Your Shopkeeping Journey Doesn’t Have To Be Lonely
Independent Retailers are craving connection and helpful information
that’s specific to running a retail brick and mortar business.
Welcome to a kind, supportive group membership for retailers
The size of your business doesn’t matter. What matters is your heart and drive.
You want to be surrounded by like-minded shopkeepers. You want to figure this “how to run a retail store” thing out. You don’t want your business to consume your life. You want to find biz besties who get you. You want to understand the back end of your business (the financials, the bookkeeping, the systems) as much as you love the front of your business (the customers, the merchandise, the creativity).
Ready to work less, profit more and grow?
You’re willing to do the work, you just need the supportive friends and the right resources!
This is where Indie Retailers often struggle.
You know what?
I’ve been in your shoes..
I’m Kathy Cruz, Founder & CEO of Savvy Shopkeeper. I also felt lonely, uneducated, misinformed and sometimes clueless when I started my own store in 2013.
I craved valuable lessons to help me and my business grow, friends to cheer me on and a community to be inspired by but I couldn’t find it.
So I bossed up and became a Retail Business Coach. I now lead a group mastermind for brick and mortar retail business owners just like me, all while still running a home decor store with my sister in Ohio!

Kathy, you teach, encourage, and challenge us all each day. I know that before being a part of the group I truly had no clue what I was doing. Now I have a clue and I’m getting a handle on running a real business!!
