It's Time To Create A Retail Business That Meets Your Goals

But it’s not as easy as just buying and selling merchandise

Many stores struggle or even fail because they don’t focus on the key details.  In an industry where 5% profit is the norm, there’s not a lot of room for error.

Retail is hard, time consuming work.  But to be successful you have to: Make the right decisions;  Choose and use the optimal information; Manage your employees and outside resources.

We're Passionate About Our Clients' Success

We will approach your business with a long term commitment to your success.  Each month we’ll conduct a detailed meeting where we’ll review new and existing issues regarding all aspects of your business as well as analyzing the latest data to form effective actions.  Then during the month we’re available as any questions or concerns arise.

Enhance Your Critical Decision-Making

Take advantage of our years of retail experience to help you make effective decisions to grow profitably.  The retail industry is extremely competitive which discourages sharing information.  As a result, owners have a hard time getting answers to critical questions.  Whether it’s a small or major decision, we will provide you with the advice and coaching based on our holistic experience with hundreds of stores and our own time working in the retail industry.

Grow With Clear And Effective Analytics

No one ever went into retail to do math!  There can be an overwhelming amount of information available to you and it’s hard to decide which is important.  We will use the available data to create customized analysis in understandable formats.  Each month we’ll review them together so you have a clear understanding of the best actions to take.    These often include buying plans, sales forecasts, cash flow planning, POS reports and financial analysis.  

Optimize Your Employees And Outside Resources

We’ll help you manage and optimize your employees and outside resources with greater results and less stress.  Your employees can help make your store successful.  But they come with the challenges of management, compensation and the many issues that can arise.  When it comes to third party resources such as CPAs, book keepers, social media/web services and landlords, it’s hard to know if you’re getting the best results.  Using our experience, we can advise you how to optimize all of them.

These are just some of the areas we can focus on to help you successfully grow your retail business.  Contact us to learn more about what we can do for you and your business.
