The Ladder

I have been glancing through my blogs and I noticed that I tend to look at the retail industry with an "FYI" approach. As in, this is what you should look into before starting your own business or as a manager what key aspects are important. This is potentially the sign of many a marketing course as well as over 8 years of retail experience as an employee. Scarily enough, soon I will be on the other side of the employment ladder. OK, maybe just one small rung up the ladder. But this last year has had me trying to see the retail industry from three different sides: customer, employee, and employer.

There are so many facets to the retail industry. So many different choices and ways of doing things. Make the right choices and succeed. Make the wrong choices and, well, you won't have to worry for long. It makes this industry exciting and scary all at the same time. Fortunately for me, I love a challenge!
