Look at the Big Picture
If you want to be successful against your competition, you must look at every aspect of your business. This means your marketing, your training, and even your storefront.
Be Specific with Your Merchandise
You don’t have to carry five different brands of the same product. You can sell the one right brand.
Create Unique Experiences
Give people a reason to come to your store that is not just a product.
