We teach you how to build a business around your customers, your colleagues, your suppliers & collaborators, your employees, shareholders & your investors?

It's about focusing your mind on the right things, asking yourself the right questions, finding the right answers, making the correct decisions... and planning how to act on those decisions!

  • Understand how COVID lockdowns made the customer question more than ever what is essential to them, including possessions, purchases and retailers

  • Appreciate that to be essential to your customers you cannot be anything less than exceptional in everything that you do!

  • Learn to master the 2 fundamental types of connection - 'Functional & Emotional!' Learn the dangers of just being functional, and competing head-to-head with the likes of Amazon. Understand that every product purchase must involve emotions!

  • Learn to love Amazon! And love to learn from Amazon!

  • Learn never to under-estimate the emotional power of price & promotions!

  • Understand that a great customer experience is one that does not allow your customer to fail in their shopping mission! Appreciate that every experience must be outstanding!

  • Question how much emotional connections actually mean to your customer? Should you be essential beyond simply stocking and selling products?

  • Appreciate that loyal customers and their footfall are ‘Gold Dust!’ You must be flexible and empathetic and build ’rounded’ and ‘complete’ relationships with them. Learn how to have the capacity to RESPOND!

  • Learn that retailers have a much wider responsibility than just delivering sales and profit, if they want to be truly essential.

  • Consider as a brand, who you have the biggest responsibility to? Who is essential for your survival and your success? How do you prioritise customers, colleagues, collaborators, suppliers and investors?

The course objectives

No.1: To make your business better. No.2: To develop you as a retail professional.

  • 1. Self Appraisal

    'The Complete Retail Entrepreneur' courses begin with self-assessment exercises, to analyse your personal & business progress, and to identify course strategies.

  • 2. Action Plans

    For each chapter of the course, carry out brainstorming workshops to identify key business and personal opportunities. Then evolve action plans to turn those opportunities into realities.

  • 3. Business Strategy Document & Personal Development Plan

    Develop a ‘Business Strategy Document’ to drive forwards improvements in your business and a ‘Personal Development Plan’ to build valuable new career skills.

Payment flexibility.

Disruptive entrepreneurial businesses need to build traditional best practices, whilst existing retailers must forget the past, and invest in new processes & people. We all need to keep building!
