Your shop window isn't competing with other shops anymore. It's competingย 
with Instagram, TikTok, and whatever's on people's phones as they walk past.

In this video, I break down why most shop windows fail (the โ€˜Stuff Windowโ€™)ย 
and how to create windows that make people stop scrolling with their feetย 
(the โ€˜Story Windowโ€™).

You'll learn:
โ€ข The two types of windows (and which one works)
โ€ข Why your window is competing with the infinite scroll
โ€ข The four principles that make windows scroll-stopping
โ€ข The one-sentence test that reveals if your window works
โ€ข One action to take this week to improve your display

ABOUT:
I'm Keith Lockwood. For 30+ years I've helped retailers from corner shopsย 
to global chains create scroll-stopping layouts and profitable shops. Everyย 
Week, I share one practical retail strategy adapted for independent shops.

This week's video draws from Chapter 2 of my book, The Reluctant Retailer,ย 
specifically the concept of the โ€˜silent salespersonโ€™ working 24/7.
