The Value of Bartering for Small Business Owners

The value of bartering. In 2015 we opened our Brick and Mortar store. My sister and I bootstrapped our little business, The Salvaged Boutique – a home decor store, so funds for luxury items were low. Since we had recently opened, the store was full of inventory. Including this beautiful vintage sofa that we refurbished. Soon…

My name is Kathy Cruz! I’m a fellow retail business owner and Retail Coach. My journey into retail started in 2013 when I launched a creative DIY blog with my sister. We grew from a blog to a brick and mortar home decor store in 2 years.

During this time, I took my deep passion for learning all-things-retail and launched a second blog, Savvy Shopkeeper so I could help other retailers just like me.

The Savvy Shopkeeper blog has also taken a journey. From a blog to a podcast and an online Academy just for retailers.

I’m on a mission to help independent retail business owners work less, profit more and grow! I’m glad you’re here and hope you find the information I share helpful.
