When you started your retail business (whether that was 20 days ago, or 20 years ago), chances are you were passionate about your product and excited about the freedom of running your own store.

Then reality sets in: Retail is HARD!

You’re probably working longer hours than you anticipated and your profit margins may not be as high as you wanted them to be. Dealing with employees is stressful and getting customers to come in the door, well, if that was your only challenge, you’d consider yourself lucky.

The thing is, to run a truly successful store…

You have to master all ELEVEN essential retail skills including:

• Marketing your business to get new customers (and get your existing customers to come back over and over again!).  If they don’t come, they don’t buy. Marketing is what connects you to your customers and their cash. If you figure this part out a lot of other things can start to fall in place.
• Finding, hiring and training the right staff (they’re essential to your success!). Your employees are the ones standing face to face with your customers and bringing – or failing to bring – money into your store. And the wrong ones are often the source of your biggest headaches!
• Systematizing your store operations so your store runs on rails (even when you’re not in the store to crack the whip). Having the right policies, procedures, and forms in place will save you an enormous amount of time, energy, and headaches.
• Managing your inventory (without overbuying or running out of bestsellers). Spending the right amount on the right merchandise has a big impact on the amount on the bottom line. This is critical to putting more of your cash in the bank rather than having it sit on your shelves.
• Understanding all the financial stuff (even if you don’t love math or have a degree in accounting). The fact of the matter is you must have a competent grasp of your balance sheets, P&L statements, and cash flow… so that you’re not flying blind and running your business by the seat of your pants.
• Planning a merchandise assortment your customers will love – and not just love, but BUY. A store full of cool stuff that just sits on the shelves is a recipe for retail disaster. You need to know that you’ve got the right merchandise coming at the right time.
• Creating a service culture that SELLS! Selling isn’t pushy, sleazy, or rude. Helping each and every customer leave with their “Perfect Purchase” is the #1 activity of every retail store. Great selling is great customer service – and what puts the maximum money in your bank account.
• Leveraging the power of the internet to drive traffic and strengthen relationships with your current customers. This is HUGE part of every indie retailers business success… you have to both understand the underlying marketing strategies AND keep up with the constant changes in the digital world.
• Creating displays and windows that not only look good, but also cause your customer to buy. Visual merchandising is really nothing more and nothing less than the in-store marketing of your goods and services!
• Delivering consistently great customer service that’s systematic, not hit-or-miss. You rarely get a second chance if your customer doesn’t get an amazing experience in your store. They just go away… off to the internet, a big box, or one of your local competitors.
• And last but certainly not least, getting control of your personal habits, skills, and mindsets. Stuff like how you manage your time, your commitment to learning, and how you respond when things go wrong. These things are a huge underlying part of your success as a business owner!

If you haven’t mastered ALL eleven skills… then you are on the fastest track to burnout, fatigue, frustration or even closing your doors for good. But trying to figure it out all by yourself is flat out exhausting. And unnecessary. We have done all the work for you!

Here’s what you’ll discover in each of the 11 modules in the Retail Mastery System:

A passion for your product and a talent in one or two of these areas can get you started, but it’s simply not enough to create a super-successful, long-term business.

You may already be feeling it. You may find yourself hunched over your computer late at night to organize your finances, or skipping breakfast because you’ve got to hurry and open the store. You may be stressed out about how to increase your profit margin or how to hire and train a much-needed employee.

And if you continue to put off mastering these eleven skills and hope the pieces of the puzzle will somehow magically fall together… Nothing is going to change. You’re not going to see the kind of success you deserve until you take action.
