Why is it important to know your numbers?

Maybe you’re not a numbers person, so you don’t worry too much about that side of the business. As long as you’ve got the basics covered, you’re good, right? I think you need to know more than just the basics in order for your business to thrive, so I invited a special guest onto the show to help me explain why. 

That’s right, in this episode we’re talking all about numbers. 

Our guest expert, Ciara Stockeland, breaks things down in a simple, non-scary way so that you can understand your numbers without being intimidated or overwhelmed. She’s teaching us how to get to know your numbers without being a bookkeeper or accountant. 

Ciara Stockeland has owned and operated businesses since her early teens.  As a serial entrepreneur, her business mindset and tenacity led her to open her first store, Mama Mia, a high-end maternity store located in Fargo, ND, in 2006.  Shortly after, she developed and opened MODE, a designer outlet store located next to Mama Mia. In 2008, Ciara chose to merge her two concepts into MODE and developed the concept into a franchise. Her vast experience in both retail and wholesale industries led her to launch the first to market wholesale subscription box for boutique retailers, which she built and sold within 18 months. Most recently Ciara has launched the Boutique Workshop, a coaching program for retailers.

Ciara has been recognized as a Small Business Champion through SCORE and most recently was awarded the Outstanding Franchise Small Business Award.  She is active with SCORE, the largest network of expert business mentors across the nation. Through her coaching program, the Boutique Workshop, Ciara strives to motivate boutique owners to dream big and build simply. 

Whether you’re a business owner or not, come learn how to improve your life by knowing your numbers!
