everyone
leaves happy, we realize that sometimes that is not the case. If you leave
Just Like a Woman, and your experience has been less than satisfactory, I
want you to give me the chance to rectify that by offering you my personal
e-mail address:margy@iustlikeawoman.com. I will do my very best to make you
a happy, repeat customer.
My girls and I look forward to working with
you -you're going to love it -I promise!
Yours truly,
Margy Imlay, CMF
