279. From Nearly Giving Up to Growing Again: The Numbers That Saved This Retail Store. A Shopkeeper Story with Vintage Green Review.

What if the biggest thing holding your retail business back isn't your location, your products, or even your marketing? In this Shopkeeper Story, Kathy sits down with Sarah Andert, owner of Vintage Green Review in New Orleans, to talk about the financial and operational changes that transformed her business from feeling hopeless to growing again. Sarah shares the practical lessons that helped her improve cash flow, increase margins, eliminate chronic out-of-stock issues, simplify her customer experience, and make smarter decisions using data instead of guesswork. Whether you're struggling with inventory, signage, staffing, or profitability, this episode is packed with actionable takeaways you can apply in your own store.
