- Mom Makers - Making a Brick and Mortar Location Work, with Jacqueline De’Ath and Dana Shortt (replay)
I know what you are thinking, Amazon is taking over the world and retail stores are dying by the day. Who would want to start or run a "brick and mortar" location now?
Well, my 2 guests have been doing so successfully for over a decade (almost 30 years between them), so let's listen to them!
Jacqueline De'Ath is the founder of Homeworks Etc. DIY, and she helps people create their own home decor through popular workshops, as well as retailing it in her workshop/store. She has been in business since 2007.
Dana Shortt founded Dana Shortt Gourmet in 2004. She moved from catering into a retail location that provides delicious foods for entertaining, and prepared meals.
I have samples both their wares and I can say they really know what they are doing!
So sit back and take some notes as we explore what it means to succeed in the challenging world of brick and mortar retail.
