Patrick Keiser was in his barber’s chair when he had a powerful conversation that may just change the retail world. Patrick is the founder and executive director of Heart on Main Street.

The presence of small retailers is down 20% in the last 20 years, Heart on Main Street is a business designed to change that by helping and supporting these local fixtures.

Whether it's money and investments, information and education, resources, or a network; Patrick’s passion is to revive Main Street and help more than the current 1 in 3 retailers make it past the 2-year mark.

With Friends on Main Street, Patrick is creating a community of like-minded retailers and businesses relative to the retailer community to give business owners the help and support they actually need.

You have to hear Patrick's passion to push the narrative back to shopping locally. He has such great advice to retailers including something I am a huge advocate for; Find a mentor.

During our conversation one thing is abundantly clear, we are rooting for your success!
