How I went from a stressed, overworked retailer to helping hundreds of retail store owners reach their goals
Stephen Fingerman
President
My first job after college was working for a department store chain where I learned about operations, buying and store management.
My experience was often trial by fire which gave me plenty of opportunities to learn from my mistakes. Over time I realized most retailers face the challenges I had. But there were not a lot of sources for help. That lead me to start Avalon in 1996 where I learned how small businesses should work.
From these experiences I learned the skills I use to help our clients grow their business and hopefully avoid some of the mistakes I made.
But I couldn't do it without the team
Our talented team knows what it takes to be successful in the evolving retail industry. We apply our own experience and the knowledge gained from working with hundreds of retail businesses to the growth of our clients. Whether you’re starting up, trying to grow more profitable or preparing to pass your business on, we can help you too!
