At whatever point the association posts another discharge or photos of its articles of clothing, all its Facebook “fans” normally get the information isolated Facebook pages. “We have to hear what our customers need to say,” says Joseph Skerritt, the energetic MBA graduate who set up Proper Cloth. “It’s important to us and allows our customers to feel connected with Proper Cloth.” [3] Skerritt similarly forms a site for the association.
