It doesn't matter whom you hire to help the design

It doesn't matter whom you hire to help the design or other aspects of your retail business if you don't know or work on the important metrics.⁠
⁠
A recent call with a client revealed she invested thousands of dollars on courses, consultants, and feeling like she needed an Instagram-worthy store to succeed... and after all she had NO IDEA that if she doesn't improve her profit margins and drastically reduce her rent to sales ratio - her business would close. ⁠
⁠
There are some women who invest deeply in improving their businesses but still aren't finding the right resource and the help they need and there are some women who are afraid to invest. There's a happy middle! There really is. ⁠
⁠
If you want to DIY and learn at your own pace, join Blooming Shopkeepers - it's open to ALL types of shopkeepers. ⁠
⁠
If you're a brick and mortar store owner and you want more accountability, monthly focused classes and group calls, join Master Shopkeepers - applications open the last week of January.⁠
⁠
If you want one-on-one coaching with direct answers AND accountability - book 1:1 coaching calls with me.⁠
⁠
None of these will cost you thousands and you'll get the answers and support you NEED. Go to the Shopkeeper's Academy to sign up today. https://www.shopkeepersacademy.com/ or head to the Academy link in my bio.⁠

I love traveling for @thesalvagedboutique and @savvyshopkeeper because I get to do this. Meetup with women in our communities!
The service and food situation might have been a mess but these ladies all handled it with grace. What was more important was that we connected, shared stories AND we shared resources with each other.
A special thank you to @embroidery_from_the_heart @peachtreestreethome @missdaisysjoplin @mainstreettradingco for making this such a fun night!
