178. REPLAY: Five Things Independent Retailers Aren't Taught About Planning

The 2023-2024 Savvy Shopkeeper Digital Planner is launching soon! That means it's the perfect time to revisit the five things I wish I'd known about planning for my retail business early on. When your store is brand new (or still just a dream!), it's challenging to think about the future because you're focused on the now. During my Aspiring Retailer and Savvy Starter stages, knowing how to plan would have been incredibly helpful. And now that I've learned about planning, it's a key part of my journey as a shopkeeper! Listen in to the five things indie retailers aren't taught—but should know!—about planning.
