Top Story

We see a lot of social media with what we think is a "sympathy plea" do do business with local small businesses.

 

It is not going to work. People select where they do business based on positive reasons. We discuss what we are seeing.

Article of the Month

A timely article for the holiday season. With any business that has inventory, are you looking at sales per square foot? Are you looking to see which is the most valuable space in your business? You can increase sales by knowing which items to place where.


Book of the Month

Fix This Next by Mike Michalowicz. We love this description of the book; The biggest problem entrepreneurs have is that they do not know what their biggest problem is.

 

If you find yourself trapped between stagnating sales, staff turnover, and unhappy customers, what do you fix first? Every issue seems urgent - but there is no way to address all of them at once. The results? A business that continues to go in endless circles putting out urgent fires and prioritizing the wrong things.
